The Real McCoys

@Lennart:
On Tuesday night the 14th of January around 3 to 5 AM, DC4 has been robbed. Most of the items in our store at the Torstrasse have been taken. The police are currently investigating the case.
Important: DC4 stamp All the jeans from our store have been stamped 'DC4 Berlin' on one of the inner pockets. If you come across a brand new pair of jeans with this stamp, get in contact with us as soon as possible! Please keep an eye out for any of the goods that might come from our store. Many brands are hardly available outside of Japan, like Toys McCoy and Samurai Jeans.
Help us find stolen items and get a reward! Do you spot a stolen product on websites like eBay or on a forum? Send the link to contact[at]dc4.de and you'll receive a FREE pair of jeans, and a discount on your next 3 orders.
Don't place online orders until further notice Naturally, this means that orders placed online cannot be processed right now, we hope for your understanding. The shop will be closed until further notice. We're shocked and outraged about the whole event and can't wait for the criminals to be put to justice.
Please share guys! You can address me with any info, also DC4 contact or direct with Daniel. Thanks!
DC4 team.

I have a pea coat landing from Japan at my office today. I'll have to wait until the 10th to get my mitts on it though.

Hi guys - I haven't seen this mentioned here, but has anyone tried on the antifreeze jacket and can comment on sizing? The measurements on the McCoys website seem strange - the shoulder measurements seem very narrow with regard to the chest measurements.
Any more detailed information on sizing (width of arms etc) would be much appreciated!

Holy cow that seems steep for a nylon windbreaker.

I'm a 38 in most RMC stuff but was a 40 in the anti-freeze when I tried it on. They run small.

Yeah… I haven't quite worked out why it's so high, either!

Got a pea coat. This thing is terrific. Extremely soft and dense double Melton wool. It's very warm and wind resistant and is handling -20 degrees Fahrenheit wind chill on -10 air temperature very well with a wool commando sweater and tee underneath.
Stenciled as a coat for the WW1 era coal ship Cyclops which was lost at sea I think in the Bermuda Triangle.
All pockets are lined with a really soft and luxurious corduroy. This one is the 1913 model, so it has two flap pockets below the standard vertical handwarmer slats in addition to this inside chest pocket:
Finally, this features ebonite 13 star buttons. This is an old, obsolete, period correct hardened rubber.

get the iron heart one Rafa, unless you're into historical, rest assured IHW05 will make you

This is from Real Deal in Japan. I'm not sure that it's that much warmer than IH, the length and flap pockets were what I liked. It doesn't have storm cuffs as the IH one does so the arms are probably not as warm.

Thanks gents. I am a huge fan of the extra flap pockets. It is so handy to have extra safely usable exterior pockets on a pea coat, especially given how they are kind of a hassle to take on and off / open and close. Perfect for car keys and gloves or even as secondary handwarmers.
The flap pockets and resulting length are what steered me to this model and it's worked out well. The details just keep revealing themselves as premium Japanese brands tend to do. I'm smitten.
