Q&A Americas Trialmaster/Fieldmaster Jacket

[Fidei Defensor]

Simple Question: Do All US purchasers of the Trialmaster and Fieldmaster versions of the Grenadier get the Belstaff jacket (I believe a coupon to select color and size)? Or just the early reservation holders?
Or does no one get a Jacket????

The jacket is still listed as a feature on the US configurator. How it gets delivered isn't as clear.

It shows up on the pre-order so I believe its real. Follow-on question, to where does one wear a Belstaff Jacket (in Florida or Texas)? Owners club meetings maybe? Don't get me wrong, really cool piece of gear, but I'll be well outside of my comfort zone wearing one - I think.

If you use your Grenadier properly, adn head for the wilds of Colorado, Wyoming, etc., you will have plenty of opportunities to wear the jacket.........

I ordered a trialmaster and mine is being delivered after the 12th June.

I'm usually in flooded rice fields... but do hope to get the rig to Colorado/Utah. I could have certainly used it earlier this year - tried to backroad it in my Rover from Glenwood Springs to Albuquerque on Jan 3 during the blizzard. McClure pass was closed but the gate was open so as we do I went for it. Pass betw Silverton and Durango was closed (and probably a good thing the gate was closed). Tried every ranch road possible to avoid going as far west as Cortez - lots of dead ends and an arrival in Abq around 2am. Ultimately there was no way of avoiding Cortez. You have some rough country up there.

my experience with a Belstaff waxwd cotton jacket back in the day was that they were comfortable between 28 and 38.5°F, assuming the sun was not out (remember it was a British design and sun is notr really an issue there) Heaven help you in Florida....
