Regarding the new version of the Finamore x Connolly Shirt: It runs small. I heard a lot about it running small so I bought it one size bigger than usual, 15,5 instead of 15. With Turnbull and Asser I take a 15, I take Size Small for Brunello Cucinelli Shirts, but for the Connolly I luckily sized up to 15,5 and its still tight around the chest and the shoulders. Maybe I have to take it in a little bit in the waist though. But still I recommend to size this up.
In general I think its a great shirt, colour is great, fit is good, the fabric feels very soft, the hand is very nice. Like it a lot.
I received my NPeal trousers yesterday and they are quite superb. As someone else mentioned, they are much heavier than I had expected and really beautifully-made. I took a chance and ordered an XS and while I can get them on and do them up, if I bend over I risk decapitating someone with a projectile button, so I'm exchanging them for for a small. Now I unfortunately I have to patiently wait for the new ones to arrive!
One thing I can't stand about those shoes is the 007 logo without the stylized gun on it. I mean, they're trainers but the logo has always been that one.
Why changing it?

Subtlety. But Adidas have an issue with guns apparently. Their clothing being affiliated with gangs etc etc.
I'm struggling to find the connection between Adidas and NTTD. Maybe when we see the film, it will be evident. Personally, IMHO, the 007 on the clothing looks naff. The trainers are okay and nice box but without the gun portion of the logo it just looks knock-off.
If they're still available when I get up, I may pick up a pair. But I'm not fussed at all and I'm certainly not going to be upset if I miss out on them.
Has anyone found any info on the belt worn in the forest scenes? When he’s wearing the Duster, R&B henley, MA trousers, and the moltons? (Listed the photo but obviously you cant see, just for reference of the part Im talking about.)
This piece took quite an effort and a good amount of luck, but I've finally been able to track it down.
In the scene where Moneypenny enters M's office and they look togheter at the recent explosion in Valdo's lab, she wears that red shirt I previously ID'd and a leather skirt. The skirt is the 'Selrita' black leather pencil skirt by Hugo Boss, most sold out everywhere. You may be able to find some pieces - if it's legit - here (https://www.aboutyou.it/p/boss/gonna-selrita-7026490). Distinctive features are the high waist, sewing all along the front, side pleats and a zip closure barely visible in the following pictures.
Thank you! I was curious because all I could seem to find was confirmed they provided a belt for the navy jacket, beige chords outfit but i know he wore brown shoes with both outfits yet the belt looks more black so wasnt positive

I went half a size up with the original run shirt also
OB added the white and grey melange OB-T to their 007-Collection

A shame; I think I got it for $65 a few months ago.

Both were priced at $95 through their recent sale. I picked up a couple of other color OB-Ts for $65 and $55.
It's somewhat surprising they're not charging more now that these two are Bond certified!
007 range from adidas

Do we actually know if Adidas appear in the film anywhere?
The Safin shoes are smart, the rest can get in the sea.
Not that I am aware.
How is this a thing?? I'm so confused...

It is weird. Lego/Playmobil uses the logo with the gun, so I guess its not about the target consumer's age.
Gangbangers don’t drive or even use Playmobil stuff, so they haven’t got any negative press associated with guns. Yet.
The Daily Mail will pick up on it in 3-4 months time and protest about it 😂
Which “Safin shoes” do you mean, Sir.
Have the sneakers been identified?
Just a heads up, 15% off the Barbour Covert if you buy it through the End app and use the code APP15

I don’t think there is one. Just a pure generic licensing deal I reckon!
Maybe EON are milking the brand more then normal to make some return back after the delays and Covid which will no doubt impact the box office still.
It certainly feels like more merchandise then the norm this time round!
My mistake - it was the blue haze that was marked down.

I mean in the Adidas collection, there’s a Safin Ultraboost which is a bit more subtle than the 007 logo stuff
I think this belt has been confirmed by Massimo Alba:
