Belstaff is a British outerwear label founded in 1924 in Stoke-on-Trent, known for waxed-cotton motorcycle jackets such as the Trialmaster and Roadmaster, plus leather biker jackets, knitwear and boots. British sportswear brand Castore acquired 100% of Belstaff from INEOS on a debt-free, cash-free basis in August 2025, with INEOS taking a stake in Castore; CEO Kerry Byrne exited soon after. The brand marked its centenary in 2024 and released a "Gangs of London" capsule for Spring/Summer 2025, pairing motorsport heritage with contemporary tailoring.

Does Belstaff run big or small?
Belstaff runs small. Most people are happier taking one size up from their usual, especially in waxed and leather jackets or if you plan to layer knitwear underneath. Belstaff is widely described as cutting slim on an Italian/European block, so the labelled size tends to feel a size smaller than equivalent US or high-street pieces, with waxed jackets loosening only slightly with wear.
