Waxed Nostalgia

This somewhat wet morning i'd like to pay my respect to Belstaff clothing. They started out in England in 1924 making waterproof jackets. Their waxed cotton jackets were used by couriers and motorcyclist early on to stay dry and they eventually became an icon being featured in classic 50's and 60's motorcycle movies. From Che Guevara wearing one during his motorcycle adventures in South America to Ewan McGregor sporting a custom Belstaff in Long way down they have never gone out of style. The down side is expect to pay about $400 for an original and more than double that for a new one. Then again how many jackets have remained functional and stylish for almost a Century?
