The Trialmaster is one of my favourite designs of all time, a timeless classic that looks as good on a motorcycle as it does on a catwalk! The Trialmaster was first introduced in the 1950s, and quickly became the staple jacket for the explosion in popularity of motorcycling in postwar Britain. Worn on the backs of everyone from Che Guevara to the 59 Club, the Trailmaster was the jacket of choice for a generation of bikers! Belstaff have always been a brand keen to work with racing teams, and the much coveted red and green Trialmasters were produced in the later 1960s - 70s for racing teams in very limited quantities.
Condition
This is in amazing shape. The lining is absolutely perfect. The original lightning zipper works like a charm, belt is present and correct etc. There is a period modification with a drawstring through the hem, I think this actually makes it better! There is absolutely no damage I can see, and seems to have a good coat of wax. Really hard to improve upon.
