For advocates of Japanese Repro brands, links drawn between a new release and a time gone by can be a really exciting thing. The Real McCoy’s, one such brand, has recently come out with a beautiful denim parka that recreates the jacket worn by US Navy sailors in the 1930’s.
The parka itself is an almost exact replica of the original. It is a hooded, long sleeve, half button pullover with white stitch detailing. While there isn’t a selvedge edge in sight, you can’t help but admire the attention that Hitoshi Tsujimoto and his team put into this parka.
