Belstaff is a well known outfit manufacturer especially among us motorcyclists, their tourist/trial master jackets were pretty much the official riding jacket for Isle of Mann races back then, and was made famous by Steve McQueen preferring the jacket at off-road races he participated.
The company was founded in Longton, Staffordshire in 1924. The company is now Italian-owned and based in Mogliano, Veneto. Yes, the Belstaff jackets are well-made and tons of celebrities have been spotted wearing them both on and off-set.
Some of them are used as product placements. The problem is that they are expensive as a shady high dollar whore that steal your wallet while you are in bathroom.
I spotted this Iron-man 2 Belstaff jacket. I have no idea if this particular model was used in the movie or not. I have seen the movie, just don't remember... This is simply a great example of bad taste. And its price is bit shy of 2000 US bu
cks!! Yes, it is more expensive than another bad taste yet, actual leather Iron man 2 riding suit. The charcoal color version is better looking and you don't look like a total douche bag, but still....I always liked their riding jackets likes of Mojave wax cotton riding jacket, but if they keep making those idiotic stuff with ridiculous price tag, I might have to avoid it. I suspect that they are trying to be like Gucci, Chanel or any other brands that I don't care for. I want Belstaff to remain functionality-focused outfit company...
I want to pay for the quality not for the name, images and status of owning it. What? Harley Davidson?
