Heh heh, I posted pics of my collection about a year ago ago ( its grown a bit since then) on bapetalk and whilst nobody seriously dissed the brand, you have to bear in mind BapeTalk guys are seriously diehard Bape fanatics. Whilst it will probably fall of deaf ears, its fair to say RMC/Yoropiko is certainly better quality than Bape jeans, but that Bape does give RMC a run for its money when it comes to Hoodies and jackets, although to be fair such items are not made in big quantities by RMC. I always consider Bape to be a Hoodies and Sneaker specialist, everything else coming afterwards, its these two items that made the brand in my opinion. Given the majority of bape is made in Japan the quality will be a given and the prices reflect that too.
In fairness RMC aint everybodies cup of tea, same as Ed hardy aint mine ( what do I know though, they seem to sell loads of it! LOL). I think if you explain that the cotton used to make RMC is specially grown for the brand, its unbleached organic cotton, Yoropiko are generally full selvedge construction throughout ( still rare to see even with other top denim brands), the buttons are a feature, the embroidery can contain over 200,000 individual stitches, etc. etc. To be fair promoting RMC/Yoropiko is pretty easy, whether you can convince the Bape fan club is an altogether different thing
