Belstaff CLOTHINGS

With a legacy dating back to 1924, it is unsurprising that British label Belstaff has become irrevocably tied to pristine leather craftsmanship and hard-wearing wardrobe staples. As pioneers of matte, rain-repellant waxed leather jackets, the label revolutionized both the functional and aesthetic properties of the motorcycle jacket, and the resulting associations to biker culture’s rebellious spirit continues to characterize all facets of the brand’s design approach.Expanding upon the label’s rich motor heritage, current creative director, Delphine Ninous, lends a modern and elevated feel to the brand’s ready-to-wear and outerwear lines. Promoting the idea that personal style is the product of necessity rather than contrivance, the label’s devotion to pristine construction instills a no-nonsense attitude that complements the rustic finishes and preemptive distressing that instills a rough-edged charm. Earthy colorways carefully sustain an air of sobriety, while tactical accoutrements reflect the practicality that has been at the crux of the label’s immovable menswear presence.
