Hi everyone, first time starting a thread here.

I'm looking to purchase or trade for an authentic The Real McCoy’s Rough Wear Type A-2 flight jacket:

  • Model/Contract: Rough Wear contract preferred (Contract 27752 or 23380 with collar stand).
  • Color: Seal Brown (aniline-dyed Shinki horsehide preferred).
  • Size: Tagged 42, assuming modern RMC sizing
  • Condition: Open to anything from mint to nicely broken-in with some honest wear

Payment & Trades​

I am PayPal ready for a straight purchase, but I also have two barely-worn jackets available for trade or partial trade (+/- cash either way):

  1. The Real McCoy's Buco J-100 – Tagged Size 44 (Black Horsehide)
    • Condition: Excellent overall leather condition. Worn only a handful of times casually; virtually no teacore showing yet.
    • Disclosure / Flaw: The zipper tape at the very bottom insertion pin/box has pulled apart and separated. The teeth and puller are intact, but the bottom tape needs a repair/stitch or zipper replacement to zip up smoothly.
  2. Aero Leather Premier 1930s Highwayman – Tagged Size 44
    • Leather: Black Badalassi Cowhide
    • Lining: Black Moleskin
    • Hardware: Brass Universal main zip with ring & chain pulls on pockets, plus added zip cuffs.
    • Custom Details: Standard Highwayman yoke, collar made slightly less pointed, open inside pocket (wearer's left).
    • Measurements on order: Sleeve 26", Back 26.25". Built for a 6ft, 42/43" chest.
    • Condition: Like new, only worn a handful of times, barely started breaking in. (I have the original build sheet/receipt for verification).​
Bought both jackets a few years back, wish they were more my style but time has proven otherwise. Obviously happy to snap some quick photos and take measurements if anyone is interested in either.

Located in the US. If you have an RMC Rough Wear 42 you are willing to let go, please send me a PM with photos, your asking price, and ideally flat tape measurements (Pit-to-pit, Shoulders, Back Length, and Sleeve).
