      Thanks Zatemn. Most of the sizing information was from a combination of guys here and measurements off superdenim, blue and green soho and raakuten (vintage paradise).

      On a side note the sleeves are breaking in really quickly on my j100, just waiting for the body to catchup for a better fit.

        Cheers futura, I'll definitely look up the websites you mentioned.
        How do the shoulders fit if I may ask? I tend to find with japanese cuts that if you want the shoulders to fit just right, sleeve length becomes visibiliy short and yours look spot on (but I do have narrow shoulders so might be just me).
        Lastly, would you expect Shinki to stretch, if needed, like steerhide?

          The shoulders like the sleeves I would say are just a tad tight but I think with a bit of wear should become a bit more supple and mould a bit more to my body shape. I thought about having the jacket as a layering piece allowing for a ballpark sweat or tshirt underneath but its probably a bit too tight zipped with a sweat.

          I'm Chinese and suffer from a similar problem with European brands where if i want a good shoulder fit, I end up having sleeves that are too long.

            Thanks buddy.. Really appreciate all the insight. If it helps, I think the J-100 is designed to be tight fitting and look better than a layering piece .. I'd go for the exact fit you described

                Anyone who can advice on the denim jackets from rmc?
                Having trouble finding one which fits relatively slim over the body, whilst still long enough over arms. The 927 (type III) looks pretty good, and from the measurements, it seems slim.
                However, measurements seem to vary significantly from

                to

                Are there any official numbers to go by?

                I realize it's unsanforized, so probably safe bet to go with the bigger size, then do a prewash for shrinkage.
                The type II looks good too, but I guess it's slightly boxier.

                  Does anyone have fit pics wearing a Real McCoy's M-65?  All the product shots look amazing, but fit pics are few and far between and I'm not sure how to size (split between small and medium).

                        I was looking for a simple and clean black leather jacket . . . something to replace my black LVC Menlo that I never really bonded with . . . two slanted hand warmer pockets, one breast pocket and button cuffs.  Having recently purchased several HH jackets, I wanted something different for this jacket . . . I wanted something more relaxed, but still historically rooted.  I loved the photos of the Real McCoys Oklahoma, but I was concerned about the deerskin.  While I wanted a more relaxed hide, I did not want something thin or lightweight like my Menlo.  Rather, I wanted a hearty and rugged hide akin to a good horse, without the rigidity.  After much contemplation, I took the plunge and went with the RMC Oklahoma sight unseen.  I own a RMC Buco J-100 and the quality is extraordinary, so I was confident that the Oklahoma would not let me down.

                        The Real McCoys Oklahoma far exceeded my expectations.  First and foremost, the deerskin is indescribably incredible.  It is as rugged and hearty as my HH jackets, yet relaxed and pliable . . . exactly what I was looking for.  The grain and texture of the deerskin is exquisite.  I am awestruck by this leather.  Likewise, RMC’s quality and craftsmanship is superlative.  The stitching is stellar.  The corduroy lined cuffs are a great detail.  My only gripe is the 1930s Talon zipper . . . while it is historically meaningful, it is not the easiest to operate (many thanks to those who advised me on the zipper – I applied some candle wax and that appears to help).

                        My departed LVC Menlo:

                                  Any sizing advice for M65 field jackets?  I'm 5'10"-11", about 160 lbs, slim with a 39" chest.  I'd like it to be relatively fitted, but also layer with knits or an insulator jacket in the winter months.  Measurements I've seen on Blue in Green, Superdenim, and Inventory are inconsistent.  Does anyone have this jacket (perhaps with similar proportions) and can speak to how it fits?

                                  For reference, I'd love for it to fit like these pics:

                                    Brattman - I wouldn't normally direct people to other forums but you haven't had an answer here so… Double 00 Soul on Denimbro has the RMC M-65 and from memory is a similar build to you. Check out his posts in the McCoy's thread over there and also his older Sufu content. Hope that helps.

                                        I think they have measurements on the Blue In Green site too.

                                          Are Blue in Green's measurements typically quite accurate?  There's significant disparity between their measurements and Superdenim & Inventory.
