There's no time wasted embarking on your alpine adventure. The frosty gondola doors open, beginning their morning rounds as you arrive. High upon the panoramic ridge, you plot your course, traversing and descending your way back towards the base, back towards the roaring fire that awaits in the lodge. There too, awaits your Bridger.
Full grain lambskin leather meets warm down feathers in one eye-catching jacket defined by unparalleled comfort and style. Face the elements in our black leather bubble jacket. A classic choice for the rugged gentleman who values timeless style. On any mountain in any range, the Bridger is built to keep you feeling as good as it looks from first tracks to apres. High-end without being flashy, the ruggedness of this leather down jacket includes details like an interior left-side chest pocket and antique brass finishing on the zipper front closure and zippered hand pockets.
The black leather puffer that pairs as easily with a suit as with denim. The most versatile color in the Bridger lineup. Goes with everything, hides everything, and develops a more subtle patina than the brown variants over years of wear. Throw it on over a tee for a weekend on the mountain or over a button-down for a Friday night in the city. It handles both without trying.
1 oz weight lambskin in a deep, classic black. Lambskin moves with you, creases where it should, and develops a subtle patina over years of wear.
Real down fill that keeps you warm without bulk. Wears comfortably in sub-zero temps with a base layer underneath.
The contrast of antique brass against black leather is the Bridger Black's signature visual detail. Hardware ages without becoming plastic-bright.
Discreet toggles at the hem let you cinch the waist for a sharper profile or loosen it for layering. No visible drawstrings.
Easy-clean polyester slides cleanly over a flannel or sweater and holds up to repeated wear.
Left-side interior chest pocket for a wallet, phone, or passport. Sits flat against the body.

Black lambskin develops a subtle, even patina over years of wear rather than the visible color shifts you see on brown leather. With proper conditioning the black holds its depth indefinitely.
Lambskin is naturally water-resistant but not waterproof. Handles snow flurries and a light rain. In sustained rain, the leather absorbs water and the down loses loft. Wipe dry promptly.
Yes. Hang the jacket and gently pat each panel by hand to redistribute the fill. If sections feel flat after long storage, hang in a steamy bathroom for ten minutes and pat again.
A one year warranty covers stitching, hardware, and structural defects. Normal patina and wear marks are part of how the product is meant to age and are not defects.

Shopping online, as most of us do nowadays, you’ll want to know your measurements to help ensure a great fit. The sketch below shows where to take measurements to compare to clothing you already own. Keep in mind, however, those measurements will only be helpful if taken correctly. Tip: don’t let the measuring tape hang loose when you’re measuring, but avoid pulling the tape excessively tight. Here’s how to get accurate measurements:
Length: Measure from the bottom of the collar to the waist seam.
Shoulders: Measure between the top of the sleeve seams.
Chest: Measure the entire circumference of your chest. Begin with one end of the measuring tape 1 inch below the armhole at the fullest part of your chest. Then, keeping the tape level, wrap it around (under your armpits, around your shoulder blades, and back to the front) to get the measurement.
Sleeve: Accurately measuring sleeve length is tough to do yourself, so ask someone to help with this. Beginning with one end of the tape at the top of your arm, then down to your wrist. This entire length is your arm-length measurement.
Do the same rules apply to how a jacket should fit as to other jackets or outerwear? Not necessarily. Read on for details.
Leather will stretch over time, so you never want to start with a leather jacket that is too big. But that doesn’t mean you want a jacket that’s too small! It’s also essential to allow room for layers under your leather jacket. Here are a few specific tips for finding a leather jacket that fits just right:
Chest: Leather jackets ought to fit more snugly through the chest than a regular overcoat, but consider the types of layers you may want to wear underneath. If you live in a warm climate and will be layering over light clothing such as a dress shirt or t-shirt, we recommend adding 2-3 inches to your measured chest size. If you live in a colder climate and layering over heavier clothing such as sweaters, we recommend adding 3-4 inches to your chest size. If you land between sizes, we recommend sizing up to the next size available. Tip: you should be able to comfortably zip or button your leather jacket all the way up, even if you plan to wear it open.
Shoulders: Suit coat rules do not apply to leather jackets, so it's okay if the shoulder comes down your arm a few inches. However, even though the leather will give over time if the shoulder seam is higher than your shoulder, the jacket is too small.
Waist: The bottom of your leather jacket should not reach below the bottom of your belt/top of your thigh. This is likely shorter than other overcoats you've owned, but a leather jacket that hangs well below the belt is too big unless you're wearing a long leather trench coat.
Sleeve Length: The proper sleeve length on a leather jacket is consistent with pretty much any jacket: sleeves should end at your wrist.
