I recommend sizing down if you want the fitted look like DC. I have bought a M and found it quite loose fitting so got a sieze S as well and it was a much better fit.
I went into Rag & Bone in Soho today and they confirmed they had been in discussions with Bond Costume team and supplied a pile of the Classic Henley in white ( which is off-white), same as the current seasons version for filming.
They had no idea that pictures had emerged with DC wearing it, so they were quite excited.
They also supplied some jeans to costume team in blue/grey wash, but no sign of these yet and may well have not be used.

I own a number of R&B Henleys and wear them often. The 100% Cotton version is the way to go! For reference, here are a few pics of my White Henley which I purchased in August or September of 2018 -
As you can see, it hasn't noticeably changed in the last several seasons, and it's been a staple in their collection for as long as I've worn R&B. The 100% Cotton version definitely runs large, so I recommend sizing down one size for a slimmer (not tight) fit. I wear a M shirt in most brands with a 39-40" chest, and all of the R&B Henleys I own are S. With that said, R&B makes an 80%/20% version of their Henleys, and those fit slimmer, so I wear a M in those. But the white slub henley suspected of being the NTTD shirt is 100% Cotton.
the r&b henley from Mr. Porter arrived today and I can share the exact same experience with cederic0011: you get the henley with the white and not the cream-placket and the buttons have a very thin black edge.
I can edit photos & measurements of Size L if someone is interested.

Just my 2 pennies worth on the fit which really surprised me.
I'm a 40 chest so normally take M in Npeal and most makes.
The R&b henley fit in M was fine but not SA look imo as it was fitted across the chest okay but a bit loose at the back and sleeves gathered a bit so looked long as well as long in the body.
I was amazed when I tried on the small and it fit perfectly, chest , arm length , length overall SA look :007)
Never had a S for about 20 years I reckon ) but I glad i ordered it.
So I would say size down or order 2 sizes , 1 your normally wear and 1 size down.
Give it a go to see which you prefer.
I took my normal size as well. My only issue is length. Sleeves are ok, but it is long in the body. Not a huge issue, however, since I view this piece primarily as a base layer.
I bought the Barton Perriera Nortons and think their really cool. I’ve preordered the Barton Perreira Joes because the London scene really cool and I like the look of black sunnies.
Just found out the reissue will have silver inlay 007 inside an arm.
I know some don’t like this branding but I love it
Is it just me or was DC wearing that elusive, unidentified Matera tie yesterday on Colbert?
(IIRC that Matera tie was not ID'd.... or was it?)
Is it just me or his suit looks a bit too tight?
Are you new to Daniel Craig style? For almost a decade he has preferred his suits to be too tight. It's also a problem that suit makers make suits for skinny people without muscle, hence the sausage sleeves.

I thought he only got put in tight suits on screen, did not know that's his personal style also in real life...

Yep. Daniel Craig is the reason why Bond has been wearing his suits too small. He requested the costumer designer to dress him this way.

Paul, "snarky"? Not sure what that is
But theres so many variations to body dynamics vs clithes shaping...
If it fits you it fits you!!!

If this one doesn't fit Luigi should set you up with a cot in the Milan store.
Remade Sp PTS will be the true test
I might need more of a padded cell

Nope. That’s not it.
