The Real McCoys

[davito]

Jord mate thx, yes its a fantastic jacket. Love everything about it, from the wool, to the talon zippers, the brass nickle plated buckles and finally the shiniki horsehide detailing.

I can fully recommend it

Looks really nice IMHO.

They are! But they are not RMC. It's Toys McCoy. Really nice denim, slightly tapered cut. Totally unterrated imo!

Enjoy ya addiction!

That sport Jacket looks great Davito.

Can any one give me sizing info on the McCoy's N-1, I tried Buzz Rickson's standard version and needed a 42 but in the new sea wash version the 40 was perfect, does anyone have an idea how they fit compared to the McCoy's?
cheers

Hi darkmatt thank you

Have you looked at big measurements already? I dont have the N1 but would prob go with a 36 (for a snug 40 inner chest without layering). In the sports jacket i wear a 38 as well as in the j100 both snug 40" chest. Hope helps a bit. For more comfort and bit layering 38 would be my size in the deck as well. Remember this N1 has a nice alpaca inner lining so for my style i would most def go 36. but again would def need some research to do as well

Somebody who has the N1 may chime in?

The McCoys N-1 is roomy by Japanese standards. I am usually a 42 or a 44 and I wear a 40 in the N-1 which gives a trim, authentic fit.

I am an XL in the IHM-01 (Deck Jacket) and fit into a 42 RMC with enough room for a Heavy Flanel.

Enjoy ya addiction!

Thank you, I have looked at measurements but they vary from store to store, in the first couple of stores I checked the McCoy's does seem comparable to the sea washed Buzz, but then others where way off.
I recently bought a size 40 McCoy's CPO shirt which was too small.

As anyone seen the plain version for sale online in Jp stores? only place I've ever seen them was blue in green but they have gone now.

I got mine from Vintage Paradise via Rakuten.

My guess is that some may be measuring external and other internal dimensions. The alpaca is thick so this could cause serious divergence on P2P, etc.

Hi Slab that looks great, thanks for sharing

[Snowy]

Very nice SLAB, nice statue too!

So next year I'm buying a deck jacket. In torn between this and the IH one. Does anyone have experience with both? It's a little ways away, but I like to day dream about it. I need a seriously warm coat for when I don't feel like wearing my primaloft.

[Giles]

It really matters not as no one has seen the new Iron Heart deck jacket (IHM-04) which is lined with Alpaca for the first time….Well, Winchy and I have, but we don't count.....
