      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

    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.

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 .

    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.

    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.

    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

    • @UrbanLadUK

      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 🤓

      What would you recommend for a tall skinny guy? This is a great jacket but I agree. I’d love a long version.

    • @UrbanLadUK

      @@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.
