This is not strictly a Bond item but since it's John Smedley I took the liberty to Putin here ( 
) ) instead of putting it in the off-top section.
Anyway, 2 years ago Umbro made a collaboration similar to the one that Anthony Sinclair made with Slazenger recently - they took a very vintage design from their archive and decided to remake it for a crazy price - this time it was a t-shirt of the English National Team from the 1948 Olimpic games, among other items, more about this here:

Bottom line, the t-shirt was 125 pounds. Which kind of isn't that cheap.
Hence why I was surprised when I found one of those on allegro.pl in a very good condition and bought it for like 10$ since no one was bidding it! The seller clearly had no idea what he was selling, anyway - I will be more then happy to resell it to one of you guys - but otherwise I will keep it for myself, hopefully I will squeeze into an M! The quality is probably top notch, I never had anything made out of sea island cotton but I've heard it's astonishing.
Maybe I'm the only one obsessed with limited edition t-shirts, in that case sorry for this post! Cheers!
