At this price perfection must be assumed

Sorry McCoys but at over 3k gbp the pockets must align perfectly. Beautiful sheepskin and a brave design though.

3K???? Sheeesh….. where and how do they justify that kind of price tag? I know that the so called rich people could but there aren’t that many and it’s just a ludicrous sum…..in my VERY humble opinion. Even if I COULD it’s a no-go…. And I do have a B6 or D1 on my Chrimbo list!

Welcome to purchasing POWER ( mostly Dictators-ship ) economies… sponsored by low cost crap offered to and in Western/ economies… low cost cheap Charlies…buyers! ( markets) …
We can buy thanks to all cheap Charley buyers…
Thanks for your fidelity buying our crap…hence allowing us to buy high priced ( in your perception crap) luxury unnecessary top quality …
But “ the Joy over cheap never lasts as long as Quality :)
Welcome to the biggest world market economy…

Sorry for the ranting…

Just my few years of experience dealing with/in major middle east/ far east/ asian economies… all respectful with Human Rights, Ecological/ sustainable and Copyright…
… but a lot of ( glamour/ for Westerners insane ..) purchasing power…

I’d love to know who buys this stuff. It’s priced so high that only really wealthy individuals are going to buy it, but I can’t imagine many of those are going to be interested in something like this and would instead turn to something from a high end fashion label. Really bizarre.

I've never had a Real McCoy in my hands... but I don't understand their concept at all.
A weird misaligned D-1, an Irvin jacket (over $4000) with Talon zips...
Am I missing something that justifies these prices ?
In French we call this : "de la branlette". :rolleyes:

Please enjoy some Asian “ economies “ and “ culture “ for “a while” and you will surely understand… :)
As an evidence and cross-example…in France.. try to find a French native doctor working for the CMU or SECU low fees ( according to convention)…
All good ones leave and work for real $$£¥¥€…abroad… The only one left in Gov SECU /CMU system are from abroad…maybe no so bad but… according to State standards… hmmm…
Money calls and rules…as a general picture… ( like it or not… FACT!!… private clinics medics etc …still there… timing and extra €€€€ needed to enter…)…
The same rules apply and explain it all also for useless luxury or not goods..

I had a lovely RMCJ M-422a, one of the ‘never should have sold it’ scenarios, but even that wasn’t worth what they would charge for it these days. But as we’ve said a time or two before, there must be folk out there prepared to pay these ludicrous prices, or RM and their ilk wouldn’t be in business.

I bought a B-6 last week. People like myself who can afford but I don’t like overpaying for stuff even though I can afford it. But after handling and ordering the other brands I view the McCoy as an investment piece that will hold its value. I will still be able to sell it for close to the price I paid in 5 yrs time if I don’t wear it often which I won’t be.

With respect I thought you had left the building.
