FILSON VINTAGE FLANNEL. ONE OF THE BEST?
Buzz Rickson has a better fit
Has the 13oz gotten a softer, like the olive you're wearing? I have the 13oz for a short time now, but it almost feels like armor.
Just ordered one pair on the iron heart website
Good choice!! Enjoy your new boots!!!!
Oh my god, the Levi's will be super tight once they are soaked. They will be unwearable on you.
I have soaked and washed so far not really tight and, as a matter of fact, have stretched; the only problem is the length is not enough to cuff
Educational! Thank you sir!
Thank you!!!
What flannel shirt is that?
Timberland
What model are your Buzz Ricksons? Are they the 1942 model?
Excellent and very thorough video. Thanks for taking the time to make a great detailed breakdown of this jacket.
Thank you!!!!
Did you have to pay any extra import duty when you had them shipped to the UK or was it all included in the shipping cost?
Was all included in the shipping, I don't know how that happened because I always pay duty tax when I buy from the USA at that price tag and above, making the purchase an excellent deal
@UrbanLadUK awesome, that's super handy to know! Much appreciated
Size numbers are so confusing. In my world a size 44 (chest) is a large, a 46-48 is an XL and a 50-52 is XXL. A 46R USA suit in EU is called size 56. Someone make it all make sense. Ugh.
The Japanese size is adapted to Japanese people. That why the number in the size tag do not correspond to the actual measurements of the garments
Hi, Let me know what is colour of your jacket?
I found your channel through this review and it's been very helpful. I'm a huge fan of these jeans just based on appearance and they look great on you but I'm worried that I won't be getting the bang for buck compared to other brands, how do these stack up to the other brands like Lionheart?
You are right. Sometimes, RRL is overpriced, but the quality is good. It is difficult to compare with IH, and they have totally different visions; IH has a robust design to hold the wort, and RRL is more of a fashion jean, and both are good. Sometimes, RRL has sales; on the other hand, IH never is on sale. IH is made in Japan, and RRL usually are made in other countries
@@UrbanLadUK Awesome, I'm still learning so this is very helpful. What would be a comparable jean in terms of color and fit? I don't think I want anything over 15oz since I'm in a very warm climate. Any thoughts on the Buck Mason Maverick Slim?
What’s the best flannel you have to date?
Iron Heart no doubt about it
Great review! I just purchased a pair after watching a few minutes ago. They’re 40% off right now so I jumped on a pair of the rigid
Enjoy it!!!
Are these the Rigid Indigo or the Prewashed Indigo?
These are rigid 👍👍👍👍👍
great explanation, great video, i got oni 622zr ecru secret denim 20 oz, length is 33 inch and it was nice fit, 622 is relaxed tappered
Thank you!!! Good pick, mate !!!
Hola, luego de lavarlos, volvieron a soltar de la cintura?
Pues si, pero no encogen mucho
Do you think you could wear size 42 in this (and also move) or is the 44 snug for you. To my eye it looks bit roomy.
Hi, probably 42 for me is going to be snug, 44 it is very comfy and I don't feel that is roomy
Hi Diego, I just bought these for my father and now I’m jealous and want them for myself. I am a 32 length, should I go for the true 36 length like my brave stars to get the right cuff? Thank you, loved the video!
I’m 32 in length and always pick 36 in length because I like a double cuff; 34 is ok for a single cuff. I hope this helps
Интересно,они пиляться.
Great video, your english is very good! If you slow down and work on your enunciation and practice with english syllables, you will be so much better! But you are doing great so far and i like the content of your vodeo, thanks!!
Thank you!!
how tall are you, my friend?
184 cm or 6.04 feet
@ im 5’11 180 lb should I get 42 or 44 for the real Mccoy?
for what temperature is this jacket hermano?
I have been wearing this jacket around the city at -5 Celsius, and it is perfect.
great video, thanks!
Thank you for watching!!!!
Hi! I have a 18oz IH 666 Waist 36. Will it be the same size if I order a 25 or 21oz 666?
The best way to pick the right size is by measuring your IH 666 and compare with the size chart of the model that you want to buy because the sizes in different models do not always have the same measurements
If you decide to try some JK boots make sure to follow their sizing because they are vastly different from the other PNW boot brands. I’m an 8.5 Brannock and I wear an 8e in most PNW boots but I went to their store to get measured which was 8-8.5 Brannock, JK said I’m a 6.5eeee in JK.
Thank you for the advice!!! 👍👍👍
Let's talk about the beacon please🎉
It is already in production. I'm working on a few videos, and one of them is the B. Beacon review
Yours is the bond...got the same🎉owesome
Great introduction to this brand thank you
Thank you for watching!
Cold and cheaply made abroad. Filson uses a cheap, inferior cotton tee shirt like liner. The waxed jacket is clammy when you wear it. Given the exorbitant cost of this jacket, filson should have used a quality light wool liner and lined the pockets as well. You might want to look at their warmer choices - the CPO shirt and or the down insulated waxed shirt jacket. The upside is that while you are cold and clammy wearing this Cruiser, you look good. Smile if you can.
Sorry to hear that. I don't have your experience with these jackets, and I own two myself in different sizes, one for layer-up the other to wear in warmer weather, and so far the quality hasn't disappointed me 👍
9:01 - всё красиво и модно на вас смотрится.
Thank you!!
I have two of these & can confirm they run true to size.
Great video comparison .. personally, I like the Real Mccoy’s version I have the blue version you are featuring and I have the iron heart in khaki . I like the fit on both equally. The buzz rickson sleeves seem long and I don’t like longer sleeves I’d rather not roll them up . With the Real McCoy or Iron heart N1s I dont have to roll them up and the sleeve openings are more tapered on both.. the buzz rickson sleeve opening is a bit wide .
The BR pick the fitting or the original Kakhi jacket, the blue version has a slim fitting with looks and feels better 👍👍👍
Urban Lad this is out of the review. BY any chance do you know where i can find the Mackinaw rancher coat, Lee made a repro a two years a go bat i cant found it new or any repro. Except the Mackinaw military...apreciate. I am going for another navy deck jacket bat silvermans.Thanks pal
Sorry, I have no idea, Maybe on eBay. But I will check around the web
I really appreciate your ation and demo, etc.. I love learning about fabric construction, and such.
Thank you!!!
Fit is on point.
Thank you!!
I sold my Real McCoy's and bought an Iron Heart IHM-35 Alpaca-Lined Whipcord N1 Deck Jacket Black/Black, which suits my physique better. Quality and price aside, the best thing is to try them all and choose the one that suits you best. Thanks for the honest review.
The IH is in my list for the next year in black!!!
Diego , great video if you have the iron and resin cruiser will you be doing a review on it
Sorry, I don't have the I&R jacket but add to my list!!
Hi Diego! You said your foot measure is 12 with Wesco. How about the corrispondent european measure? Thanks for your contribution!
You got me!! I have no idea about my European sizing; I'll find out
Thank you so much that you mention the sizing now in cm Top 👍🏻 notch
Thank you for watching!!
I found a vintage 'golden fleece' spiewak one about 15years ago for £2 in Afflecks palace
Wow!!!!! 👏👏👏👏👏
I always wanted to buy one but am concerned about the itchiness due to the wool and alpaca lining. How itchy is each one? Which one is itchier?
The more alpaca, the less itchy it is; in my experience, if the wool is good quality, there is almost no itchiness. Wearing both the less itchy is The Real McCoys
@@UrbanLadUKif you look in your left pocket on your BR N1 there should be a care label. It says it’s 50 - 50% wool and alpaca
Hello, first I would like to thank you for your interesting and informative video. I owe several pears of row denim jeans including LVC Cone mills made in USA. Finally I decided to try Japanese jeans to compare to US ones. After weeks of research I finally choose Denim by WH 224.Your video help me too much. I want to ask you about the sizing compare to LVC STF. All my jeans are W32 and after soak getting a bit tight.Thinking to order W33.
Hi!! If you already have selvedge denim, take your best-fitting jeans, Levi's LVC, measure the waist flat, and compare with the size measurements on the website. According to that, pick a size. It's not right to tell you a size tag because there are variations between brands and the brand. Sorry, but I don't want to mislead you.
@ яHi, Thank you for your reply! I wear normally W32 measured 16.5” or 42 cm The thing is that for that 224 model different inline shops shows different sizing chats. I am confused. Any idea?
The best measurements are on the brand's website, that's are the more accurate ones
I have 2 of the buzz rickson and the iron-heart, i like the iron-heart fit, i tried the original too, the buzz ricKson and the original are boxy , also kinda itchy coz its lined all the way to the sleeves. The iron-heart wins my heart fit is 10/10 for me , i wear small by the way I am 5”10 -157lbs 39chest🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
IH is a no-brainer: cheaper, good quality and improved fit
At these prices, I would just buy an original from the 1940s or 1950s. I think my one cost like 200 USD, and it looks so much better due to the aging. I'm not sure why anyone would pay more for a reproduction than a real N1 jacket.
They are expensive that's why is no-no for many people
@@UrbanLadUK These jackets are even more expensive, so I'm not sure if that makes sense.
What I mean is the BR or TRM are too expensive for many people
@@UrbanLadUK Ah, I understand now.
Great comparison. Now I’m curious about your thoughts on the IH N1 compared to these two.
IH is a no-brainer, cheap, and of good quality with an improved fit. The only downside is for the people who want the original specs
@ thank you!
I'd like to get an N1 jacket to use on my motorcycle because of its wind resistance, but I'm definitely going to get one that doesn't say USN. The Real McCoy's looks promising.
There is a version of BR that has no inscription and is cheaper I believe on Klatxon Japan's website
Thanks for the comparison! I really like my BR heavyweight N1 but I eventually had to resew EVERY button on the front back on. When my attachment jobs started to let go as well I gave up and sewed on a row of slotted buttons like you’ll find on Canadian military parkas, hopefully job done. I think the problem may be twofold: the buttons the jacket comes with are slightly too big for the holes, and they’re sewn on flush to the fabric instead of shanked. My option fixes both of these problems as the slotted buttons are ever so slightly smaller and the tape holding them on has a bit of lift to allow easier insertion.
Thank you!!
I have a Bronson that I wouldn’t trade for e of these.
Bronson is good quality at an affordable price
Excellent comparison. The Real McCoys/blue jacket replicates the first version of the N-1 jacket from late 1943. The Buzz Rickson/khaki jacket replicates the later 1944 version. Hence the small differences in some of the details. Buzz Rickson does one version of their khaki N-1 with the heavyweight alpaca/wool lining (this one also has the additional small DEMOTEX tag/label) and a second version w/ thinner/standard alpaca/wool lining - which should fit and feel more similar to the lining in the blue Real McCoys version. The Real McCoys N-1 looks like the quality of the fabrics/lining is slightly better than the Buzz Rickson jacket. However - in my humble opinion - the thicker/looser khaki BR N-1 just looks more 'authentic' (or cooler) to me. I have owned both BR versions over the years - and I kept the khaki/heavweight jacket. You wear them both well! With winter coming, I hope you will have ample opportunity to enjoy them both. Thanks for all your reviews - they have helped me with a good number of buying-decisions in the past. Your efforts are much appreciated.
Thank you.
Thank you!!!!
Really helpful comparison. Would be interested in your thoughts on the Freewheelers N-1, it’s super expensive but considered the best version by some. As a tall slim guy, I find it hard to carry off the short boxy style of the N-1, which is a shame as I love the heritage and style of the jacket
Thank you!! Let's talk about Freewhelers: the price is steep. In some places, It says the lining is 100% alpaca. In others, it is 70% wool and 30% alpaca (I'm more inclined to believe the second). The quality is outstanding but not better than that of The Real Mcoys or BR. My thoughts: I don't justify spending that money on this jacket unless you really want this brand or don't care about the price tag and would like to have the jacket. Remember, if we are talking about the outer shell (jungle cloth), only one or two mills in Japan produce the fabric, and they are more likely to be the same as those provided to TRM or BR.
Thanks for sharing your insight, it means a lot coming from someone with your knowledge. Think I’m going with the Real MCoys and save myself £400! Videos are great, please keep it going 🤓
TRM is an excellent jacket!!
What would you recommend for a tall skinny guy? This is a great jacket but I agree. I’d love a long version.
@@WillSnyder-g9z The TRM looks shorter than the BR because it is a slim fit. I don't know how tall you are, but there is a downside to the BR: If you are skinny, it is going to look loose unless you don't care. My recommendation is the TRM, which looks very stylish compared to the BR.
