Real McCoy's / Joe McCoy's Jeans

[Broark]

You won't be disappointed, the 991 is probably my favorite fitting pair of jeans right off a soak. They fade pretty quickly too.

Anybody handled the B-7? It looks perfect.

Thought this was a pretty interesting blog post regarding their Boondocker boots: http://www.realmccoys.co.jp/blog/planning_section/2013/09/post-19.html

Holy sh*t, there's like $30,000 worth of engineer boots there. Granted they are a bit overpriced…

Heading to Tokyo on Wednesday..... the N1 will most likely be mine. (yeah along with other things)

It's a shame that on a 94,500 yen boot, that will presumably be made in limited numbers, they have elected to use gemming 

To be fair, it's how the original Boondocker boot was made, as far as I know. If done right, I don't think gemming is much of an issue. On the other hand, it would be interesting if they did a hand-welted boot. I think if you want to avoid gemming, this (http://viberg.com/collections/footwear/products/boondocker) is your best bet.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

since I didn't know what gemming is I just googled it and found this interesting blog post. but I dunno if it correct or not but interesting to hear that most of what we wear is probably gemmed

You'll enjoy the RMC store in Harajuku - amazing and pretty much the full range when I was there last month.

 

Also a shameless plug - just put some JMC 905 Jeans and 924 Denim Jacket in the Supermarket section.

[fre-co]

Yep been there before, and the old shop in daikanyama before that. My annual pilgrimage...

[hkl16]

Any one here own the us navy pea coat? Would it sag over time with it being such a heavy coat at 37oz? I mean hanging on a coat hanger during the off seasons. Ive seen others with heavy coats and the shoulder area would wrinkle up and stretched.

[DDDm]

I think a suit hanger of size matching your shoulder's width will prevent any stretching over the shoulder area

[P and A]

hello all, just want to make sure

 

which one is correct about real mccoy s613 fabric, unsanforized or sanforized?

 

my s613 already fit on me, just have problem with the inseam

 

its a bit too long, maybe the inseam lenght will shrink if i give it a hot soak, but if only the fabric is unsanforized 

 

i won't hem it, because i dont want to enjoy every single original detail

of real mccoy

 

if s613 is sanforized, i'll break it without soak & hem it first

 

thankyou

Mission accomplished. Pictures will follow when I am back home.

 

N-1 Jacket

RMC Lot.002

Watch cap

Free 2013 english yearbook

 

Tried on Lot.001, Lot.002 and Lot.003. The good thing about going to the source is that they have washed as well as raw in all sizes so you can get the fit just right. Couldn't quite get on with the fit of the Lot.003, Lot.001 was too low rise for my liking. Lot.002 feel pretty good.

 

I spent a fortune and could have so easily spent a whole lot more.... won't be back in Japan for at least 18 months, gives me time to pay for this trip.

[fre-co]

Interestingly the washing instructions for the jeans say you should wash in cold water in the machine and tumble dry completely to get all shrinkage. RMC won't hem their jeans until you have done this. Furthermore, they may refuse to hem them if you haven't shrunk them properly!

[sombrero]

Good pick on the Lot 002.  Strange washing instructions.   I just received my pair from BiG yesterday, pre-hemmed.  Threw them in the washer for a hot soak for 30 mins.  Came out perfectly.  Such a good cut.

[matt72178]

I am not sure if i am allowed to post it here.

I just want to know if anyone would interested in a brand new Joe McCoy chambray (lot.232s) in size 17?

Thanks in advance

[SLAB]

great pick ups fre-co

I absolutely love my RMC N1

will probably also get the watch cap this winter

 

you did not try the lot 004?

[fre-co]

No I didn't try the lot.004 in the end because I decided I wanted a straight leg.

 

Decided to follow the RMC washing guide this time...

Pleased with the fit of the jeans, might get a few inches lopped off the inseam though.

The denim is very smooth and quite soft after the abuse of tumble drying

Any advice on what the shrinkage is like on a Joe McCoy’s jacket. Got my eye on one when I visit BKK
