The Real McCoys

I probably envy Davito's boots and jackets more than anyone's else on here, great jacket David.

I have a RMC Japan horse-hide A-2 on order.  Won a RMC Japan horse-hide A-2 on eBay.  This is my grail jacket.  Indiana Jones's fedora and "A-2" were the first clothing items aside from cowboy clothes that I ever took notice of back when I was a little boy.  I've always had some form of A-2, but this one is a cut above any that I've had before.

I hope it looks as good in person and fits as well as the measurements would indicate.

Tell me about it, McClain. Congrats on the grail. Great purchase.

Davito, that jacket fits you so perfectly. 100%

Finn, was that really you or one of the Chippendales?

[mclaincausey]

Thanks Sean, I responded to your PM questions.  I will be posting some pictures and comments soon and will compare the quality to Lost Worlds.

ok here ya go guys:

first i gave them a cold soak before putting them into the washer (helps to prevent any kinda damage during wash!)

here the post soak/wash info:

and some fitpics (thinking about hotsoaking from knee down, to get a bit more shrinkage in length etc.!?)

wearing them for the first time today and i'm already in love with this cut and the denim o/course!
whoever thinks about getting these…don't hesitate and grab'em while they're hot!

I think that's the best lookin jean ive seen for you IMHO

[superfuzz]

That is a great fit. Once the stretch a little in the top block they'll be perfect!

feeling comfortable as f... and i'm sure these are going to be my favourite pair pretty soon
perfect weight and perfect in all the other dimensions imo!

@tatmantall:

thanks mate… and tbh. i already thought about getting a back up pair!

[TresUnCool]

I actually don't like the fit. Sorry, Rafa; no intention to offend.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

what's there not to like?
No seriously, they look really gerat Rafa!

[TresUnCool]

It's a personal preference thing, I guess. The transition from the hip down in terms of fit would bother me. (Probably why I dislike the Weird Guy fit from Naked and Famous.) It could also be because they're raw, but I've always been an advocate for more masculine cuts through the hips and thighs.

[tatmantall]

Seriously, I guess we will havevto agree to disagree TresUnCool  Those look fantastic

[tatmantall]

Maybe we define "masculine" differently but I definetly would not consider the weird guy cut a "more masculine" cut than that… Anyway, different strokes for different folks, variety is the spice of life!

Great fit Rafa, glad you r happy thats all what counts. i enjoy my 991xh almost everyday.
