Anyone care to guess which shoes Bond wears with the outfit from the teaser poster? I think the Crockett & Jones Tetbury chukka boots, from Skyfall, would be a good choice, but feel that they might want to use a newer design, such as the monk strap boots we've already seen with the black coat. These would look okay too, in my opinion, and more appropriate with the jumper than with the formal coat.
One thing we know Bond wears black socks!
I don't know. The socks look like they could be deep navy to me

I think ggl007 is right on the LRC2.. Considering Aresenal Firearms is already doing the sidearm for Hinx.. Already a link to them doing unique weaponary for the film... You can tell in the pics that the weapon has a side folding stock like the LRC2..
Just a note of caution......I once bought a merino crew neck sweater from these guys (in a teal/Skyfall colour); quality was pretty poor as it hasn't worn or lasted well. It seems not all merino is created equal....

Strange...everything I've had from them has been fine...six month no quibble return policy too !

Everything else I've had from them was fine also - just the jumper that wasn't so good. Just my opinion of course. (And no idea where the receipt is to take it back)

Ah right, thanks...was thinking of buying one from them...
Thanks to Marketto007. Pics from today. DC and Mendes looking over the Zocalo in Mexico City. Anyone have an idea on the bomber style jacket Craig is wearing? I first thought of one that Billy Reid makes but it is not it by any means.

Carhartt Cap, and some kind of 'fashion' brand flight jacket, or Bomber Jacket as they are called in the UK - possible Lambretta clothing... they do paisley type linings in theirs... but the zip pull on the sleeve is different to most Lambretta.
Maybe even a cheap one that DC picked up from a London Market... you can get these all over the Carnaby Street area for £40 or so
So Bond is savvy enough to take a concealable and compact weapon ( a handgun) and turn it into cumbersome carbine with a conversion kit? Let me make a prediction, they're going to have it go full auto also 8-)

I dont think the new model is the Snowdon's. David Zaritsky said we should have confirmation on the new model by April. I picked up the Wayfarers- those are pretty similar, pretty decent model.
Yes, been told a new model/edition is coming out...
David - firstly, great job on The Bond Experience videos. They are absolutely fantastic and provide such a fascinating insight into the world of Bond.
Secondly, as we are on the topic, now might be the ideal time for a special "Tom Ford" Bond Experience video providing some detail around the Tom Ford items in Quantum, Skyfall and maybe even Spectre. It's certainly long overdue and would be a fantastic follow up to "The Quantum Suiting" and "The Skyfall Tuxedo" - both excellent videos in their own right.
Finally as I notice you are exploring some of the "brands of bond" - I would like to see some of "The Bond Experience" expertise run over both Omega and Church's shoes. Both brands have history even before the Daniel Craig films so I'm sure they would make great viewing as well.
Either way - keep up the great work. We love watching your material all the way over here in London as well. It's a great reference point for Bond fans all over the world.

same colour, patterned lining but zip detail is not the same (although that may be a production/sample thing)
To me that is pretty spot on either way!
Yes, good find!
