Yes me to-would like to know everything about that jacket,but moncler never responded!
Harrods is no worth to ask! )
Holden what chest measure you have?
Thanks
Crikey! Does it have an official code or is it the same as what Harrods gives (was not sure if that code is Harrods own code or Monclers)
In my search to find another supplier (no luck except a dodgy HK scam site) I came across one on eBay from Xmas time. It sold for £77 (seller said it was too small I think)

Well, I can get it on and zip it up, if I wear nothing but a t-shirt/vest, but it's still a bit tight around the body and tight around the neck, if zipped up fully.
Some quick measurements from mine:
Chest seam to seam: 20"
Waist: 17"
Back length: 23"
In those ebay pictures,looks big. But from measurements so short.
Wonder,if he bought it around Xmas,why he didn't send it back or exchange,but sells it on eBay for £77.
If it's a harrods exclusive it won't be the one I wouldn't think, moncler have said contact there corporate site, which I am in the process of doing, but from what people are saying I think I would probably need a Large 40 possible and Extra Large 42.

Looks like my one will be going back to Harrods too
I know this sounds daft, but getting a bad feeling about Spectre, just hope the film works out better for us all...

You really don't like the wardrobe that much? I'm just hoping the suits are tailored better than in Skyfall.
Its not the wardrobe, sure it will be ok, and the pieces so far will grow on me when on screen... Just "feels" very secret in comparison to SF, QS AND CR. And the bits that were ID'd were relatively attainable...
So far, and agreed its early days, feels more unattainable and rare items.... Just me being a defeatist )
One good thing about the Montcler is that it will be dead easy for inexpensive replicas to be made. Hardly a piece requiring master craftsmanship.
I popped in a Moncler shop on Monday and had a look at the stuff and wasn't blown away in general, especially when you consider the prices. When you look at Canada Goose, Arcteryx or even someone like North Face, you immediately know that their items will keep you warm and dry. Canada Goose has become a designer label worn for fashion as much - or more - than for practicality, but it really is very practical and does the job that it was originally intended to do before it became 'in'. Montcler seems to be first and foremost a fashion label and their items - and their prices - suggest to me that their first aim is to look good and their products are focused more on the apres skier than the skier.
I wouldn't count on ANY sure thing brand identifiers yet. They will come, but I think its early days to be upset about Moncler etc until there is final proof. Just my .02....

Norcha - I'm about a 40" chest.
Hmm,I am 39" in chest.
But I"m 6ft so might be very short on me! Ideally my 40r would be spot on! Well done Harrods!
How's quality? Where is it made-Romania,Bulgaria? And you decided to send it back?

Filming practically just started! Give it a little time. I don't think we knew much about the Skyfall clothes when filming had just started either.
I have spoken to a company this week and there will be a number of there items in spectre and the prices are expensive but attainable, Not Tom Ford Expensive.
I can't say anymore at the moment but will release details as soon as allowed.

Pics of the Moncler. Pics are taken under artificial light, with flash. The colour in reality, is a dark navy/midnight, with dark brown leather trim.
I have to say that, whilst it has some nice details, it's the most overpriced 'potential' Bond outerwear of recent times. Considering this is three quarters of the current price of the TF QoS, cardigan, there is no comparison - TF are overpriced, but you can appreciate the quality, at least.

You guys are on it. I hope The Mantis puts up a video with some of this stuff. Or someone sets up a site with a list without set pictures. I'm trying to avoid all spoilers.

Nabbed the pics from eBay
What size it was?
The closest Moncler alternative I found was this one - looks similar but a bit more heavy. Has a proper collar though so I guess unlikely to be SA

Seller says Medium.
Surprise surprise the seller bought it from Harrods!!
Some quick measurements from mine:
Chest seam to seam: 20"
Waist: 17"
Back length: 23"
Norcha - I'm about a 40" chest.
So might be Harrods exclusive.
Wonder,if he bought it around Xmas,why he didn't send it back or exchange,but sells it on eBay for £77.
Seems to be the case!! Not a good start - this is the cheaper "obtainable" stuff that is not Tom Ford lol
I guess always a chance its not Moncler but it looks 99% like the jacket unfortunately

Looks like my one will be going back to Harrods too

True, the voice of reason !!! -{

Still Moncler just a different style or season and just over half the price of the one in Harrods.
