I came across this today.
Any ideas about this jacket? It’s copyrighted to EON and Casino Royale.
Looks interesting!

Looks like a motorcycle jacket to me. I'd start looking at the usual suspects first. Belstaff most likely is my guess.
I did a quick search of Belstaff jackets from 2005 when CR would have been filmed, and to me it looks like it may be a modified Belstaff Hero jacket. The same one that Tom Cruise wore in War of the Worlds.

Think it was Belstaff or Dunhill
Belstaff if I remember.
Brilliant research !
He looks pretty good in it. Wish there were more reference pictures .
Perhaps this was considered for the Miami scenes ?
Sure ive see it in colour
From my very vague memory I think it's a shot of Craig doing some gun training before shooting, so it's just his own jacket. Might be wrong though.
Slightly nicer version here:
It is Craig’s own jacket. I think this was one of his first training sets for CR, there are shots of him learning basic sidearm etiquette and shooting skills with suppressed Browning, P99 and PPK.
Brilliant! Great detective work.
I think there might be pictures of this in the Casino Royale Bond On Set book, showing Daniel Craig at a gun range with different guns.

I don’t think it’s the same one but it looks similar in design with the red racing stripe as the Belstaff Christian Bale wore on his motorcycle in The Dark Knight.
Or you can just right-click on the original image, select 'copy image address' and paste it in here, and the forum automatically turns it into a picture 😊
Thank you for finding these pictures !
I bought this Norton jacket a couple of years back. I think there was one with the red stripe available at the time as well.
