The Real McCoys

[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.

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.

Superdenim (the distributor in Europe) are currently taking preorders for F/W13. I got an email today.

You can go through the catalogue and email them and they will get you a price. 50% down the rest payable upon arrival.

I'm afraid to look…  too many goodies

[Qinhan]

A-2's look brilliant.  Does anyone know if there is any difference in fit between the different A-2 models?

I like the look of the N 1 deck jacket olive or khaki looks good …

[ArnoldLayne]

yeah deck jacket looks great. I'm definetly going for a CPO at least  as above in red I think. Not sure on sizing though, PM'd other members but no response, anybody got any feedback? not much of a buyer of upper body items by McCoy as my experience is they are way way too slim for my kinda average height/weight. sleeves are way too long on items that fit me around the chest. I'd go for the deck too but funds won't permit so…

yeah agreed if you have the budget, Eastman for me have always done the best version of the A2 . iIt ain't flashy but for the nerds historically very correct. I'm sure McCoys is off the scale , but you need off the scale funds to pay for it. I struggled to pay the 600 GBP for my Eastman tbh, as much morally as financially, I think paying so much for clothes is a bit dubious. regardless it's just an opinion, I'm sure you'll enjoy it for years.

fit of the A2 is great but lose the popped collar

I sold my Buzz N1 deck jacket because I was so impressed with the quality of the RMC version. Still haven't gotten around to buying one though; they are sold out every season

I really like that blue (wool with leather patches) sports jacket

the badest best part about visiting/living near VMC is that i'm able to try on a shitload of things!

first visit time there since 2 days and i already had to purchased something :  JMC 991XH…can't wait! 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Great choice Rafa! I had an eye on them several weeks/months ago. Size 34 I assume? What did they set you back?

[davito]

Great choice you will love em

yes, size 34 mate…they retail for 329CHF at VMC!

the waist is like 2inches too big, but the thighs are good...so hopefully they don't shrink too much!
also tried a washed pair in 36 but were a tad too big, so i think the 34 should be right up my alley after a gentle soak/wash.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That price is A LOT better than I thought (considering import stuff, and especially Swiss prices )
Gonne check them out in 2-3 weeks when I probably go to Zurich

oh word? let me know and i'll join you (if you want to!)
gonna pick up my pair (and some other goodies) at the end of the month!

and about the pricing, they also dropped some prices cuz of the weak yen, so gotta cop

[Finn666]

sry for double!…

[Finn666]

[tatmantall]

Damn Finn, that stuff all looks great! It's probably a good thing I have never got to see any McCoy stuff in person as it might become an obsession

[Snowy]

That leather patch looks embossed/raised. tasty

[simonc]

44 is a good fit Finn, you are looking great too, think about the body length too and that tee is right on you.  The jeans are not bad.  You have meaty thighs and the narrow taper (imho) make the thighs look bigger, like a chicken drumstick.  I ain't hating.  I have the same issue with my legs I understand what you are dealing with here.  Consider the IH1955's, they were made for your body, they will make your legs look even all the way down and they are narrow at the cuff if you check the sizing, and your legs will look longer trust me.

[Snowy]

Simon, I think you may have touched on why Finn got grief on his IH-555-03's, that's heavily tapered and there were many comments about the thighs. Sounds like sound advice to me.
