Belstaff Ariel Wax Cotton Jacket In Black

The Belstaff Ariel  jacket has formed part of the Belstaff Pure Motorcycle collection for many years. It is about as basic and simple as a wax cotton jacket gets and that is what makes it so easy to wear.

Now waxed cotton, in its own right, is reasonably waterproof, but the Ariel also has a waterproof membrane. The jacket has no thermal inner. It is lined in a traditional tartan material, and as with all Belstaffs the collar and cuffs are corduroy lined.

The Ariel has a simple popper arrangement at the collar and at the waist. It also has a lowered back so that it sits below the belt line when you are on a motorbike.

The jacket is CE approved, D3O armour comes as standard in the elbows and shoulders and there is a pocket for a back protector. In terms of pockets, you get one horizontal zip pocket on the left breast and two zipped, lower pockets. There’s a Napoleon pocket inside the jacket. The rest really is just detail, but as it’s a Belstaff, it’s very nice detail!
