Furthermore I think the Levis LVC leather jacket is a good point that hints more towards a medium
the medium LVC Craig wears is very loose and falls off the shoulders.
The medium LVC jacket measurements are (from my own jacket which was from the same season craig wore)
chest (armpit to armpit across front) 21 Inches
Shoulder seam to shoulder seam across back: 19.5 (which is responsible for that droopy shoulder look)
Barbour Beacon Sports purported Large measurements
Pit-Pit 22"
Shoulder to shoulder 18.5
if you look at the fit of the leather compared to the fit of the barbour you can see the differences. The levis is loose and the measurements of the large barbour are bigger than that which doesnt make sense that he would be wearing a large considering the fit of the lodge jacket which, as you can plainly see, is very fitted. Again, the smoking gun is, IMHO, he wore a medium in two other of his jackets (both with different types of fits) so it leads me to believe he wore a Medium. the measurements speak for themselves...AS for tailoring, we never really see the inside of the jacket. Maybe they took out the lining...
The Levi's will have been tailored to him aswell, every piece of costume for an actor is. Anybody that thinks he wore a medium in the Barbour cannot be serious. If you have his size the shoulders and arms alone it fits you snugly, I have 41cmm biceps That is without pumping up and without wearing a jumper or undershirt (like he does in the movie) and this is how tight it is on my arms, armpits and shoulder with a t-shirt!

agreed that every piece is tailored but I really havent seen any other pics or measurements to convince me that he wore a large in the Hero shots. I have to keep saying it, Craig is 5'10, 180lbs in Skyfall (He was my EXACT height/weight in Cowboys Aliens at 160lbs). Considering all measurements and pictures Ive seen, a small wouldnt fit, a large would have been slightly too big and loose (especially consdering shoulder and sleeve length) but the medium seems to hit the right notes. Alpha, what size are you in the BR peacoat?

how do you know he was 180 in SF? he didnt seem that much bigger then from C&A.
I never ended up getting the BR in the end. But as a good rule of thumb on the mediums, look at the podcast and how the medium on Mantis, it is really tight! Shoulder Arms and all. I would even say it is a touch small on him considering it pulls on the shoulders and neck.
according to kinobody.com and total gains. He definitely was leaner in C&A but I will agree not by that much. People seem to think he was Arnold Schwarzenegger big or something...He was definitely cut not huge...
and its confirmed by the costume designer (and from the people at BR) that he wore a medium. Going from there its easy to see how Bond wears a M in the barbour

He may have been 180, i dont know, but my guess is 170ish, it appeared to me that he was more or less the same weight he was in QOS. I also agree that he isn't really big at all physique wise,just really cut like you said. anyone familiar with weight lifting could see that.
I though he ordered his personal BR in large. I doubt very much that the med barbour would fit him in the shoulders. IMO he wears a large.... Possibly tailored down. I don't think it looks overly fitted on him.

have to disagree with you on the sizing of Craigs. I am roughly Craigs size (same general build, same heigh although hes more buffed up but remember, he's not Body builder big, more leaned out like Pitt in Fight Club) and the measurements Ive seen of mediums would seem to fit fine. Its confirmed he wore a medium BR peacoat and they share roughly the same chest and shoulder to shoulder seam measurement across the back.
.....
And besides, Craig wore a Medium Levis LVC, a Medium BR peacoat so why not a Medium Barbour? Logic seems to make sense to me. Although I do agree that they followed the same routine of giving Craig and the stunt guys a large when doing action scenes they did that with the BR but in shots above, I assert that is definitely a medium.
I'm not sure what Craig's measurements are, but honestly, the fit of your BR peacoat isn't the same as his. You both wore medium, but his is a lot more fitted than yours is. You've got a lot more space in the torso and a lot of shoulder over-hang on your peacoat...almost like you could stand to size down and possibly let out a small. He probably weighs more than you do, but even if he doesn't, you definitely don't have the same build/shape.
The Levi's will have been tailored to him aswell, every piece of costume for an actor is.
Agreed. All of his pieces were tailored a bit to make them look extra crisp. Of course, they leave that out. They tell us the sizes that he wears so that we'll think that, if we buy the right size, we'll have that perfect look too. People obsess over sizes, but most of the time, you'll need some alterations with ready to wear clothing.
The sizes between BR and Barbour are not analogous. I have a small BR and a medium Barbour and both are REALLY fitted. No way is that a medium Barbour on Craig.

My medium BR is snug in the shoulders and chest. I tried on a medium Barbour, and I could hardly move without fear of busting a seam or popping the chest button.

There's a lot more to it then height and weight.
I'm afraid Vinny is right. And from your photos it seems you are a lot younger than Craig so build/shape difference is hardly surprising.

Agreed. A pound of muscle takes up (on average) one third the size of a pound of fat. So two men could be the same height and weight but what that weight is made of changes their sizes considerably. I seen men who are my exact height and weight who are a bit smaller than me, and guys my same height and weight who are much bigger than me.
To make it even more confusing, here are a couple of terrible pics of me wearing my size Small Barbour. For reference, I'm 5'8-3/4", 165 pounds, with a 42" chest, 46-1/2" shoulders, and 32" waist.

... because Levis is an American brand, Billy Reid is an America brand and Barbour Tokito is a British brand design in Japan.
Having owned a Medium, Large and X-Large, there is no way on Earth Daniel Craig slotted into a standard Medium.

tight on the shoulders, arms and chest in a medium
loose on arms and with space to move in a medium

It has to be asked why do you have topless photos of mantis lol
I have to agree though I think it is probably a well tailored large as if you try them, the medium would really be pulling at the chest.

He personally owns the medium and the large

Doesn't seem as fitted, as some would have you believe.

As you can see it's snug but I'm hardly about to rip it apart at the seams...

Not too sure what your point was positing a picture of me like that and then Craig....
Think he was trying to show you up! Lol
looking good Dave, we aren't that far apart age wise so easy on the old man comments.
was proving a jacket size issue with returningson and flash.
Based on your "Bond workout" videos, I was guessing that you'd toned up a bit since that other picture. Nice results -{
Not to derail, but if there's a quick link to your fitness regimen I'd like to have a look!
