Belstaff Jacket Patch Placement

[Knysna]

I received my jacket yesterday with the limited edition patch. I wanted to start a chat about the consensus of placement of the patch on the jacket.

Mines on right shoulder. Belstaff badge on left shoulder. As an old Boy Scout I sewed it on myself!

I wish I knew someone, lol.

I was thinking left shoulder also.

As an old boyscout I hope you re-waterproofed your stitching or you’ll end up with a soggy shoulder.

No, I didn’t. But then it never rains in England!

That's why I haven't attached mine yet, I did wonder if Gorilla glue was a better option, after all it did stick my Ineos badge back onto the bonnet.

I’m actually starting to think below the Belstaff logo looks good. Here is mine taped on.

Long shot, but is anyone interested in selling your Beltane jacket/patch? Size XL

Jacket, yes - patch no. But until it arrives I'm not certain.

Sorry, no as I will probably be buried in it! Too small too. Hope you find one. The most expensive jacket I have ever bought, but I did get a free car with it so good value really.

Great minds think alike, so they say...mine is stitched on is as crooked as yours only taped

on...the old girl's eyes aren't what they use to be but I'm happy

• It showed! The size 54 turned out a tad snug in the chest but gravity is doing it's job on me, and in 10years when it's age appropriate it'll be great. Plus your order one size if wearing more than a t-shirt.
• I'm surprised, I don't look as retarded as I thought I'd look. I may wear this thing in place of my Aether once in awhile.
• Anyone parting with a '72 Green Norton???
• I'm not sure I want to stitch that patch onto the jacket. I'll ask my tailor what he thinks.
• The packing slip has this at 165GBP and the US retail is about 600usd? Nice markup.
• Mine has a production date of Nov 2023, it appears. I wonder what took so long.

What "American" size do you usually wear (to compare with the EU 54)?

Body shape is 6'4", 205, 34 waist 44 chest. waist fits good. I'm not sure how much room there is for chub. I should be a 32 but "functioning alcoholic" ='s french fries and open faced meatloaf sandwiches at 10pm on a friday at the pub. I just had my annual yesterday, and the email from dr. mike this morning was "cholesterol has an upward trend, cut it the f**k out".

I dont think I could ride a bike in this, it's a little tight for reaching out. Ape hangers are a definite no go.

It fits like a fashionable suit jacket. Just a little more in the upper chest and it'd be like a custom cut for me. Overall I'm shockingly pleased.

Nobody's going above the chest pocket with the patch, like you would with a set of jump wings, etc?

 

[Manzino]

Got mine today. Perfect fit.
Will take it to a tailor and have the patch put on the right sleeve.
