Original Goose Country Tri-Color V-Bomber
Men’s Black Lambskin Puffer with Forest-Green Crimson Chevron Panels
Built to command attention in cold weather, this men’s Original Goose Country V-Bomber combines a black leather foundation with saturated crimson-red and forest-green panels. The contrasting sections form a broad double-chevron across the chest and back, giving the jacket a graphic identity that remains recognizable from every angle.
Beneath that statement colorwork is a substantial winter construction: full-grain lambskin, goose-down insulation, a plush removable black fur collar and rib-knit edges that draw the padded body inward at the waist.

Colorblocking with Immediate Contrast
The dominant black shell covers the sleeves, lower torso and upper-back yoke. A vivid red leather band begins at the shoulders, crosses the upper chest and meets beside the center zipper. Directly below it, a deep forest-green chevron creates a second, wider V before the design transitions into the black lower body.
The back repeats the palette in reverse visual order: black yoke, red upper V, forest-green lower V and black leather beneath. Red rib-knit cuffs and a matching waistband connect the hem treatment to the shoulder panels, while the black collar keeps the overall color balance grounded.
The photographs do not show a separate raised cord or external piping. Instead, definition comes from the edges of the joined leather sections, clean topstitching and the natural loft created by the insulated construction. Colors may shift slightly under daylight, warm indoor lighting and different display settings.

Specifications above apply to this individual product. They should not be transferred automatically to the angular leather down jackets available elsewhere on Dark Raven Hide, because hide type, fill ratio and collar construction can differ between models.
Forward Design Details
- Double-chevron chest: Red and green panels converge toward the front zipper, creating the signature V-Bomber profile.
- Black leather foundation: The sleeves and lower front keep the bright color blocking visually controlled.
- Detachable statement collar: The full black fur trim creates volume around the neck and can be removed for a cleaner leather-collar appearance.
- Vertical antique-brass closure: The warm metal finish provides a subtle contrast against the black, red and green shell.
- Diagonal hand pockets: Two slanted lower pockets follow the upward panel lines and close with antique-brass snaps.
- Visible brand identifiers: Red Goose Country labels appear below the neckline and beside the right-hand pocket.
- Secure knitted edges: Red rib-knit cuffs and waistband help hold the bomber shape while reducing open gaps around the wrists and waist.
Reverse Panel Architecture
A large black leather yoke sits beneath the collar and descends to a centered point between the shoulder blades. The red leather band follows this point in a broad V, while the forest-green section repeats the same geometry directly below it.
Both colored bands meet along a clean center-back seam, creating a symmetrical rear view. The green chevron reaches farther down the back than the red section, increasing the layered effect without adding an unrelated decorative patch. Black leather continues from the lowest V to the red ribbed waistband.
Padded black sleeves retain a softly rounded shape and join the body through structured shoulder seams. Tonal topstitching reinforces the joined panels while allowing the three leather colors to remain the principal visual feature.
Seasonal Warmth Guidance
The leather exterior serves as the first barrier against cool wind, while the down-filled body and sleeves retain loft around the wearer. The ribbed wrist and waist finishes help reduce drafts, and the removable collar changes the level of coverage around the neck.
- Collar attached: Approximately 18°F to 46°F (-8°C to 8°C), depending on wind, activity, layering and individual cold tolerance.
- Collar removed: Approximately 41°F to 64°F (5°C to 18°C) for cool transitional conditions.
These ranges are practical styling guidance rather than laboratory-tested temperature ratings. The jacket is fashion-led winter outerwear and should not be treated as certified expedition equipment.
Proportion Before Purchase
This is a padded V-Bomber rather than a close-cut leather fashion jacket. Expect visible fullness across the torso, shoulders and sleeves. The waistband should gather the lower body without forcing the insulation flat, and the zipper should close smoothly without pulling across the colored panels.
Measure your chest, natural waist, shoulders and sleeve length while wearing the kind of base layer you expect to use with the jacket. Compare those measurements with the product-specific size chart. Do not choose solely from the size printed inside another slim leather jacket.
Customers wanting a cleaner profile with less geometric paneling can compare the men’s zip-front bomber collection.
Streetwear Coordination
Let the red and forest-green leather carry the outfit. Black denim, charcoal cargos, plain knitwear and minimally branded boots or sneakers create a controlled base. An off-white sweater can lighten the palette, while a black roll-neck produces a sharper winter combination.
Although this design is a contemporary fashion V-Bomber rather than military-issued clothing, its short leather body, center zipper and knitted edges reflect the broader flight-jacket lineage documented in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s A-2 jacket record. Dark Raven Hide customers interested in more traditional interpretations can also view pilot-influenced leather outerwear.
Component Care Routine
- Black lambskin: Remove dry surface dust with a soft cloth. Test any specialist leather conditioner on a hidden area first.
- Red and green sections: Avoid household cleaners, alcohol wipes and aggressive rubbing that could alter the colors unevenly.
- Down insulation: Do not machine wash or leave heavily compressed. Shake the jacket gently after storage to redistribute loft.
- Black fur collar: Detach only through its intended fastening system. Keep perfume, oils, conditioner and prolonged moisture away from the fur.
- Satin lining: Air after wear and blot small marks without soaking the filling beneath it.
- Red rib knit: Use a soft lint brush and avoid pulling the cuffs or waistband while removing the jacket.
- Zipper and snaps: Operate without force and keep leather treatments away from the metal.
- Storage: Use a broad padded hanger and breathable cover in a cool, ventilated location. Choose a specialist experienced with leather, down and fur for deep cleaning.
Buyer Questions Answered
Is this jacket black or multicolored?
It is a three-color design. Black covers most of the shell, while crimson-red and forest-green leather form the contrasting chevrons across the front and back.
What style would U.S. shoppers call it?
The most accurate retail terms are men’s leather V-Bomber, color-block leather puffer bomber, chevron leather bomber and fur-collar leather winter jacket.
Does the collar come off completely?
Yes. The supplied specification identifies the black fur collar as detachable, allowing the leather neckline to be worn without the additional volume.
Will the down filling make the fit bulky?
The jacket is intentionally fuller than an unpadded leather bomber. Its insulation creates a rounded winter profile, while the ribbed waistband keeps the silhouette defined.
Are the colors identical on the back?
The same black, red and forest-green palette continues across the rear, but the panels form broader stacked chevrons around a centered back seam.
Can this leather jacket be worn in rain?
It is not described as waterproof. If exposed to light moisture, blot the surface and let it air-dry naturally away from radiators, hairdryers and direct sunlight.
Is it protective motorcycle equipment?
No protective certification or impact armor has been supplied. It should be treated as fashion and cold-weather outerwear rather than certified riding gear.
