The Real McCoys made in UK

[indoverificator]

Hi,

Let me introduce myself first. My name is RIva and I am from Indonesia. I found RM B6 jacket that was made in UK, does anyone can help me to give more information about it since as far as I know RM only produced in Japan and New Zealand for their sheepskin jacket line. please advise and thank you for your time.

Hello and welcome to VLJ. I am sure that someone will have the definitive answer to your question.
For me I wonder if it was made by Eastman Leather?

Hi Steve,

I seem to recall reading somewhere that RM did manufacture in the UK at one point. I’m sure I read that on this forum but don’t know where or when. I’m sure someone here will have more and better info.

RMNZ did have a factory here in the UK for a short time. I think it was situated as part of the Fenland tannery, Paddy mentioned it to me when the subject came up here several years ago.
I believe the idea was to negate import duties.
Andrew Swatland posted photos of an RM B3 with a made in uk label.

Real McCoys UK made B-3

At the request of John Lever here is a thread on my duo tone B-3. This jacket is a bit of an enigma. It has a RM label in it along with a Made in the United Kingdom label. The fleece was from the Fenland tannery, which could account for the made in the UK label, but there is no proof it was...
