Inspired by mid-century American style, The Real McCoy’s painstaking reproductions of vintage military and workwear pieces manage to feel retro and modern. Case in point, the HMC Tanker Sweatshirt and N-1 Jacket. Both pieces have an embroidered patch on the right chest with a US Coast Guard skull, Canadian maple leaf and the words HMC Tanker. The symbols on the patch reference the transport ships used by the Royal Canadian Navy to supply British and American naval forces during WW2’s Battle of the Atlantic. Made from 12oz. loopwheel fabric, the HMC Tanker Sweatshirt ($326.00) has extra thick ribbed trims and an uneven rubber ink print on the back – giving it an authentic ’40s finish. The N-1 Navy HMC Tanker Jacket (1,134.00) channels deck jackets worn by aircraft carrier crews during WW2 and the Korean War. An alpaca lining inside the thick cotton shell provides extra warmth.
