A bomber jacket that carries the spirit of the skies

The Redskins GUN PALOMA PAF NAVY is not just a leather jacket—it’s a tribute to the precision and elegance of the Patrouille de France, the French Air and Space Force’s aerobatic display team. Crafted from supple sheep leather, this bomber jacket blends military heritage with contemporary style, offering a slim fit that flatters the silhouette while keeping the classic bomber silhouette intact. The deep navy hue, a nod to aviation uniforms, is paired with signature details like ribbed cuffs, a round collar, and a full-length metal zip for a polished yet rugged look.

Designed for those who appreciate detail

Every element of this jacket tells a story. The right chest features a slanted zip pocket, while the left sleeve boasts a flap pocket for a touch of asymmetry. The ribbed waistband and cuffs ensure a snug fit, while zips at the sleeve ends add a modern twist. Inside, a printed lining with a pilot motif and perforated lining nods to its aviation roots, while practical interior pockets keep essentials secure. The removable Patrouille de France patch on the right sleeve lets you wear the emblem with pride—or remove it for a subtler look.

With its lightweight yet durable sheep leather, the GUN PALOMA PAF NAVY is versatile enough for year-round wear. The slim cut makes it ideal for layering over knitwear in cooler months or pairing with a simple tee for a casual-chic look in spring and autumn.

How should I care for the sheep leather to maintain its appearance?

To preserve the leather, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and apply a leather conditioner specifically designed for delicate leathers like sheep. Store it in a breathable garment bag when not in use.

Is the jacket suitable for layering in colder weather?

The slim fit and lightweight sheep leather make it ideal for layering over thin jumpers or shirts. However, it is not heavily insulated, so additional layers may be needed in very cold conditions.

The emblem pays homage to the French aerobatic demonstration team, the Patrouille de France. It is a nod to the aviation-inspired heritage of bomber jackets, adding a distinctive, collectable detail to the design.

Are the zips on the sleeves functional or purely decorative?

The zips at the cuffs are functional, allowing you to adjust the fit around the wrists for a more tailored look or to accommodate layers underneath.

How does the slim fit differ from a regular fit?
