at the Leica gallery exhibition you can really see the pattern detail in the blue PoW suit 'mystery' (is it still a mystery?) tie. Exhibition itself well worth seeing.
In the Circle with the '007', can see what looks like the Matera jacket but on the hanger next there's a shirt that looks like a possible 'Inspired by Finnanore' shirt?
Anyone know if Vuarnet is going to come out with the Edge 1613's in the correct color? It seems like a lost opportunity to them if not, especially since they are promoting the style as "Daniel Craig's Choice"
does someone has more information regarding the combat-pants suspenders? does n.peal release them? I asked them for it and they had no clue of what I'm talking about
here is a better picture of the Danners, they confirmed that these a indeed the Tanicus. Member Tennyson had identified them already in 2019
Cheers Noi, I reckon the wardrobe department did the black dye and paint job on some of the green or coyote ones and Danner have just released these because of our interest/ demand… good to see in the black though.. they’ll probably charge more too!!
To those who already pulled the trigger on the Palladium boots, how did you find their sizing compares with other brands?
Which size would be right for me? I wear US 11 in Converse, US 12 in Nike, US 12 in Sperry, US 12 New Balance, UK 10 in Loakes Trappers, UK 10 Drake's Crosby.
I managed to snag a pair in size 11 but I'm pretty sure they'll be too small.
I'm looking for a pair in US 12. If there's anyone out there with a pair to sell or trade for a size down, please send me a pm.
Finally been able to track down Valdo's glasses as seen in the character poster. It's a pair of Ray Ban RB6448 2501 51-21 ("Occhiali da vista Ray-Ban HEXAGONAL OPTICS RB6448 Nero - Metallo - 0RX6448250948 | Ray-Ban® Italia" https://www.ray-ban.com/italy/occhiali-da-vista/RX6448%20UNISEX%20hexagonal%20optics-argento/8056597124508).
some items from the Connolly x 007 were launched today, among other things the Connolly x Finamore Linen Shirt seems to be back in stock, its hard to tell if this is a "inspired by" shirt or the sa fabric:
No size chart, per se. The sizes given are metric, so the 41 is a 16 inch neck, the 42 a 16.5 inch, etc. However it is reportedly a very slim fitting shirt, so you may wish to size up.
@Commandant I'll share here what I posted about the trousers in another thread for @Cheverian. I got into N.Peal NYC on Sunday and was able to try them on. Here's a pic of me in the medium (the sales ladies were a little bored and made me try them on with the sweater):
For reference, I'm 5'9", 175 lbs, and have 29" inseam and 32/33 waist in most brands.
From the other post (combined with some notes I shared with Jay on Instagram):
The pants were ... interesting. The detailing was very cool. And I will say I liked them a lot as a concept. But I could never see myself wearing them. The fit is also a little strange. They come in small, medium, etc. instead of numeric waist sizes. I'm a 32/33 waist in most pants and the small was just too snug to be comfortable. The cotton fabric is a heavier weight and has no stretch. That, combined with all the pockets, buttons, zippers, etc. made them feel pretty binding (I'll add that they might feel better once the fabric softens up, but I wouldn't expect them to stretch much with wear; fabric is heavier than I expected). And they're very slim through the leg. So even though the inseam in the small was good for me, everything just felt a little too tight.
When I went up to the medium, the fit was more comfortable in the waist and hips (and the fabric tab adjusters help). But then I got this weird fit where they were baggy through the thighs but super tapered below the knee, so they almost looked like jodhpurs. And the inseam was too long so there was a lot of stacking and that made the problem worse. Of course, because of the zippers and snap buttons at the cuffs, they'd be next to impossible to hem shorter.
The sales associate didn't know anything about the suspenders when I asked. But they are obviously on sale now.
General thoughts: very cool design and nice details (although that unfinished back seam is a bit of a mess). Seriously, all the little extras they've built into them around the pockets, waist and cuffs are really fun. But they're just not made for my body. If you're a 32 to 34 waist and over 5'11" I think the mediums would fit you well and look good since your inseam would be long enough to allow the slim fit legs and tight cuffs to taper properly without all the stacking I got. Also, even though the cuffs are narrow, with the heavy zipper plus the tab with snap button closure they are bulky. So I'm not sure how comfortable they'd be tucked into boots.
Hope that helps!
Edit to add: @Cheverian I haven't seen them on the U.S. site either.

My god, you have eagle eyes … 🦅
It's always a good point where to start😂

Connolly's window this morning - wasn't open to pop in - looks like collection maybe includes their interpretation of the Matera outfit.
Warning: Analysing too much here.

I believe the suspenders for the combat trousers are also offered by N Peal.. That was brought up after the earlier review...
£245 without susp or £295 with from memory
1. CR. 2. TSWLM. 3. LTK. 4. GF. 5. SF.

nice the Boots has been identified as Palladiums, I wonder if there will be a re-release of this model
Does someone has a direct contact to Maison Margiela. Seem not to answer emails
That's interesting that the Palladium boots turned out to be the sunrise color. I remember thinking if I were picking out
the wardrobe, I would pick that color as I thought it looked the best. I feel sorry for the guys on here that bought
4 or 5 versions of that boot in all colors except for that one. I don't even think that one was on the list of possibilities
due to how dark the screen shots looked. Further proof you can't trust colors on a movie screen due to filters and
actual items may look quite different in real life. I have 3 of the screen accurate boots in 3 different sizes. But bear in
mind, I did not purchase them off of Palladiums website with the current clearance price tag (that would have been nice)
Unfortunately, I paid quite a bit more. I wasn't sure how they would fit so I have US 10, US 10.5, US 11.
I haven't listed them for sale yet. But you can message me if interested.
How do they fit? A lot of reviews say they are rather narrow at the toe. Also, how's the length? True to size?
Thanks.

It's silver wired with slightly exagonal shape.
Mattia strikes again!
Cin cin, amico!

So much for the limited run Connolly x Finamore shirt I purchased last winter!
Actually, I'm glad others can pick one up.
I cant seem to find a size chart on their page. Am I missing it?
The NTTD commando trousers are now available on N Peal's internet site.
Based on the size chart, they are very short.
I have watched David's review and they do not look too short on him.
Does someone know if N Peal did a mistake on the size chart?
No size chart, per se. The sizes given are metric, so the 41 is a 16 inch neck, the 42 a 16.5 inch, etc. However it is reportedly a very slim fitting shirt, so you may wish to size up.
I'm not seeing the trousers on the US site. Do you have a link to the page, Greg?
