I can pay 1200 Euro for a RMNZ ANJ-4 in a size 44.
No other maker and no other size and no other type.

Why do you think you'd find a Real McCoys New Zealand Jacket in Japan?
Won't they just have Real McCoys Japan? I've seen plenty of those here.

I will let you know when I have it or them ( or not ).
I have been informed that they are available since RMC NZ closed down and Japan took over.
Anyway, lets wait and see.
Big J would be happy to meet you there, I will be in Tokyo, Kobe and Osaka. Dates not set yet.

Over the Pacific on its way to me. I bought it to sell If found anyone is interested. I also have a 10 year old size 44 that's not for sale.

Could you write the measurements of the size 42 or can it be good fit for someone just under 6 feet, weighs 190lbs and with 43" chest?

If you happen to sell the size 44 one day, I can gladly buy it whatever the price.

Hi,
I think the 42 would be too small. I have no plans to sell the 44 at the moment sorry.
I understand your desire to buy a RMNZ buy there are others out there like Aero

Aero has the best hides and craftmanship, but their zippers and stuts are far away from the originals or more importantly far away from other repro makers.Other prime repro makers have much better ( and reliable) metalware.
Just ask for details from Aero and compare to others and or original wartime zips...But the hides/ fleece from Aero are the best.
BTW there was a thread here about the quality of the Aero zips , they realy need to improve this very fast.
But again thumbs up for their leathers and sheepskins...best best ever.

As far as I know Aero doesn't offer one piece back. But in one of your Anj-4 posts I've seen it with one piece back. Was it an exception and can they make it again?

The Few in Japan still offers AN-J-4, well made, seal, all correct zip and fasteners sizes up to 44", but the prices I saw...1800,--Euro minimum.

Not all WW2 contracts had a one piece back. Aero had a two piece like the one I reviewed here.
