Has anybody bought a Belstaff Roadmaster Jacket or any other Belstaff Jacket recently?

I am considering buying one but wondering if the quality is as good as it used to be.

Belstaff are not great, they are not made the same as the old ones (and they weren't fantastic either)

Go try some out and check out the quality, don't buy mail order as I think you may find it a waste of time.

Thanks jamesfuller. I was going to buy online tbh as it is on sale.

I like the look of the jackets but don't want to spend £400+ on something that will not last.

I've got a 2 year old jacket and I've worn it a fair bit, and its barely worn in, I've taken the shoulder and elbow armour out though as [coughs] I don't ride a motorbike. Not sure about the more recent lightweight version though.

Perhaps look at some of the alternatives - that all seem to be better made ....

When I looked at them decided they were overpriced for the quality. Fit was odd but still like the styl. Barbour equivalents better made and cheaper.

There was a Belstaff outlet at Biscester.
