The Real McCoys

I'll do a hot soak now Thanks

[Max Power]

I got little to almost none shrinkage out of the fabric. But I did some "real" pictures and they make me think that I sized right.

[hajduk]

u sized right Max of course :))
that´s strange at u got none shrinkage…
i have 2 of these. the Balls Park line.
got some serious shrinking. arms...length...chest...

[Maynard Friedman]

If you want shrinkage, forget the hot soak. Hot wash (60C) and tumble dry should do the trick.

Yeah max power great pick up and looks good. I wear mine almost everyday. For shrinkage I'd go with maynard's advice but be careful with tumble drying on a full run.

Here is my beloved heather grey hoodie in my usual small on a very grey Sunday. It has not touched water so far

[Finn666]

great fits you two!

[Max Power]

Fantastic fit David and thanks for the hint!

Just a couple of quick photos of my latest acquisition.  A big thank you to Babyknight who was super helpful with sizing advice.

[davito]

Congrats on that beauty Q. Wear it in good health

@Max:

I think one size down would be too small or uncomfortable. And it hasn't been washed yet. But I must say I love it more and more…

don't size down big man they shrink a lot in the wash.

i'm finding the summer sweats in large tight round the midriff compared to the winter weights and that's pre wash.

i've had a of mccoy delivered in the past few weeks will post later today.

More pics, Quality isn't too hot (taken on an iPhone)

Over all I couldn't be more pleased with this amazing shirt! In my opinion the cut and shape of the shirt is fantastic, pretty short in the body Which I like and the size is spot on for layering which is the whole reason I bought it,
The wool is so thick and warm, I had a bout 2 miles to walk this morning to work and it's down to -2 here, I had a t-shirt, Cabourn Roll neck and this on top and was as warm as toast walking in!

i got this bad boy in red.  its lush; heavy wool that is thicker than a filson jacket so expecting it to be very warm in the winter.

my only gripe is that the buttons seem a little small given the sheer thickness of the wool.

perhaps things will loosen up over time but they are a little fiddly to button up.

Taking the chance to show off my A-2 Flight Jacket that I got from The Real McCoys this past year. Cut from their new leather, the quality of the 2013 A-2s is impeccable and unbeatable. Buttery good.

Ditto…  Not big on popped collars in general.

i have recently become obsessed with that A2… thinkingn this maybe my next purchase

[Bullitt]

i bought that A2 10 days ago. Quality is stunning! It wasn't my target, cause of the price… i tried on some Aero's and Alexander Leathers and at last that Real McCoy. So, i had to adjust my budget. I've found the leather much nicer, feels like more natural and it hasn't that "glossy" shine like the others.
Excuse my english, i'm german speaking.

[tatmantall]

Thanks for the info! I almost asked if anyone had a comparison between aero and alexander, is rather pay the price once than buy something and be unhappy later down the road and then end up purchasing what I should have got the first time! Appreciate lt greatly mate.
