Real McCoy's / Joe McCoy's Jeans

[unders]

Imagine carrying shedloads of stock and not being able to dump it in a sale. That’s rough. At least End will be able to swallow that up. 

In a similar vein Nike SB has been a significant factor in some skate shop closures. There are no restrictions on sales, but there are minimum order volumes. Of course the allure is for the dunks, but if the other stuff doesn’t shift some small retailers just can’t deal with the cash being tied up. 

Anyway, after derailing with Nike chat he’s an (overexposed, excuse the sunlight) JMC coin pocket fade:

The price hikes are really taking the mickey... set off against general view of quality issues. There is even a tracksuit for £1,136!

 

100% Nylon as well for the £1,136 tracksuit. 

The logo t-shirts look a bit tacky too, they would need to pay me to wear one of them not the other way round. 

I've noticed Boncoura has gone a similar way with huge price increases and labels stuck on all the clothing, has put me right off.

Re the logo tees,  I actually bought one. When I first got into RMC years back I really wanted the original logo ringer t. They only came in black or white, couldn't find my size anywhere. When the new one popped up I grabbed one just to scratch a 9 year itch!

Post-wash my S613.

[indigoslaves]

Alpharikk, thats very nicr fades of your jeans. Adoring how the puckering appears, such a nice pair!

[alpharikk]

@indigoslaves

Thank you mate!

Nearly 150 bucks for this?! What is RMC thinking...

Well, every time their owner is at Inspiration, he's dressed head to toe in ridiculous hypebeast clothing. Maybe that's gone to his head.

[CSL]

Well if that's what it takes to get him into that 'generous discount frame of mind' I'm all for it. Loved the bargains at Inspiration a couple of years back.

[goodrain]

I didn't know RMC brought stuff to sell at Inspiration. What did they have?

[dudewuttheheck]

I have friends that have bought leather jackets from them at the event. I tried on several jackets a few years back as well. I don't think the size selection was very wide though.

[aho]

Yeah the McCoy's setup is always my favorite at Inspiration, insane deals to be had. 

Tsujimoto is probably my favorite personality of the Osaka 5 (admittedly haven't met Yamane or the WH twins though); Love his DGAF happy go lucky style and he's got great humor. Whenever I'd bump into him he'd yell "Chicago!" since that's where I'm from, and he'd also pass out the freebies/candy if you cross paths. Complete character, nothing but respect for the guy. 

 

[Broark]

I mean I'm sure the actual printing process for that t-shirt is insane, it looks incredibly detailed.
But that doesn't make it not super ugly.

I recently got the 001XXJ Type 2 that I have been searching for a long time. The fabric is incredible. Hardware is probably my favorite in between all the types 2 I've had. And the fit is perfect. I'll try to post up some pictures of it soon. 

Honestly a really nice type 2, agreed!

[Toegun]

@edmond and @Collin fit pics please, would love to see them. Got the type 1 and really need to put more wear into it, the fit is bloody lovely.

On the last page swipe, there’s a Langlitz Leathers collab.

I'm trying to locate a Type 3 Suede jacket from Joe Mccoy's in brown 38 ( https://www.realmccoys.co.jp/catalog/products/detail.php?product_id=3703 ) but couldn't find one. I've emailed a couple of seller and searched everywhere. No one has it in stock. Any hints or have you seen one ? Thanks

[Geeman]

Any of the official dealers can order it in if it's still made. 

If not good luck with search

My old RMC 37J1B Zielinski

I sold this on to Sugar Mountain (remember that dude?) when we hooked up for a pint in Sheffield

 

[fre-co]

Anyone got the reverse sateen fatigue pants? How do they look when aged?

[Spiraltoy]

Just got this ballpark in the mail from @Flash.

Cheers! Loovin it! 

[UkeNo]

Have a read of this. Not too impressed with McCoys on this one. 

[Broark]

Yeah that's a real shame. The story in the comments about them photographing a vintage collector's pieces without permission under the intention of buying them is even more scummy.

[UkeNo]

Agreed. Not necessary to go about development like that and even less acceptable to directly copy someone else’s take/spin/reinterpretation on an item. Not cool. 

[Geeman]

In no way trying to defend their actions but they,.and those mentioned,  are a repro brand.....

Anyone also noticed that Buzz and RMC new releases are often the same/very similar items
