Hello,
Any label inside somewhere? Could be a Panther jacket, not sure yet...

No the only label is what's in the picture

Ok, I am going with a desktop eval here, usually Belstaff jackets have a plaid liner and somewhat of a different Lebel. But since the company is under new Italian management, many new models were produced.
Look for Panther and try to matched your jacket.
It looks like it could be a Chinese knock off, I am not sure from the images. Its just my impression of the overall details.

I did find 1 online with the same style label but it had different pockets and it had a belt but mine doesn't look like a belt is meant to be with it but thank you for looking into it for me

Dean I am not 100% sure of my eval but you are right, trialmaster style = a belt, and I too is put off by the lack of loops...
I am more into the pre-Italian takeover in oilskin.

Forgot to ask, can you post an image of the zipper? A zip tells a lot!

Yeah that doesn't look like what is expected on a Panther jacket, the puller should be bigger...
And the snaps usually have a Belstaff engraved somewhere...
I am not sure man, sorry.

I think it could be a legit jacket from the period just before Belstaff was bought out and production moved to Italy.
Ok thank you do u know how much it could be worth on today's market by anychance
Dany that's a Aero zipper i believe
I ain't looking at selling it I just wanna know so if it's not worth much I would wear it for my bikes if it is then I will put it away for safe keeping
Along with gold top stuff eh Steve, we had a goldtop tannery in Hull, symbol was a gold spinning top, I had a pair of goldtop motorcycle boots as a teen

Well you guys have me thinking...
New to me that Belstaff did a leather kit before being sold. Always saw oilskin before the takeover.
That Aero zip is really puzzling to say the least....

I think another option would be to contact Belstaff and send them photos of the jacket - perhaps they have an archivist that can assist. I know that Schott sews tags into the pockets of their jackets that give the style and lot numbers, which would be a good place to start. Maybe Belstaff did the same and someone at the manufacturer's atelier will be able to help. It's a great looking jacket, hope you enjoy it.
Seems like that's what your more interested in, us giving you a valuation
