Real Mccoy Avalanche Coat: Real name?

[MaydayWei]

Hello Everyone,

In light of the recent civi jacket discussions, I thought I'd ask what type of jacket this is:

(01141)希少名作 極上美品JOEMcCOY旧ジョーマッ... - ヤフオク!

[希少名作 極上美品] JOEMcCOY 旧ジョーマッコイ AVALANCHE COAT アバランチコート サイズ36 紺 ネイビー ヴィンテージ復刻 ニュージーランド製 旧リアルマッコイズ 旧マッコイ (ボア ムートン コート ジャケット ミリタリー ピーコート マッキーノコート NEW ZEALAND製) 【01141】 □商品詳細 【メーカー】 JOEMcCOY 旧ジョーマッコイ 【サイズ/実測】 表記［36］/(平置き計測) 身幅　54CM　 肩幅　46CM　 着丈　75CM　 袖丈　65CM 【

Its a Joe/Real Mccoy "Avalanche" coat, but (surely) that's not what its often referred to as, is it?
I ask this because I wish to buy a real vintage one, but for my life, I have no idea what to type into the eBay search bar.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Cheers

Not sure if this is a specific type of coat. Looks like a heavy-duty cross of a mackinaw/jeep coat and a blue N-1 with a bit of N3 sprinkled in. Mostly mackinaw in type though imo (shawl collar, buttoned, belt etc).

I've been tempted by those too. Buzz have done a couple of variants of the same basic design - they call it a Coastguard Coat - one being very much like the one Jimmy Stewart wears one in NIGHT PASSAGE, with leather completely surrounding the pockets, but I prefer the double-breasted RM with just the leather triangles.

Buzz Ricksons make a similar coat in buffalo

Yes, they've done leather and wool versions.

Nice pictures,as said i'd put this in the mackinaw/jeep coat territory if you're looking for one. Apparently DIEWORKWEAR did a blog about these type of coats> https://dieworkwear.com/2017/01/18/the-rugged-jeep-coat/. The examples seem on the very heavy duty end with the RMC one influenced in materials and details by the (blue) N/1 deck coat and a bit of the N3 family of jackets.

Did a little research after, and turns out it’s called a “barnstormer” coat. But really, it’s only one variation of the style. I did consider jeep coat, and Mackinaw Coat. But I believe it’s simply an unnamed variation of the barnstormer.

I like the looks of those. had a few original Mackinsws in the past and wore same in previous Jeeps. I like 'em.

Bronson do one. I would associate that style of collar with a Mackinaw rather than a Barnstormer.

Picked up this Toyo Enterprise one for a good price on Yahoo!Auctions. The lining is only acrylic but I like the conservative use of leather. It's a size down from what I'd usually consider my size and so feels just big enough -- likely only room for a thin sweater or fitted shirt underneath -- though a bigger size would've meant the arms would be too long.

That’s a fine looking coat mate.
And hopefully for a good price that you wouldn’t mind thrashing around in it like you were meant to!
