Goose’s jacket is identical to the other MFP jackets, with the exception of padding stitched into the shoulders and elbows. It’s a black classic motorcycle jacket (known in Australia as a “Brando” style jacket). The jackets have a v-shaped (possibly slightly scalloped) seam across the rear shoulders, adjustment tabs at the bottom sides, no snaps on the collar, no epaulets, no belt, and only one pocket is seen on their right-hand side. The shoulders have shoulder caps added.Contrary to rumor, MadMaxCostumes.com maintains that Goose had the only real leather MFP jacket in the film, most likely because Goose was a motorcycle-riding character and it benefited the safety of the stuntman & Steve Bisley himself. It should be evident that Goose’s uniform is leather after a close inspection and comparison of the texture of the jackets in the film (and the cracks on Max’s vinyl uniform).For more info, go to Special Topics: JacketsSearch eBay Australia for Brando style jacketsSearch eBay for Abbyshot
Trousers
Black leather trousers, cut in a general “jeans” pattern. No above-the-knee seams. It’s not clear how many pockets are on the trousers, if any, but it’s likely they are like the other MFP trousers: with only a bound pocket on the right hip.Search eBay for leather trousers
Boots
Goose wears 2nd-generation Alpinestar Hi-Point boots (but they have a couple of unusual features). For more info, go to Special Topics: Boots
Shirt
Light-blue Bonds ”raglan-cut” cotton T-shirts, which are still popular in Australia today, although the light-blue color appears to have been discontinued sometime in the 1990s. Bond’s name for the light-blue color was ice blue. Raglan-cut cotton T-shirts in solid colors are extremely rare otherwise.Search eBay for Bonds t-shirts
Helmet
Silver open-face helmet with snap-on flip-up clear face shield visor and black snap-on mouth guard. Probably a Bell Star helmet. The mouth guards are no longer manufactured. When they were, it seems they were sold and branded by different companies, such as Tony D. – Full House, Malcolm Smith, and Pacifico. Replica face guards are occasionally available.You can still find new plain open-face helmets in silver. But a vintage helmet will probably be smaller and will accommodate the face guard better. Bell now has a vintage line of helmets. Vintage Buco helmets still appear to be available on eBay.A Goose replica helmet was once available at http://www.whouse.jp/goose_html/goose_helmet.html. It looked nice, but it was not 100% accurate.
Forearm Guards
Goose also wears forearm guards, which were originally 1970s Jofa Motocross shin guards. The knee segments were removed, and then the remaining shin segments were painted black. The removed knee segments are likely the same as the ones seen on Goose’s knees in the film. The shin guards were also available from Jofama, Jofa’s leather clothing division (see below). Goose wears a black fabric kidney belt.
Goose’s badge number is “MFP 2241.” He wears a crosshairs pin on his left shoulder.See also MFP Badge
Handcuffs
The MFP’s handcuffs have 3 links in their chain, as opposed to 2. They could just be cheap toy novelty handcuffs. Handcuffs appear to be worn looped around the belt, instead of worn in a case.
Baton/Nightstick
The MFP carry black wooden nightsticks. Nightsticks can be seen hanging from the adjustment tabs on the jackets.
