The Real McCoys
-
I received a Real McCoys M-65 overdyed black a couple of weeks ago, and I have been living in it ever since. Great jacket.
Is that the overdyed tigerstripe m65? Would it be possible to post some detail pics of the fabric when you get a moment? Im really keen to see how it evolves!

So…. I tried this number on at inspiration...
It fit like a glove, easy to zip up, and felt spectacular. From the front its perfect, but from the back I thought it looked a tad long. Thoughts? If they had a teacore black though I probably would've bought it. This was navy.

^ I tried on, and purchased, that same number at Inspiration last year (in black).
This year, I tried on, and purchased, this one:
Also picked up this shirt:
And this sweat top:

@grandmasterben I was expecting the punch line to be that you walked away with it, doesn't fit better than that!
-
Ben, IMHO the sleeves are a tad too short.
-
Thanks for the input… but honestly, i was pleasantly surprised by the sleeve length. I like my sleeves to not be touching my hands (drives me crazy.)
The ease of which the sleeves fit and the body zipped makes me think that a size bigger would def be too big.
I really like the long sleeve t btw!

Cop. A lifetime of satisfaction awaits. Humbly, my drunk ass…

Ben, IMHO the sleeves are a tad too short.
I agree, once the creases set you definitely will have zero chance of them touching your hands, And if sizing up means the shoulders and the body are too big, then it's not the cut for you…

Which jacket is this? Thx in advance!
Enjoy ya addiction!

From the back pic if you look at the sleeves, they don't look too short no?
And I'm a little incredulous as to how much the sleeves ride up… You obviously know more than me, but heavy leather like what Alexander/aero uses ride up more right?
I've looked at pics of them worn and the sleeves don't seem to crease that much.
Same thing with denim jackets... My type 2 started with short sleeves and and they stayed there. They didn't crease up and shrink....
Most people's sleeves are too long imo.

@grandmasterben Ben my sleeves creased up right perfectly in my size38 j100, they do ride up when you rock that jacket. Overall it will take approx 6years of usage until it fully takes over your body shape. From a j100 perspective your sleeve length in that pic might be a tad short and get bit shorter after you use the jacket. But for sure a great jacket.
@Superfluous congrats man great pickups

My The Real McCoy Flannel shirt caught my eye this morning and demanded my attention so I thought…..why not? and its a lovely shirt to boot
-
Ben a trim zipped-sleeve jacket like the j100 may crease even more than fuller sleeve jackets. all depending what your personal preferences and lifestyle is @grandmasterben
Sweet flannel @den1mhead

Just bought a couple things that I thought I could wear in the office…
The button down (plain white oxford) is really nice, I sized 15, which I think is perfect, although it may appear a little small in the photos. I think I may have sized down one too far with the Double Diamond Khaki trousers though, went with a 28 instead of a 29, but I've got about 6-8 pounds to lose so they should fit better in two weeks or so. The belt is a plain Joe McCoy one, a lot less clunky/bulky than I thought, but clearly of a very high quality.
Basically the shirt is really short and meant to be worn out while the chinos are too tight right now to tuck anything into, so I ended up with a great casual outfit… Oh well!
-
Thigh looks really tight to me, how are they when you sit down?
-
@davito @Anesthetist yeah they are pretty tight but they are not uncomfortable in the slightest, I can sit and move around just fine, i just have to decide whether or not I want to be serious on my weight loss or just send them back for the 29. Probably the 29…
