I've got their Noah in a couple of colours, but isn't it a short sleeve with no buttons? Just having another look at their site. Wouldn't either the Belper, Cotswold or Dorset in midnight be a closer match, possibly?

Smedley's quality is fantastic. Their Noah polo is a good stand-in for the Spectre polo.
Yeah, I said it's a match for the SPECTRE polo, as we'd veered a little off. But they have so many options I was sure they'd have a Thunderball long-sleeve polo match in there as well.

I am just asking where that young rebellian Welshie has gone....
The rebellian who chose green Sub over the established black Sub and now he‘s buying Safari Jackets and a Nautilus
It can‘t get anything more Establishment than this

What does this post have to do with Orlebar Brown?!?!
:v
It’s a photos of Higgins new outfit, he has just pasted Moore’s face onto it to try and Convince Orlebar Brown it’s a Bond item and copy him as a style icon.
From his last photos OB have added this to there collection by Higgins influence!

No doubt to be paired with their new powder blue denim lounge suit
Well this is more than mildly frustrating. The Goldfinger Shorts are going to set you back a pretty penny. These were the ones that I was holding out for. Better start saving, and hope they don't sell out too quickly:

That's over $500 CAD for me. I thought the prices for some items were already ridiculous. This...this is just outrageous. Now they are really just fleecing customers. No thanks. It's actually kind of decreased my affection for OB with this gouging.

Can you guys order from UK site or are you forced to use US version?
For example im outside the UK and this one for me would cost 207 pounds (349 CAD)

Still pricey but a significant saving
Even at the price I wouldn't buy them. That's way too much money for bathing trunks. -{

Well guess could say same thing about ties lol. All madness but is what it is )
Indeed. No Goldfinger connection whatsoever. OB is moving into TF territory with their newly discovered pricing I own the original Setter Sky from Skyfall (original run), worth anything?
The test will be whether customers are willing to pay the sky-high prices. From looking at the stock left of 007 merchandise left on Orlebar Brown's website, my sense is that the company isn't having trouble moving product. If that's true, OB is going to continue their pricing scheme.

Yeah they are selling like mad thats for sure so nothing will change in that regard and I imagine that 007 licence wont come cheap
Will be interesting how limited it is or if they keep doing reruns
Everybody is free to pay (or not pay) for the the items he/she wants (or don't want). Since these items are selling pretty well, OB can ask the prices they do because obviously, there is still an audience that is willing to pay the higher prices. OB has always been a brand with high quality items and prices that match that, the markup on these items seem steep but I assume that EON also takes a cut. Or do people believe that EON just hands out licencing deals like this without expecting anything in return?
All in all, the items sell out quickly for the (steep) prices asked. Are we really blaming a company for making money?

Made in Italy from Zegna merino wool. €135, so about $225 less than the OB.
Also comes in black:

Crikey!
Interesting that they're less 'hugging' than the originals. Preserve's one's modesty I suppose ;%
400 USD for swim shorts??? I have defended some of the pricing of this collection, but this one is indefensible.
I notice material of these setters is slight diff. Appears to have some stretch
