I have enjoyed the sneak peeks you lucky Bond “influencers” have given us of N.Peal’s new line of Bond inspired knitwear. Looks cool! Looks expensive! I expect these pieces will make the Orlebar Brown stuff seem cheap by comparison. I know you guys are all embargoed. But how about a few hints?

As far as pricing, I would say its right on par with the rest of their clothing.

From the peeks on Instagram, looks as if N. Peal is picking up the ball set in play by OB, but for the colder weather looks. You can sign up for updates on N. Peal (they've even got a countdown clock a la OB) - https://www.npeal.com/us/007-sign-up?_$ja=tsid:63865|kw:10|cgn:DruclYqPxnE&utm_source=Linkshare&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=Affiliate&siteID=DruclYqPxnE-uMdSEp.cYUNancjvW4.QAQ
And Matt has a nice preview up on his site of one ensemble that's taken some creative licence with an iconic Bond look: https://www.bondsuits.com/the-n-peal-cashmere-goldfinger-jacket-waistcoat-and-tie/
People who haven’t found anything yet in NTTD to spend their $$$ on needn’t have worried. If you’re into Bond, there will always be something lavish to spend your money on.

Presume this wont be so ltd like OB?
That's TLD, what Bond wears under the leather jacket. The FYEO jumper is lighter and more marled with a slightly higher collar.
Thanks Matt!
Will watch DZs blog on the way home -{
The only disappointment for me was that the OHMSS light brown cardigan he wears at Piz Gloria is not featured, that is something I have been coveting for some time. I can only hope a future release will include this, and hopefully the high collar button cardigan DC wears in the CR pre-title sequence.
Saying that kudos to NPeal for producing such a wonderful collection

I was expecting that one too. I think they didn't include it because the gingham shirt plays a prominent role in that outfit when paired with the cardigan. They chose to replicate outfits that can be dominated on top by knitwear. The two OHMSS outfits they chose to replicate have only knitwear on the top half of the body. The same goes for all the other outfits they replicated, except the GF suit outfit that has a prominent shirt. But the shirt is only one of four pieces worn on the top half of the body.
I like a lot of items but realistically the Goldfinger polo/v neck set is something I could wear often, both together and as separate pieces. I couldn't justify the near $500 price tag that Orlebar Brown was charging. The faux mother of pearl buttons was the definition of taking the piss. At that price tag it should be made of the highest quality materials, with 0 shortcuts taken. I'm sure that this set will cost more but these pieces are without a doubt higher quality.
Honestly, I'd probably seriously consider other pieces if I was in a colder climate. That orange turtleneck is surprisingly tempting but the cost per wear for me would be insane.

TBC obviously.
Don't get me wrong, it's nice of them to do this, but I tend to dislike "franchiise-branded" items, even in a subtle manner.
That being said, I'll keep looking and will be happy to change my mind if something does interest me. Hopefully one of the two items I named MAY be made?
