James Bond Spectre Aston Martin DB10 Silhouette
“Yule Only Live Twice”
I'm the Christmas Bond T-Shirt
SNOWBODY DOES IT BETTER
I have the Disco Volante crew T from 007Store - not entirely happy with it as the printing isn't straight/level but at least they put a lot of effort into the accompanying drawstring bag...
NTTD shirt in graphite with white text, which I believe was the first unofficial NTTD T-shirt to have the correct NTTD font/logo printed on, bought in August 2019 (wore this to the cinema event 2 years later). I try to avoid unofficial stuff but tickets for the NTTD hype train were free!
I've come close recently to attempting to get the N Peal sweater from NTTD but it's pricey (even used on eBay). Also looked into some English/Irish surplus military sweaters as a close equivalent but didn't like the fit much.
As for Bond t-shirts, I kinda like the "kid/teen" gunbarrel one on the 007 store, or the imprinted 007 logo polo shirt. Might get myself a gift.
The N Peal NTTD Sweater is an odd one. It looks and feels amazing but it is, in my mind, not something you could easily wear every day. Its unique design, especially the neck draw, makes it feel a bit more cosplay-y.
I picked mine up in Autumn 2020 for around £280 from N Peal with a discount code. I have maybe worn it 4-5 times, mainly due to the above. But a nice piece to have anyway.
If you wanted a piece of N Peal 007 that is more every day wearable, I would probably recommend the Skyfall Blue cashmere jumper, or the Spectre Turtle Neck jumper in dark charcoal grey.
Thanks for the advice. I happen to be a sucker for a stunt sweater at a party, and I don't mean the jokey holiday reindeer jumpers everyone goes for, so the NTTD shirt would get worn in the right weather, I'm sure, it's just a matter of time. Maybe next year. Thanks for the advice, not sure I could justify doling out N Peal money for something that wasn't a little gimmicky, actually, if that makes sense? I want to pay the special price for the special item; I can get a turtleneck anywhere.
All that said, I come from a military family but am not military myself, and I'm typically wary of imitating that look just out of some weird aversion due to my background (an overfamiliarity perhaps). I also currently lack a muscular physique, which would help fill the sweater haha. But I know I'd wear it.
Edit: Wayback machine saved some low-res images of my old Bond t-shirt designs (no longer for sale!) -
They all got removed involuntarily, we'll just say that.
Quite a few, official and unofficial (I have way too many T-shirts in general).
This, from Teefury, is my favourite:
I also love my 007 Store one with the TLD Aston Martin, which I bought myself as a new-job treat some years ago. The print's faded a bit but it's lovely and soft.
