If I'm not mistaken, it's a thing Tom Ford uses as he's very fond of them in his dinner suits. Craig had them both on his QOS dinner suit.
What’s more, they top them off with the most ugly accessory - the tie bar !
Why on Earth they insist on dressing him like a middle manager or an extra from ‘The Only Way Is Essex’ is developing into one of the great mysteries of our time.
Surely to God they could have got him a decent tailor - PussyNoMore’s man at A&S would have seen him right.
Happily, the casual wardrobe looks more interesting and the suit he is wearing on the motorcycle may hold promise but The Pussy fears we may be in for another string of Ford styling faux pas.

wow! I've got to get a pair of those. I just hope Adidas don't do something daft like a limited edition with only a limited pair available, so the chances of buying them are zero, other than forking out a grand on ebay for a pair.
Surely no self respecting Bond aficionado would be seen stiff wearing a pair of plimsolls with 007 on them ?
Salutations,

Have to say they are pretty smart looking! :-bd

I would agree. I’m in a suit every day and Craig's Bond is certainly an influence.
I wish Bond would go back to a Rolex though. Omega is far too cheap and mainstream.
Does the bucket on your head also go with your profession, or is that just personal preference?
Hey, that last one is around 9000€. Is that cheap for you? :)
Compared to a like for like Rolex.....yes. Spending £9k on an Omega is madness IMO when you can buy a better classic Rolex. Omegas aren’t special or ‘upper crust’.....Rolex’s are IMO.
I’m a trendsetter.
Is this true? Haven’t Omega innovated on movements at all? Besides the submariner I’d take an Omega over anything else. It was on the moon for God’s sake.
I suppose I don’t know enough about watches.
Omega has done far more in terms of innovation then Rolex. I much prefer Rolex then Omega as to me, while Rolex has the prestige, it's Omega that produce the better watch, IMO. While I am in no way, shape or form stating that Rolex is a poor make of watch, the most innovative change they make is change the colour or precious metal of an existing model. Unlike Omega which is consistently bringing us new innovations in it's timepieces. The new Omega Seasmaster Professional (which Daniel Craig modelled for their official campaign) for example has a anti-magnetic co-axial movement, which is not only COSC certified but also METAS certified too! They are some of the best watches in the world with regards to innovation and accuracy, which is ultimately why you wear a watch.
Great article.
Quantum of Solace
Bolivia Airport Suit
Skyfall
Macau Casino Midnight Blue Tuxedo
Scotland/Skyfall Estate
Spectre
Mexico PTS Suit
Morocco Desert / Train Station (probably my fav of them all)
I like the Bolivia Airport Suit and Scotland/Skyfall Estate look the most out of these!
I also really regret not buying the John Varvatos Suede Bomber Jacket, as worn by Craig in the third act of Spectre. They had them available in my side (M) for the RRP £449.99 but I didn't buy it (this was mid 2017-ish). Nowadays they are rarer than hens teeth, and those that do pop up are twice the price.
Let me know your opinion.
;)
From where? I can only find it in the brand's store. It's sold out everywhere else. Oh, and what do you think of it? Is it stylish and comfortable?
On another note, and about Bond's baseball cap in NTTD, I said in 2006 that it was cool that we now had a Steve McQueen Bond. Little did I know. In CR and QOS, his beige trousers and shawl cardigan were pure McQueen. And now this. Who didn't spot the reference? :D
Kings of cool!
and now this, with McQueen.
Ah ah, tis true ;)
Or it's more from wearing it for a long time and putting his arm around the guy, making it ride up. Who knows.
Of course it doesn't. It looks ridiculous.
interesting exchange at 49 mins:
Interviewer: Does [going from Brosnan to Craig] create challenges or opportunities for you?
Hemming: Well I have to say, it was the last one I did, so that should tell you something.
I take it Craig had her replaced, as she goes on to say that he wanted a more modern look for Bond in the follow-ups.
That's a shame because Hemming was a godsend to this series. Brosnan was the only Bond who not once wore anything that didn't work on him. Casual or formal, everything Hemming gave him was immaculate. He looked natural in everything. Hemming also did well with Craig in CR, dressing him down somewhat while still making sure he looked stylish.
Craig's wardrobe in QOS good for the most part, but certain outfits he had like the white jeans and dark shirt in Haiti screamed, "I just got back from a haul at the AX outlet."
Then in Skyfall things really start to go awry, and they only got worse with each new movie. The tiny suits, the garish ensembles (barbour jacket and scarf, peacoat over a sweater and tie with leather gloves, the corduroy suit (WTF?), and of course this atrocity:

If Craig indeed was instrumental in getting Hemming sacked, the producers should have stepped in and overruled him. By the time he was finished with the role, Bond didn't look like Bond anymore.
