    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    Thanks, bud! The comparison pictures - especially the second one - was posted with the express purpose of comparing the stitching in particular, so I'm glad you guys caught it. Really appreciate the kind words!

    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    I actually agree w/ you about the Schott. I don't think I typed it into this abridged review above, but that hand oiled naked cowhide is very hard to beat. I'd probably take that over almost anything, leatherwise. Crazy to think I got it at 50% off because not enough ppl wanted to buy one. I...

    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    Yeah, that was my guess as well re: The Few Hurricane. I'm surprised their site is still up - my understanding is that they close. Zippers are different and the Hurricane is made from buffalo I think, but otherwise they're remarkably similar. I love to nit-pick, so thanks for the comment. My...

    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    Thanks man. Glad to hear from experience. I'm wearing it right now on the couch. No pants on. Not sorry. Thanks man. So nice of you to say. I've always considered myself too long-winded, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I dropped about 10 lbs over the past few months, so this is motivation to keep the...

    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    Hey thanks guys. Really appreciate the kind words, though I would also appreciate any criticisms equally. As far as I know this exact design isn't attributed to Harley. I've heard Trojan before, and there's some Simmons Bilt and Bilt Works jackets I've seen that are also quite similar, but the...

    Geez, these pics really showed up huge. Sorry for the massive files. Still learning to use the forum site.

    My New Old Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s Aviator

    Hey guys, I wanted to share with you the Real McCoy's x Harley-Davidson 1930s aviator I picked up on Yahoo Japan Auctions a little while back that many of you were nice enough to educate me about and give me pointers on (especially Blackadder and Ace. I actually was bidding AGAINST Blackadder...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I hate 95% of RL Denim and Supply line, but every once in a while they put out a great piece that looks like it could have come from RRL at 1/4 the price. This looks awesome.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    I was quickly scrolling down, saw these pics flash by, said "holy crap" out loud and scrolled back up. True story. Awesome jacket. Between you and the guy w/ the new LW J-24, you both look like what I want to look like in leather jackets when I grow up. If I wasn't already an adult. And not white.

    FS: Himel Bros and The Real McCoy's Leather Jackets

    My new leather - Real McCoys Rough Out Type 3

    I wouldn't worry about the spots. Look super minimal to me. Love the fit on you. Congrats!

    Golden Age Overcoats, Modern Day Equivalents?

    I picked up a Crombie great coat last year on sale during the summer. It's a half belt, not full, though I have to say I can't recall seeing a full belt overcoat off the top of my head around town (Philadelphia). They're quite pricey, I think list is >$2000 USD, though I see a couple on sale...

    Show Us Your OVERCOATS

    Here's my Crombie great coat - picked it up a summer or two ago. Weighs a ton, can't wait to pull it out when the weather's colder.

    "Old" Real McCoys x Harley Davidson Horsehide Jacket ID Help

    Thanks for sharing your experience. From what I hear, the earlier RM pieces weren't as focused on historical accuracy, at least based on what I read about the A-2's they were making in the 90s. I'm admittedly not at a knowledge level at the moment to judge the points of the studspots and that...

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    Thanks! My first "real" leather jacket, bought it almost on impulse when it was 50% off during a winter sale. One of those lucky finds that I bought when I probably didn't know enough to make a great decision, but still love today.

    Photos of cool jackets owned by others (non-brand specific)

    You'll imagine my surprise when I joined the forum this weekend and discovered some pictures of my Schott Hand Oiled Perfecto on this thread. Honored to have made it into someone's "cool jacket" category. I'll agree it is a touch long maybe, but I'm still relatively tall for the frame (5'11" and...

    "Old" Real McCoys x Harley Davidson Horsehide Jacket ID Help

    I'll be sure to post a first impressions of it and a ton of pictures when it gets here (maybe a week or so, depending on transit time in country and international shipping), regardless if it fits or not. I always just assumed RMC made Buco jackets from the get go, but apparently that's not the...

    "Old" Real McCoys x Harley Davidson Horsehide Jacket ID Help

    Thanks everyone for the compliments, and thanks so much ton312 for the information. That makes a whole lot of sense - I have a to say I'm a little embarrassed I didn't notice the pocket design similarities from the Lost World's 40-50s Trojan model, which has the same basic bones and swaps out...
