Rewaxing yr jacket



I know this video made the rounds pretty heavily a few months ago, but it came out in late April just as I was putting my Roadmaster away for the season. Well needless to say, the weather lately has meant pulling it back out to help me brave the sub-50 degree days we've been having. As such, the daily wear has gotten me thinking about maybe taking a night to rewax it. While the video is pure Barbour, I'm sure the same process applies to my cooler, awesomer, more badass Belstaff. How much more badass? From Mr. Porter:

Legend has it that Steve McQueen once passed up on spending the night with his girlfriend Ali MacGraw to stay at home and wax his Belstaff jacket

An update on how it goes to follow.
