Real McCoys fell off?

This is an esoteric question, but I’ve noticed Real McCoys has kind of fallen out of favor recently. Do you guys think that overall, it’s probably better to go with Rainbow Country or Freewheelers for leather jackets now?

I think they are still top three for sure. They are still excellent jackets. I just don’t hear them being talked about as the best of best anymore.

Competition caught up in terms of quality and patterns, and their retail prices in the west are crazy.

Can still be nice second hand scores. But you're crazy if you're spending used car / several months rent prices on a jacket.

Like others have said; the prices have become absurd lately. A bit like Rimowa after they were bought by LVMH. Once the prices multiply with the quality stagnating at best, it kind of becomes a question of principle for me.

That said, I have a leather and two cotton jackets from them, and they all are pretty great.
