Received mine last week ,pleased with quality its so light weight can only assume its going to be really cool -roll on summer- with regards to value still undecided have to see how it wears. washes etc. I suppose Bond's tastes are always going to be expensive, without it sounding to cliched as collectors its the price we have to pay.
Thanks for all of the replies gentleman. I really want one but I think I'm going to hold off for now. I can imagine how lightweight and comfortable they are!
I found some really nice ones at Banana Republic that will do for the moment. You could buy three of them for the price of one Sunspel! One in particular has a three button placket, chest pocket, and is fitted. The color is not spot on (it's more of a midnight blue) but it will do.
The color to select is dark agnola. They also have one in the store that is not shown on the website. It's made out of a VERY soft cotton, two button placket, chest pocket, and is also fitted. The color of this one is closer to what is seen on screen, but IMO the first one I referenced is a better match.
I ordered two before Christmas. Got one at the end of January. Got the second one two weeks ago.

So, what sharp little eyes you've got...wait till you get to my teeth.

I've recieved mine about a month ago. I've worn it twice, and gotten some nice compliments on it, when I've explained where, what, and who. I get asked for the sunspel website address.
Just to follow up, I received mine in the post, but it was for a later order from the 24th January.
Still waiting for my earlier order ?:)
Edit: Original order being sent tomorrow. They're quite nice, like someone else said they're more meshy than I was expecting, but feel like they'll be cool.
