Hi All - I’ve been searching eBay high and dry for an authentic screen accurate Tom Ford Knitted Sleeve Bomber jacket. I’ve come across a lot shady characters along the way listing questionably authentic garments. That said, I bought one of the Royale Film replicas of the jacket, but I still feel like I am wearing a knock off when the item is on. The quality in my opinion is still very questionable compared to the actual garment. If anyone has this item, can prove authenticity of their purchase, and it’s a size Large (Italian 54 I believe), please message me!
I am aware of the current listing for this exact item on eBay, but initial conversation with the individual selling the item seems shady and the price being asked is well north of the original $1900 retail price w/ no receipt, etc.
Thanks!

I saw your post and i wanted to address a few things for you regarding the Tom Ford Solden jacket that you're trying to buy off of eBay. The Solden jacket worn in the film and the version sold are not "screen accurate" as there were more ribs in the jacket and the zipper openings were longer. I wouldn't really call the Royale Filmwear jacket a knockoff especially when the Solden jacket style is not unique to Tom Ford (Moncler and Canada Goose make a similiar style jacket) and it was designed to be affordable! I know you say the quality is questionable but have you actually compared the Royale Filmwear version to the Tom Ford one because if you havent you may be surprised? Here is are 2 videos by The Bond Experience talking about the Solden jacket

I took a look at one on eBay and i assume you mean this listing? https://www.ebay.com/itm/TOM-FORD-Blue-James-Bond-Spectre-Quilted-Shell-Down-Bomber-Jacket-54-Euro-Large/133398504357?hash=item1f0f2ba3a5:g:0pgAAOSw8nFeqiht
The asking price of $2295/BO is around what i paid for mine (that included taxes/duties) from a member on the forum. I purchased a 54 back in 2017 and i paid about $1400 buying it from Mr. Porter with 30% off list so $1900 seems about right. If its the auction i linked to i would assume the seller bought all those jackets at the outlet and doesn't have a individual receipt for each item BUT he does have the tags! Hopefully you're able to find one but the longer you wait the harder it's going to be to get one!
