The Real McCoys

[Max Power]

Just got this JoeMcCoy Hoodie. I feel it is a tad too big for me, especially the long arms (normally my crucial point, as they are too short). Opinions?

[Seul]

Just cuff the sleeves if they're too long. I do it all the time.

[ChuckDenim]

Looks too big overall.

hmmm, the pics are pretty dark to really see what´s going on! don´t you think a wash could kill your concernes, no?!

[babyknight]

honestly i think the fit is perfect MP

[hajduk]

Max, hoodie has been washed?
mine shrinks a bunch after a washing machine.

[Max Power]

I think one size down would be too small or uncomfortable. And it hasn't been washed yet. But I must say I love it more and more…

[hajduk]

do not size down Max.

[Max Power]

I'll do a hot soak now Thanks

[Max Power]

I got little to almost none shrinkage out of the fabric. But I did some "real" pictures and they make me think that I sized right.

[hajduk]

u sized right Max of course :))
that´s strange at u got none shrinkage…
i have 2 of these. the Balls Park line.
got some serious shrinking. arms...length...chest...

If you want shrinkage, forget the hot soak. Hot wash (60C) and tumble dry should do the trick.

Yeah max power great pick up and looks good. I wear mine almost everyday. For shrinkage I'd go with maynard's advice but be careful with tumble drying on a full run.

Here is my beloved heather grey hoodie in my usual small on a very grey Sunday. It has not touched water so far

[Finn666]

great fits you two!

[Max Power]

Fantastic fit David and thanks for the hint!

[Qinhan]

Just a couple of quick photos of my latest acquisition.  A big thank you to Babyknight who was super helpful with sizing advice.

[davito]

don't size down big man they shrink a lot in the wash.

i'm finding the summer sweats in large tight round the midriff compared to the winter weights and that's pre wash.

i've had a of mccoy delivered in the past few weeks will post later today.

More pics, Quality isn't too hot (taken on an iPhone)

Over all I couldn't be more pleased with this amazing shirt! In my opinion the cut and shape of the shirt is fantastic, pretty short in the body Which I like and the size is spot on for layering which is the whole reason I bought it,
The wool is so thick and warm, I had a bout 2 miles to walk this morning to work and it's down to -2 here, I had a t-shirt, Cabourn Roll neck and this on top and was as warm as toast walking in!

i got this bad boy in red.  its lush; heavy wool that is thicker than a filson jacket so expecting it to be very warm in the winter.

my only gripe is that the buttons seem a little small given the sheer thickness of the wool.

perhaps things will loosen up over time but they are a little fiddly to button up.
