Am I the only one who finds the constant nods to previous bond outfits/ Steve McQueen tiresome and lacking imagination?
Also, DC's pout and photo-shopped face looks absolutely ridiculous....

Agreed with the photoshop comment, he looks like Zoolander. However in regards to the McQueen comment, love the style, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
There is a definite nod to Steve McQueen in most of DCs styles, but that's no bad thing - it's a good look.
The outfit in the poster is a great mix of Bullit and LALD (Roger Moore's best outfit during his tenure was that black polo, followed by the RN battledress jacket)
These are regular polo necks. Daniel Craig is wearing a mock polo neck.
A mock turtle neck - woven from the shell of a mock turtle?

I'm personally loving the teaser poster.
Looks far more darker and closer to Fleming's image of Bond.
felt the skyfall one was forcing bond , this one is back to his best.
Craig looks mean , focussed and dangerous.
already pre ordered the jumper ajb007/bond

Pre ordered in Charcoal Grey. Really nice jumper , a little steep in price for a turtle neck but the colour quality and design differs it from any other turtle neck I've seen. I'm a fan of a turtle neck anyway. Before any bond connection I've already got 4 roll necks inspired by McQueen in which I am a huge fan!! Excited to receive the NPeal although I also love those trousers however as they will most likely end up being the Tom Fords mentioned I'll end up sourcing an alternative to the trousers which will most likely be fairly easy really.
Hmm the pattern on those trousers are pretty defined
But they do look like the trousers on the Tom Ford website. It looks like a tick pattern. "Irregular" may be describing the individual houndstooth shape and not the pattern overall.
Im gonna wait till im in London so I can get a proper fit before I pull the trigger on this one.
My Skyfall jumper is perfect fit, this one is more fitted so I sized up (in stock) and will see what happens, hopefully get it next week
What size are you? How does the Skyfall jumper fit? I haven't gotten anything from N Peal yet and I am a 38 chest. Looking at the size guide I would take a small but maybe a medium since this mock turtleneck is fitted?
You're probably right. The Tom Ford trousers look like they have a smaller pattern. From the teaser poster, the trousers look to have a classic tick pattern, which I can't see any reason to describe in any other way. Hopefully the true trousers will surface.
