Although a mysterious CR item I'm impressed how much interest this has generated since simply a L/S polo!

With Davids pics and Tintins costume card it sounds like this one will be nailed! -{

I too have tried to find out who made this long sleeve polo shirt and then I discovered it had a covered placket.

I stopped looking at polo shirts. I think it is a rugby shirt.

UNCLE27

I'm definitely in for one or two of those!!

I'm interested

Here the costume card with the cotton we're planning on using:



The color tone (hue) is spot on, just a hair lighter than the original, so I'm pretty happy.

I had no idea that the actual color was leaning that close to a teal. It reads as almost a dark royal blue in the movie.

Indy Magnoli

I think the color tone of the photo is a little off, but it does have a little teal tinge to it.

just looking at the image of DC next to the actual fabrics, the magic of the screen makes his clothing colours look very different to the real ones.

I think your pretty spot on there Indy

Professor Dent

Definitely in!

DB6

Interested too....

Realistically, probably not until after New Year's.

Just to take the mystery out of this, I have 12 VERY hi res pictures that clearly show the shoulder, collar, buttons, hem, sleeves, cuff, back etc...I have researched this shirt for awhile so I have accumulated some great shots. Happy to share with Indy to make the most accurate representation....even have a costume swatch Image of the original shirt. And this is the shirt he is discussing just so there is no question:

I know you and others here have contacts in the industry so I was wondering were you ever able to find out who made the shirt or is it still a mystery?

Looking good and looking forward to availability in the new year

One of the biggest mysteries in the whole franchise I'm afraid... And as years go by it will be more and more difficult to identify the real deal. Along with the funnel neck cardigan from the opening scene I think CR has the highest amount of unidentified items out of all Craig's movies, we have no idea who made his beige chinos worn with the Sunspel polo (Ted Baker being a suspect but the model was never confirmed), the blue chinos worn with that long sleeve polo, 90% of the opening scene outfit is a mystery, the whole clinic outfit is one big question mark... Ugh.

Looking forward to this polo. Very nice informal look to it.

The hidden button placard is quite interesting. Differentiates it from my other long sleeved polos.

Yeah I think Casino Royale has the most unidentified pieces, and 10 years later I don't think its going to get any easier to find them.

Wow Indy, that picture gives a much better idea of colour than the last one... seems a bit bleached in the light - looks damn fine, although (to my very untrained eye) are the buttons on the SA one larger, and more white rather than pearl/translucent? No doubt the finished model will be spot on...

Im only a couple of hours away in Hawkes Bay if you want a second opinion

Tintin

Hi Indy, the prototype looks great. But one note or question: Is it possible to make the top of the concealed button placket more screen accurate (rounded instead of pointed)? Or would this make the polo shirt disproportionately expensive?

Skyfallofpies2016

Yes please! Definitely interested

Indy Magnoli

Not sure if the original buttons were solid white or pearly, hard to say. Definitely sewn on with darker thread though, so we'll be changing that.

And yes, we'll be revising the collar stand area as well and lengthening the front placket by about 1". Here is the prototype being worn:



We'll be making one more prototype to verify all details before starting full production...
