SOLD - The Real McCoy's Steinbeck Leather Jacket | Size 42/L

[christian-h]

Hi Fedora.

Update* - The jacket has been sold and I can happily inform you that it stays in the Fedora Lounge Family.

Up for sale: The Real McCoy’s Steinbeck, size 42. I purchased this jacket new from RMC London, I think it’s from AW17. The jacket is in really good condition and It has been treated well; it's easy to tell from the pictures.

The Real McCoy's Steinveck is a 1930's style sports jacket based on a vintage piece. Back then most sports jackets featured a closed end type zipper. For usability purposes, they soon change to separable ended zippers which we are more familiar with today.

Made using the best quality Horsehide and Vegetable tanned, the collar also has periodically correct stitching to reflect the iconic character of the jacket from the Great Depression era. The jacket is complete with zipped chest pocket, two slit pockets and adjustable cinch’s on the back.

Please note: There's one stitch that has sprung loose in the shoulder area. I have been adviced by Real McCoy's (and a well reputed tailor/cobbler in Sthlm) to wear it as it is, since this doesn't effect the construction (still worth mentioning).

Now? Some pictures:

Those slit pockets are zip?

Nope, no zip. They fit close to the body when the jacket is worn.

I have a mobster. I think the Steinbeck is a nicer jacket. But I think it's closer to the nelson than the mobster

You're totally right, thanks. I sometimes mix up Nelson, Mobster and Steinbeck. Here's a link to Nelson:

Btw: I have the leather pull tab thing that's attached to the zipper when new is included (never used).

Can you confirm if the chest is less than 22"? Seems to be narrow for a size 42 jacket

21.5-22" depending of how you measure, so 22" true to size.
