Besltaff is best known for the traditional waxed cotton look that it began cultivating nearly a century ago. And of course in more recent years the brand has updated its heritage moto collection with modern armor, as well as modern details, like redundant waterproof membranes fitted underneath the jackets’ waxed cotton shells, as well as added layers of material at key abrasion zones.
And if you like that playbook, you’ll love the Besltaff Crosby, available now in both black and forest green.
The Crosby is not as long as the traditional Trialmaster, and its half-belt design is easier to wear. But it’s still a little longer than the short-cut staples like the Brooklands and Ariel, and it makes a great option for fall riding.
The Crosby comes with a CE “A” abrasion certificate, making it most at home bopping around town or exploring country roads.
The armor is easily removable for “off the bike” use. And thoughtful touches like a stepped zipper, rubberized lower buttons that won’t scratch your tank, and corduroy trim at the cuffs and collar all ensure you won’t want to take this jacket off.
Fit is true to size.
Features:
- Waxed 6oz cotton
- Seam-sealed Miporex waterproof membrane
- Removable D3O armor on shoulders and elbows
- Pocket for optional back protector (sold separately)
- Cotton check lining
- Metal ventilating grommets under arms
- Adjustable neck strap
- Corduroy lining on the inside of collar and cuffs
