    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    That looks awesome! I would love to own one, but as I mentioned earlier, I just can’t find anything from RC in my size. Can you contact them? Do they take special orders? My Aero is black Vicenza, and it’s gorgeous. I actually think the Vicenza looks better than the Shinki, a lot grainier...

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    Thanks for the link. That Caboose does look nice, but I prefer black jackets. The Mulholland was the other one I was looking at it, but I’m probably going to run into the same issue since they’re so similar in measurements. I also looked into Rainbow Country, but I can’t find anything smaller...

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    @ton312 @Monitor yeah, you’re right. It does seem silly to pay that much money for anything other than a perfect fit. However, I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have one jacket that’s one size bigger than my custom Aero to account for weight changes. I mean how realistic is it to expect to be the...

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    Thanks for all the maker suggestions everyone. I’ll look into them. I can also try wearing it over a sweater when I get home and take pictures.

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    Yeah, it’s definitely a little looser, but I wouldn’t say I feel like like I’m drowning in it or anything. Part of me wants to just keep it for when/if I gain weight lol. I can definitely put on a sweater or hoodie underneath to see how it would fit. Might be a good layering piece. I suppose...

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    Do you guys have any suggestions for a similar style jacket, preferably made of Shinki HH? I like this style, the Shinki, and really wanted to like the Nelson. I’ve considered the Freewheelers Mulholland too, but now I’m afraid that I’ll run into the same issue since the sizing is very similar...

    I was afraid of that. Bummer. Thanks for the feedback everyone.

    The Real McCoy’s 30S Nelson Fit

    Hello everyone. I recently ordered the Nelson from Real McCoy’s and was wondering if the jacket looks too big on me. I am 5’7”, slim, and have a 35” chest. The jacket is a size 36. Depending on the brand, I’m either a 34 or 36. The Nelson’s smallest size is a 36, so I went with that since 34...

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    Thanks a lot for the feedback. I did hear that Japanese sizes don’t work for everyone. Sorry to hear they didn’t work for you. I was turned off by the number of zippers the Mulholland has at first, then it grew it on me. But it’s really good to know that it has internal metal snaps in the...

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    Thanks a lot for sharing your experience. I’ve been comparing the Mulholland and the Nelson for a few weeks now because they’re a similar style, and ultimately pulled the trigger on the Nelson. It arrived yesterday. I do agree with you that the Nelson is very comfortable, and it fits me very...

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    @Brandrea33 since you’ve been able to handle both the Mulholland and the Nelson, would you be able to compare the build quality between the two?

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    @Cognoscente is the herringbone cotton lining similar in feel to cotton drill?

    Oh, I would order from RM directly.

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    I see. Sorry to hear that you had such a bad experience. This is the exact reason why I hate buying clothing online, but unfortunately it’s kind of the only option we have with Japanese clothing and not living in Japan lol. I’m actually debating between the Mulholland and the Nelson myself. The...

    The Real McCoy’s / Joe McCoy Nelson 30’s Sport Jacket

    @Brandrea33 may I ask what the Mulholland debacle was? I’m guessing you ordered a Freewheelers Mulholland and it didn’t work out?

    Thoughts on Schott quality?

    The lambskin used on it is very nice. I haven’t handled many high end leather jackets that use lambskin, but the lambskin on the P213 was much thicker and felt more substantial than the lambskin used on your average mall jacket. It’s thicker than the lambskin used on the handful of all saint...

    Thoughts on Schott quality?

    Thanks everyone for your help. I think it’s the right decision too. Now comes the hard part - the wait lol.

    Thoughts on Schott quality?

    So, I put some more thought into it, and I decide to return the Schott. As much as I like the lambskin and wanted to love the jacket, I don’t think the double rider style is for me. I’ve admired this jacket for a long time, and I like the look of the double rider, but after trying it on in...

    Thoughts on Schott quality?

    Thanks a lot for your help. This is why I hate shopping for clothes online lol. It would be so much easier if I could go to a Schott store, but alas, there isn’t one near me.

    Thoughts on Schott quality?

    I’m working with Denise. She said she’d be able to extend the return deadline if I choose to go with the small.
