The Real McCoys

[Qinhan]

I've noticed quite a few Rakuten stores seem to have posted notices that they will be closed for a few days around New Years which is an important time for families to get together in Japan.  This is probably why 2nd have taken so long to get back to you.  I'd shoot them an email just to be sure but would expect to hear from them in the next couple of days.

Be sure to post some pics when your CPO comes in!

they are superb.  they only had large in stock and i'm glad i took it.  they're a good fit and will shrink down 5%.

a little long in the leg again they will shrink but i'm just rolling them up over air max one for gym runs.

really lush cotton; heavyweight exterior; soft downy interior.

nice details are the cotton pocket lining.  its heavy duty - think m-65 pocket liner - and holds keys; phone and change ably.

i'm 5' 9" and approximately 75kg.

Can you post measurements post soak that would be very helpful? Thanks.

still pre-wash will keep you posted.

just got the denim western shirt via rakuten tonight.  its also boss and the 16 is a good fit pre-soak with slightly too long sleeves but nothing inappropriate for raw denim despite the fitted cut.  looking forward to the next phase of play.

in more disappointing news my ware house flannel shirt came up much smaller than billed on rakuten.  still the wife is happy at her unexpected windfall

My CPO is still in customs and has been since the 6th! Hope it's no too much longer!

i'd be really interested to hear how it fits i had to size up from 38 to 40 in the buzz rickson

[Jord666]

No probs ill get some fit pics up with measurements upon arrival! Status is "Awaiting Customs Charging" at the moment, they sure know how to take they're time

interesting, the German customs needed 22 hours and 6 DIN A4 pages to clear my cap…

Has anyone bought/tried on one of these RM storm rider jackets?  I'd be really curious to hear your impressions and thoughts.
