One day early for AJBers, here is my RgT No Time To Die Bond Garage Jacket Review and Brand Story...... what started out as a simple review evolved into a story from Karl, the owner and founder of RgT, where he discusses HOW his jacket wound up in a Bond film. It's a journey of authenticity, happenstance, and a little luck....this is a longer video than our typical review but I think you will enjoy it! This will be for public view tomorrow.....
David, as predicted a great interview with the very humble and likeable Karl. A fascinating insight into a family brand dropped head first into a global franchise.
Love the Tom Ford armhole comparison!
So nice to see and hear someone so genuine and connected with their business & customers - I love the fact they use a small family owned facility to sew the jackets.
Even more excited to receive my jacket now........I suspect it's been caught by customs (tax!) - wish it was was evasive as Bond....
My name has changed! I’m no longer dufus......now I’m DB6

Great video David, good to see some more modest small brands getting their time to shine. -{
I'll be that guy - what are you doing to 'train' the collar, if anything? Besides shaping it each time you wear it, seeing as it's made from a pretty sturdy fabric.
I got no problem with people making a "little" money but charging more than double the jacket price and a 40% market up on the watch is just obscene! He must think that Bond fans have more money than sense ) ) )
Danielle is rarely behind the camera now a days....she is when I have a live stream at an event...I have some editing help and some filming help every now and then.....
I found out about Rogue Territory a while back when I was looking for a chore jacket. I think it was a site like GearPatrol, GearMoose, or HighConsumption that put Rogue Territory in a list of jacket companies. I believe the only reason I didn't go with a Rogue Territory jacket was that old pocket watch hole which I didn't know at the time. And how it contrasted against the color of the jacket. Plus I have a similar material jacket that I can wear on motorcycles with protection too so I wanted something a bit lighter like what Dalton wears in License to Kill.
Good story on how the Rogue Territory jacket was picked. It's odd that Daniel Craig's Bond rides motorcycles so much and someone here picked out a motorcycle book in Bond's Jamaica home, that the costumers didn't go with an actual biker jacket. I'm curious how Bond will get or wear the Rogue Territory jacket as well though. I guessed originally that Bond would wear it when he gets into London. Since once he gets Dalton's Aston Martin, Craig is shown in a suit. I hope the Rogue Territory jacket isn't just a pickup jacket like that one scene in Quantum of Solace. Still, Rogue Territory seems like a cool company. I'll probably still get something from them in the future.

We discuss the henley seen in No Time To Die which has been spotted in no less than THREE scenes from the trailer alone. Is this a versatile piece of Bond fashion that we should all own? We discuss the details in this video.

It's too early to tell, but I suspect that Craig wears two sizes of the henley. The shirt looks fitted on him when he wears it alone, although not super tight, but I don't think the sleeves would extend past the sleeves of the N.Peal sweater if he wore the smaller size with that outfit. The slightly overlong sleeves seem to be part of the Rag and Bone relaxed look. Seeing you in the video, for instance, I don't see the same length in the arms.
So it might be another case where two sizes are both screen accurate.

Hey David, wanted to thank you for taking the time to go so detailed with the sizing in your vids. I picked up the rag and bone henley and thankfully I watched your video. I am 5'11 1/2 with a 41 inch chest so there is no way I would even think about getting a size S but after watching your video I realized it was probably the right size. Picked up the last one at my local bloomingdales and it fits me like it was tailored for my body.
I love Rag & Bone, almost all my jeans/chinos are from the brand amongst other items I love but their sizing is very confusing at times. I guess it's supposed to be a "relaxed look" but that just isn't my style so sizing down was definitely the right option.
Anyone seeing this, please size accordingly. If you want a fitted/Craig look, you have to size down.

I would agree with that statement regarding the sizing down. I purchased 2 XL's and decided to wash one of them to see how it reacted to it's first wash and dry. It actually shrunk enough that it fits nicely, not super close but close enough that i can't fit a t-shirt underneath it. I think i may exchange my XL for a large and see what happens when i wash it I do wish that Rag and Bone actually provided physical measurements for each size as it would make sizing a little easier especially when it's a more relaxed fit.

Just shows how bodies can be very similar but still different. I’m 6”, 41” chest, around 80kg/175lbs, athletic build and the medium (usually a large in most things) is a perfect SA fit for me—I doubt I could move in the small!
