The Real McCoy - Red

We’ve all heard the familiar dictum, something so authentic and utterly substantial it can be nothing less than “the real McCoy.” With origins stretching back to 19th century Scotland, when good sipping whiskey was a drop of the real Mackay, the term is uttered to this day to denote that which is the genuine article, the realest of deals. So it should come as little surprise that when Bonobos crafts a heavyweight cotton twill work shirt in a classically stylish salt-of-the-earth plaid, it has to be the Real McCoy.

The Real McCoy is a substantial garment, sturdy enough to be worn as a heavy shirt or a light jacket. Made from the same cotton twill as our solid-colored Turnbuckle, and featuring the same reinforced elbow pads for extra durability, the Real McCoy is the quintessential casual cold-weather shirt – it’s great for layering, transitional as the seasons, and will look as good on a hike or a hayride as when you’re grabbing a cup of joe or hanging around the house.
