    Final day:

    Stop one: Tom Ford. I returned the Greene party tie I picked up due to it being the wrong color. However, I found the London tie! (pics soon)

    Stop two: T&A. Wanted to compare the C Tyrwhitt I picked up a while back to the TND sky blue shirt. It's two shades off but I still love it.

    Stop three: Confidential. Helping a certain reproducer get a few correct measurements on an item.

    Stop four: Ted Baker. No bond ties, but I think they had some pants. Didn't have enough info to spot any matches to CR pants though.

    Stop five: Bond NY Pops concert.

    Stop six: Daniel Craig. I went to go visit him. He's a nice guy but didn't talk much. I got a picture with him though. (Tom Ford shades, Y-3 jacket)

    I have a Yoji Yamamoto suit...from my earlier Bohemian days...he is a designer that goes for unusual detail touches...but then again in a traditional S.McQueen short jacket style...those sleeves just don't look right...but that's what you get when you team him up with Adidas...a bit of head scratching - but did DC wear them folded up...I can't recall but did not think so from the bike shots?

    I have a sneaky hunch DC's were custom. A good tailor can shorten arm length expertly and it doesn't cost that much, especially considering the cost of the Y-3 jacket.
    "How did he die?"
    "Your contact?" "Not well."

    So how tall do you think Mr Craig is?
    I have read over the internet that he ranges from 5'9" to 6 foot.

    The sleeves on the Y-3 jacket are long on all sizes...a friend of mine mentioned it is because it is a cycle jacket style...

    You said that while at T&A: "I also found the 2 shirt color #'s for the TND shirts. The white is 1001 and the sky blue is 1004".

    Did you ask by chance the color #'s for the Bilbao shirt in TWINE?

    I know a lot of people on the thread talked about Brioni ties. The CR Montenegro maybe, the last on Casino Royale maybe... It seems that T&A did most of the ties, but does anyone knows what ties did Brioni actually do?

    redsleigh,
    I notice depending on what line of CT shirts you're buying from, the color of the "sky" will actually vary. For ex their non-iron shirts are a darker shade than their poplin cotton shirts. I think the poplin ones are much closer to the one from TND...
