Belstaff Crosby Wax Cotton Jacket In Granite Grey

The Crosby has long been a favourite of ours here at Motolegends. The shorter Brooklands Mojave is sportier, but it can sit a little high at the back when you’re on the bike. The Trialmaster, by contrast, can sit a little long on some people. For us, the Crosby is the perfect length; not too long, not too short.

The jacket comes with a check lining and corduroy in the collar. You get four pockets on the outside and one inside. There is adjustment at the neck, at the waist and at the ends of the sleeves. Under the arms you get metal aerators, and the bottom two lowest buttons are rubberised Obviously, the Crosby comes with a waterproof membrane. D3O armour is fitted in the elbows and shoulder, and there’s a pocket for a back protector. There’s no thermal in the jacket but, for us, that’s not an issue; you just layer up.
