The Real McCoys

[Max Power]

Would you say the superdenim measurements are accurate?

[davito]

@Max Power I buy usually most mccoy stuff at VMC and if i buy online i go from the size i am used to wear in certain items and send an Email - in this case to Lewis - to ask how it compares to the fit I wear in another mccoys top. I think the measurements on the sweats are ok there and also correspond with the ones at BiG as far as i see. I will see how the double face fits when it arrives.

For example the heavyweight Ballpark joe mccoy crewneck fits tts imho, in RMC Military sweats size up from your usual size as they come slimmer

How I wear my heavy Ballpark crewneck small

@davito:

@Qinhan this is my Ballpark heavyweight small

Double face due to arrive today expecting a fit like this gentleman wore back in the 40s

And here we go size small, this sweat is superwarm very comfy to wear. This will get lots of love

Looking good Davito! How do you rate the fit compared to regular McCoy sweats?

[Jeef]

Nice Davito, that looks great! Is that the same fleece as the other Ballpark sweats or is it thicker?

@SepticSef thx Sir. Speaking only for joe mccoy Ballpark and comparing the crewneck and after hooded sweat above they fit more or less the same in the same size imho. As said if you choose a Military sweat from RMC collection sizing is usually different and recommended one up from your usual size. If you go for the other sweats i believe they fit tts but i currently own 5 ballparks which i all wear in small. I have a mccoy sweat from years back in a medium but could wear it in a small if i had the chance to buy again, the medium fits me not bad just a bit oversized in shoulders and chest area but its ok. Let me know if you need further help. Its all also depending how you gonna prefer wearing your sweat.

All good Davito, Thanks for your help!

Thx man @Jeef , different innerlining see the pic i tried to make. Double face is much warmer and is thicker due to the double loopwheeled cotton. Double face left, crewneck right

[Jeef]

That looks toasty. And it fits you perfectly. I already have too many sweatshirts but I am really interested in this one.

[davito]

thank you @Jeef  i have many too but as you said yourself, I was hefty interested in it too and still its different to the others

Congrats Davito, tried that sweat on the other day at RMC. Really nice. Super thick and warm!

Here is a pic of the new catalog page for that sweat. Another nice vintage photo.

Perfect fit dude!

[davito]

Thanks guys @Chiba J. @grandmasterben

@Chiba J. The yearbook 15 is fantastic got it too yesterday, super nice photos, thx for sharing. The sweat is extremely nice and wears well. Like you mentioned thick and warm.

[Chiba J.]

I'm happy to have played a small role in the '15 catalog. It's really a fabulous publication!

I am really loving my n-1 undershirt. I think I'm starting to favor lighter weight and closer fitting mid layer sweats these days, and the n-1 fits the bill perfectly.

[davito]

@Chiba J. Bro could you post a fit pic of your N1 undershirt and your navy sweater if you have time, such nice pieces

[Chiba J.]

I'll try my best to get that done!

[Max Power]

Looking Forward to my Taxi Driver Jeans!

just took delivery of the mermaid CPO shirt MP14102.  i think it's the best single piece i've ever had from mccoy and i've bought pretty much most of it over the past 5 years.  i had a buzz rickson from a few years ago which is a nice shirt but absolutely no comparison with the mccoy take.  i think it's based on a custom built original of a top quality felted wool; secret interior pocket and, of course, the mermaid cuff detail.  worth every penny from the best label in the world.
