  First the romper, now the safari jacket. My girlfriend is going to be so happy when I retire my Sunspels and Orlebar Browns for this year's Bond inspired fashion!

  I prefer to think of it as a lightweight field jacket.

  Excellent -{. I liked it in the Moore-era flicks. Never understood why it was hated as much as it was. Looking forward to seeing more and more of these jackets in the wild (pun definitely intended).

  I would love to know how to rock one of these. They look great for warm weather walks in nature parks, and I love Roger Moores style. Does anyone have any suggestions or pics on how to make these work? Like what to do or not to do.

  I'd recommend wearing a tan or olive jacket with stone (light beige) chinos and your choice of shirt. To truly wear it the modern way, wear a t-shirt underneath with an un-belted jacket open.

  I knew you'd be in on this JB I was just waiting for you. Don't forget to wear a neckerchief with it!

  I'm seriously tempted, for occasional warm climate use. If it's good enough for Ian Fleming and Roger Moore then it's good enough for me :007) Not forgetting Alan Partridge of course, who adored Roger.

  Knowing his collection, it's probably the SA Seiko one -{
  Excellent photo. On the fear of coming across as misogynistic, it's pussy galore . I know, I know. Bad pun/offensive. Sorry.

  I took precautions. I see how this could be perceived as a tasteless comment and for that, I'm very sorry.
  Back on topic, how about safari sports jackets?

  Very cool David. You've moved effortlessly from Craig to Moore with just the change of shirt and watch :007)
  
  Looking forward to watching the video. I'm sure you kept it clean.. :v The video I mean. No, the shirt, I mean, Ohh.. whatever! )

  You pull off the safari shirt way better then Moore ever did.

  What David is wearing is a bush shirt, rather than the shirt-jacket type of garment that Moore typically wore. That's one reason why there's a different effect with what David is wearing.

  Thanks for the suggestions Matt. I like the idea of olive and chinos, as I'm not a big fan of light colored matching of casual wear.
  
  Chris, when you come visit, after hitting the beach in matching powder blue pants, we will have to go on a Floridian swamp hike in our matching green Safari camp shirts like Moore wore in TMWTGG:
  
  
  
  
  I'll let you rock the neckerchief )

  Looks fantastic! I love the update. A wonderful tribute to Roger Moore, and I can better understand how to use one of these now. Hopefully they stick around in their lineup long enough for me to get some money up for one. -{

  $375 ex. VAT is one of the more reasonable Bond-related jackets in this hobby!
