    Here is our initial prototype:

    A few notes:

    The color is a little too purple, so we'll be revising to a more navy blue.
    The contrast stitching that you're seeing is only for the prototype (the final will be a matching color).
    The fabric is a cotton/poly blend, so it has a little more sheen than pure cotton, mimicking the blend of the TF.
    The fabric is a little more fine (tighter weave) than the TF.

    We'll be doing another prototype to finalize the color, so will keep you all posted.

    Look forward to it! Thank you.

    Ps will you be doing the Spectre ties? I'm thinking of the black 'Rome' tie in particular? :D

    We're definitely doing the brown knit tie... could look into doing the black one as well if there is some good info available on it.

    We're working on our prototype for a run of navy blue polo shirts based on the TF one. Having handled one of these in person, I can honestly say we won't be able to copy all the details. I don't know if it's worth $900+ but it's definitely got some really unique details that cannot be copied with out GREAT expense.

    So, we're going to try and get the main points (v-neck opening, collar size/shape, wide waistband, etc) as well as a few extra details to mimic the unique seam weave, etc of the original. We're going to use a cotton blend to get a little more sheen than our standard 100% cotton.

    I'm hoping to have a sample done within two or three weeks. Right now, the price point should be in the range of our other ready-made t-shirts, so around $50 (shipped).

    Kind regards,
    Magnoli


    I'm in! :007)

    Looks very cool
    It's just what we needed as it is hard to find a well made replica or copy of the shirt. :007)

    I am eagerly awaiting an update. I have a few items on your shop i'm holding out on until this is released.

    When I first saw it in the movie, I thought it was the Sunspel one which coincidentally was what I was wearing while watching it.

    Looking forward to this homage one because the price it's going for on the original TF one is not worth it, not for a polo shirt.

    Hey Magnoli, i noticed in your site their is no option to choose size, so do we just request size in the comments section? Sizes are in INCHES correct?
    and shipping takes 2-4weeks does it?
    Thanks

    Looks great but sadly the XL is too small on me. My shoulders are 20.75" :#

    These ready made sizes seems more tailored for Asian body types.

    Which in no way am I trying to be or sound racist in case anyone thinks that. I've ordered from Asian manufacturers before and their sizes usually run at least 1-2 times smaller than a North American fit does.

    Looks great order placed.
    It was either that.....or the priesthood

    I forgot to put the drop-down size menu... all fixed!

    As for sizing, these are stretchy, and the shoulder seam is designed to sit atop the shoulder, not at the tip. I have a 41" chest and 18.5" shoulders, but wear the medium (which is technically 1" smaller in the chest and 1" narrower in the shoulders).

    I put the size I wanted in comments, this OK?

    How is the sizing? Snug? I believe I'm bigger than the XL

    Can you pls tell us what size is the model wearing and his body measurements to get a feel of the sizing/fit?
  • MFisherMFisher Posts: 745MI6 Agent
    Just ordered :)
  • TeenageBondTeenageBond London, UKPosts: 211MI6 Agent
    We could do the Morocco Trousers in a pure cotton, no problem at all. Price would be $195 (shipped).

    If anybody gets these, please post pics. :)

    Model has 41" chest and is wearing the medium.

    Model has 41" chest and is wearing the medium.

    Thanks for that, should I get a small then? I am a 38/48 in Tom Ford, I am usually a medium in most brands, like TF, Sunspel etc. Do these polos run bigger than normal cuts?
  • Indy MagnoliIndy Magnoli Somewhere in the PacificPosts: 419MI6 Agent
    Our medium is similar to a TF 50, so yeah, maybe go with the small.
