WTB: The Real Mccoys Buco J-24L sz 46 or 44

[gily]

Hi,

I would like to buy The Real Mccoys Buco J-24L sz 46 or 44, not looking for the J-24 as I like the extra length and the back design (not looking for this jacket because of the detachable mouton collar and I know the new design 2021 of the J-24 can be bought with the mouton collar) I used to have a J-24 in size 46 and from what I have read the J-24L is a little slightly bigger than the J-24 (previous version not the 2021) so probably a size 44 can fit me if its 22" chest (pit to pit)

Just an FYI, apparently the J-24L IS indeed coming back to the lineup, NOT discontinued as previously reported.

That IS an important public announcement- thanks!

Same or modified fit (like the new j24)?

I hope is the same, I dont like the modified J24 (3D sleeve)

Yet to find someone who prefers it over the previous fit.

What does 3D sleeve mean? A built-in curve like Greg Field's jackets?

Not sure about that, but assuming the same fit.

I just bought the J24L size 44 from RMC London.

Measurements are as follows:
P2P: 21 in
Sleeve: 26.5 in
Shoulder: 18.5 in (back measurement - difficult to get accurate measurement from front due to fur collar)
Length: 26 in (from base of collar to bottom of jacket)

I'm 5'10in / 179lbs (fit): The jacket is too long in the sleeves by about 1.5 inches. The jacket looks great zipped up but looks baggy when worn un-zipped and open. The sleeves are annoying long but on my motorcycle would be just fine.

May return and try size 42.

**Note to all future buyers. The zippers on these jackets are worthless. They are fine for a fashion sense but if you plan to zip it everyday and use for actual riding, you might want to consider replacing with something more industrial. Just my 2 cents. Others my find them just fine.

Yep, its headed back tomorrow. I'm debating to pull the trigger on the 42 and have it sent in or just wait until I can go to London later in the year and try them all on to make sure I get the correct fit.

I pulled the trigger on one that was listed on eBay, should get it Friday, I hope it fits I got the size 44

I was messaging the same guy on eBay trying to get measurements of the j24l. He said pit to pit was 19” across which I thought seemed pretty small but he didn’t end up sending a pic of the pit to pit measurement which I was hoping would verify that it was actually that small. Hope it works out for you dude!

Really?? I went by the measurements he posted in the description, they were 22" pit to pit if its not 22" pit to pit as stated then I may need to return the jacket for not having the correct description but I think it should fit.

Yeah, he said those measurements were from the website so I was asking him for actual measurements. I’ve seen pit to pit measurements for the 44 j24l listed anywhere from 20 to 22, so I wanted to be sure. First he measured pit to pit incorrectly and told me it was 26” then remeasured and said it was 19”. It’s frustrating purchasing something that expensive and relying on measurements that might not be accurate. I’m guessing you bought it during that time because he never sent me a pic of the pit to pit measurement and I saw the listing ended. Once you get it let me know what the actual measurements ended up at if you can.

Oh shoot... I will let you know, hopefully it fits ok

Gil - here’s the sizing chart from TRM in the UK - from buying from them their charts are always 100% right;

You’ll be fine from the look of it.
