Personally, not a fan of that colourway and those chunky knits.
The previous pattern was much better.

Hmm. . 'Rare inspired horse hide leather '...others were inspired long before this version and now use Capeskin. It is nice looking though and the Poland leather looks great,but the price is prohibitive particularly this side of 2008. The pale lining and ribbed knits are interesting. The buttons look odd though.
Hey Real McCoys even sell crisps !!

so basically real mccoy Japan are over rated

These are only my thoughts. Still say that Eastman are hard to beat.

Depends what you're looking for. I still think that the RMJP 37J1B is one of the nicest around - I'd buy one in a minute if I could find a 44.

Same thoughts here. Just looks odd to me.

Hope you're not a 44 - I turned Japan upside down without success - or I'll stalk you

nah im a vintage size 42 and i think these come up a bit small, do you know where i can get one of these on the japanese market i think this is my next purchase, the real mccoy version of the 3717B look really nice

 

[Dr H]

Try one JP auction sites, they come up often in small/med sizes.

what do you thinks nicer the buzz or mccoys version

 

[Dr H]

McCoys for me (neater), but I like the sea water wash Buzz too.

 

[bseal]

Ain't nothing compared to the GW A-1 which the good doctor is essentially giving away.

 

[Dr H]

Could have been tailored for you Steve...

True that. Blame it one the Menlo goat.

The RM 37J1 is a great jacket. I own some other RM stuff (t-shirts, a hoodie, and I believe my Lee 101Zs are RMs) and it's all outstanding. Pricey, though.

 

[omarco]

I have a few McCoys bits too - sweatshirts, tshirts, chinos and denim and its lovely stuff, beautifully made. I think their cloth jackets are excellent too but I'd draw the line at their leathers, I reckon others do it better for less.
