Really Real McCoys ?

After that last listing with a Chinese knockoff Real McCoy A-2 being sold by a Japanese seller, I'm being more careful about reading the 'fine' print. I'm guessing these are really Real McCoy jackets. Measurements seem rather small for a sz 40. Both are nice looking jackets.

Maybe I was too hasty about the size, I looked at the measurements for my Sefton Sz 40 and the RMJ is a close match.

Sefton Sz 40

from pit to pit: 21"
front length: 21 3/4",
shoulder seam to the end of cuff: 23 3/4 ",
collar stand to the bottom of the waist band: 22 3/4",
shoulder seam to shoulder seam: 17 3/8"

RMJ listed:

ARMPIT TO ARMPIT 21 1/4"
SHOULDER TO SHOULDER 18 1/4"
SHOULDER SEAM TO END OF LEATHER 23"
COLLAR TOP TO END OF LEATHER 23" END OF KNIT 25 1/2".

Yes, they're Real Mcoy's ... Real McCoy's New Zealand, but near enough. ;)

Their Rough Wear patterns are tight through the shoulders, so you may need to go up a size. The older 'house' McCoy's Sportswear should be an easier fit.

I recently purchased a Eastman Rough Wear in Sz 38. I took a shot because the measurements were close to my Sz 40 Seftons (which fit like a custom made jacket), and the ELC Rough Wear fits fine.

.... and I was forgetting that you bought the sand papered, RM size 42, last year, so you know how this one will fit.
