My Goodhreads cotton sweater arrived today and I'm thrilled, I will be sending back the wool bully tomorrrow, the cotton looks very similar, fits better (I got an M in the cotton sweater and it fits perfect, the large in the bully was too tight) and the cotton is going to be so much more wearable than the heavy duty wool. I hope it wears well!
I might be tempted by one of these - would you mind sharing your height/chest/waist size so I can judge what size to get (I’m UK based so returning the wrong size would be a pain). I’m 5’8”, 39” chest, 30” waist .. Thanks
Did Brunello confirm mate? Buttons look blue to me on set
BC confirmed this is their shirt and Blair's picture above is the right one: its code is ML6940038 Colour code C008. They have the same shirt ail year, but with different buttons for the seasons, so SS19 was mother of pearl buttons (as used in film), whilst the current version on their website has horn buttons (though it currently seems to have been removed). The picture was still the previous seasons, but the written description said it had "mother of horn" buttons which perhaps helps to explain what you get for your £360! Having pointed this descriptive faux-pas out to them, I think they may now be changing the photo and descriptiont!
The burgundy tie with alternating colour polka dots (or dots anyway), they have confirmed is not theirs, so the search for that is still on. So possibly part of a TF tie release for the film...
It is Brunello Cucinelli, It is similar to the one on their website, but belongs to summer collection and in the stores now they have winter only. If you can wait till next week, my contact is going to give me the right reference number for the product code for when it's released. Hold tight for the moment, but it is definitely Cucinelli, my friend.
For those of you who have the RGT Supply Jacket. Is the sizing patch/tag on the upper back of the inside of the jacket supposed to only be connected at the top? I bought mine used off ebay and it does seem very barely worn but I'm trying to figure out just how close to new it is. It was only $175 plus shipping so I don't need it to be pristine but I'm hoping it's fairly untouched.
I will be doing a frugal Bond review on this 100% cotton version that I just received....James Bond Classified discovered it and I have to say I am impressed with the quality. And no itchiness! And did I mention it's $26 on Amazon?!? You need to size down as these run large...so I ordered a medium.
have found an accurate and 135 pounds cheaper Drake's-Alternative, the Astorflex Dukeflex, they produce them in the exact same three colors. Try to find the difference, as if Drake's just put their Logo on them, it seems that the italien brand Astorflex is the origin-producer
this Shop delivers into middle/north eu countries but maybe you are able to find an online-shop which sells this shoe in your country: http://www.astorflex.it/?page_id=1866

Can`t speak for the shoes mentioned above but the shop is 100% trustworthy. Ordered C&J shoes with them, had to return them unfortunately. Refund came immediately. Super fast delivery and refund. I definitely recommend that shop!

Small sounds right, I got a medium, 6'0", 200 lbs, 34 waist, 46 chest and it fits really well, the sleeves could be just a tad longer but I'm just wearing them without flipping the ribbed cuffs and it seems, might consider a black one after Christmas

Very close to the SA model!

I wouldn't be surprised if Astorflex private labels for Drake's. They also do some exclusive boots for Huckberry. FWIW, I have a pair of Astorflex suede chelsea boots and they're awesome for the money. Very well made and super comfortable.

Reviews give it three and a half stars. I have a XL and XLL coming next week. With free returns I can test out some sizing and see if I even like the idea of a waxed canvas jacket before getting a Rouge Territory Supply Jacket.
The most memorable Amazon review has pictures of the jacket standing on its own. ) ) )
I'm tempted to grab one, but being 6'2" 220 lbs I'm afraid the XXL isn't going to work due to feedback that they run beyond small - looking forward to your report after receiving order.
Hey guys would like some input of the sizing for the military sweater on Amazon, if they say waist in inches does that i mean i measure by taking measuring tape and wrap it around my waist ?
im like 168cm, 77kgs

Have only found the Dukeflex at Huckerby's
But the darkest they do is lighter brown
I have an email in to the brand ceo so will see what cab be uncovered

Amazing find I just wish there was a way to buy them and get them to the UK! I believe they are blocked as there must be an arrangement with Drakes in UK to prevent them being sold here

I emailed Huckberry as well asking them to check with their buyers for the dark brown.
I received the size XL Maden from Amazon today. Wonders of wonders. It fits. )
I am usually a size L, or a UK 42/EU 52. I am 6'5" (mostly in the legs), 200 lbs, 41 inch chest, 18.5 inch shoulders, and 26 inch arms from shoulder to wrist. As you can see it fits pretty well. Length is also pretty good.
The color looks darker than the RGT Supply Jacket. The fabric and care tag is only in Chinese. However, for $22 plus sales tax I can't complain. This jacket all in is less than the sales tax on the Rogue Territory.
The fabric is stiff. It will take some wear to loosen it up. The quality appears to be pretty good. It seems better made than some $200 jackets I've had.
If anyone wants the measurements to this jacket or to the XXL when it arrives let me know. I will be returning the XXL.

Definitely would like to know the measurement from pit to pit on the XXL please. Just about every jacket I own is XL & would appreciate your feedback. Usually 23 inches or more from pit to pit fits me.
Thanks in advance

I’ve been jumping through the thread, maybe I missed it, but has there been a positive id on Bond’s snowboard/ski pants in the character poster/ tactical trailer scenes? My eyes are permanently crossed from scrolling through sites trying to find a match

No confirmation yet Ray, I'm searching too and still perplexed, the tops look like ski pants or motorcycle pants, but the bottoms on ski pants would be layered and bellowed to fit over ski boots, and I think motorcycle pants would too, but this screen grab I got from the trailer (Bond kneeling down in front of Safin, NOT the guard!!) shows he has bloused his trousers at the ankle, displaying a black tactical magnum type boot (could be C&J or any black combat high leg type boot to be fair). You would only be able to do this with massive tailoring on ski pants, which is certainly possible by wardrobe.
DC's pants here look mega skinny in the leg, as he likes it
Anyway, we need more images.. my 5.11s don't work with this outfit!!

Thanks for the heads-up - just ordered & dropped down a size
James Perse does a 2 button Henley in white (silver white I think). I can’t post a picture for some reason and the buttons aren’t right...

here is an unboxing-video of them even the box and the paper seems to be the same:

Very close to the SA model!
Can you say at the moment if the summer release will have the SA blue buttons?

Definitely too big on me since it's too stiff to drape.
The dimensions are:
Chest: 23 inches pit to pit
Shoulders: 20 inches back shoulder seam to seam
Arm: 26 inches outer arm from shoulder seam to end of cuff
Back length: 26 inch back from base of collar to end of hem
Waist: 21 inches across the bottom.
Thanks I just saw that - hardly any difference between the two - that's strange.
Especially the pit to pit.
Thanks again
