I saw my first Bond movie at age 10, at a Drive In in El Paso Texas…..with my parents….From Russia With Love….back in 1964? 65? Then, a few years later….my Dad took me to see Thunderball at a cinema in downtown El Paso. Fast forward (too damned fast, I think sometimes), I’m a retired Navy Officer, and retired from Federal Law Enforcement. My Dad, sadly has passed along, but I’m in my late 60s and still enjoy the hell out of 007 movies. I now live a minimalist lifestyle….I’ve had my fun. I still own a Jeep TJ, a pretty nice pick up and a classic Porsche. But I’m in the process of selling everything. And the few clothes that I will keep, (aside from my formal Navy Dress uniform and my Navy Flight Jackets) I want to be quality, timeless (I still work at staying in shape) and look good on me. I think I’m going to “pull the trigger” and get one of these suede jackets. Damn it all….they do look good! Bravo Zulu, well done….a great video, amigo!
I like to go frugal on some items, like a Wool Peacoat and a Harrington jacket, you can find some real bargains that look the part, but Items like Barbour Commando jacket, sometimes you have to pay full price for the real thing because the cheaper alternatives either don't exist or they don't quite look like the item it is copying.
Hey David! Great video as usual. Question, the Uniqlo link takes me just to their site. Would you mind giving more info on the pants you are wearing? Thanks I’m advance.
I bought both the QOS Haiti jacket and the Casino Royale Miami leather bomber jacket I am 5'9" and weigh 170 lbs. with a 40/41" chest and a 32" waist. I bought the medium in both jackets and they fit like a glove. A trim fit but not too tight. I cannot stand baggy clothes. great quality. I am very happy with them. I used to weigh 195 with a lot of muscle because I was a weight lifter. I had a stroke in April and lost 25 lbs. I used to wear a large So I had to buy all new clothes.
Slightly off-topic, I have the Billy Reid Peacoat arriving on Monday because your previous videos. Being in the UK, the taxes, duties, and shipping had me questioning my sanity, but I pulled the trigger after adding and removing it from the basket three times. Thanks for your videos, I'd never know about these brands otherwise.
@@hadonhadon3920 Thanks, I did find a 15% discount code off the Internet for Billy Reid. I make few purchases, and will pay the premium for quality and long lasting products.
You can go even more frugal and get a weatherproof Jacket in blue or black and you can get a similar feel to the Y3 just not quite screen accurate of course, but again a savings. I'd love to see you do a frugal Bond with regular brands to get the Bond look. I bet you could pull it off!
24:35 I love that this jacket is back in stock in more sizes. Only feedback (and personal preference) is that I think I would’ve preferred if the Royale Jacket actually matched the Matchless jacket color. I understand the idea behind “matching the color of the jacket in the movie”…i completely agree with that idea. But for some reason, the Royale (to me) doesn’t seem to do that. The color seems too “pale” in comparison to the look in the film. I actually think if Royale Filmwear matched the color of the matchless jacket, it would’ve gotten things much closer to the “film look”. The matchless jacket is slightly darker in shade and has that warmer/yellow tone of beige that under certain lighting looks just like the movie (because it is the same jacket as the one in the movie). If a version2.0 was made, I’d prefer to get the color to match the original more, if possible. That said, the execution of the Royale Jacket is excellent!
I have the Clark’s desert welt which is an amazing chukka boot that I love so much. You can’t find them anymore really so I’m happy I was able to find a pair on eBay in my size. I will hold on to them for as long as I can.
Another absolute banger of a video David . The suede jacket from Daniel Love actually, (I think) , beats the original colour wise. Looking forward to the next video
@@007cheburashka same, I have the Matcheless Craig jacket, and I really love it; the John Varvatos jacket are very very rare, was released in a limited quantity.
Well done, David! I can see in your expression serving as a model is a little challenging. Still, you pull it off! Cheers JR Old warrior, even older novelist
Love the channel David can we please get a video about no time to die and how they changed the composer I Would love to hear the music he had made before they swapped
Bro I struggle so much with pants. I have a 32” waist with 25” thighs and even straight cut and athletic pants look like they’re spray painted on me. The only pants I’ve ever worn that give me enough room are the track pants I train in. It’s hilarious and kind of a bummer
Informative and well researched as always. Now I can finally order with confidence in the sizing, so many thanks. Since you took a medium for all of them, I was wondering if you still like the small for the C.R. leather jacket? Just want to be sure before wearing mine. I sent an email a week or so ago if you want to answer there.
been interested in Royale Filmwear apparel in a while but have always been concerned about sizing even looking at his guides. I'm really interested in his Bond Peacoat replica. I basically wear a US size 38R or 38S in every suit/blazer i own and only get the waist taken in at the tailor. I'm about 5'7" and range between 145-150 lbs. What size Shanghai Peacoat would you recommend?
Hey David, will you do a review / close up with the Palladium boots? Im particularly interested in how the boot is built and what kind of lining they have (like are they heated or not?). All the best to you!
When Bond first gets to his boyhood home in Skyfall he’s wearing a green gun jacket. It’s long out of production and I can’t find any that aren’t beaten up. Any suggestions?
Hey David. You said you were a “42”. Is that a 42” chest or US 42 blazer size. I ask cause I’m trying to decide between a M and L. I’m a typical US 42R blazer which I think makes me a L based on the Royale Filmwear size guide.
During your vids, do you consider style thoughts on who can wear these items? I mean, you’re showing Craig era jackets, but Craig is a light, blond, sandy haired guy. Do you think Bond fans who are dark haired can pull these jackets off? That last one wouldn’t work for me, as a tall Connery/dalton/Brosnan look.
I pretty much buy every RGT jacket that they release.... I wear them daily, including the tan supply jacket from NTTD.... They get plenty of love from me
Funny that it’s like you treat Bond as a real person. I’m sure his wardrobe is selected as part of scene. How the outfit looks is as important as the actor. Hollywood has Been doing this from the beginning.
I suppose this is the focus of your channel? "How to live like Bond"?? THis video...to do it "within your means". Most Bond fans can't afford his lifestyle...can't asfford a new 2023 Aston Martin DBS, new Tom Ford jackets or a new Omgea Seamaster 200M......etc. (i think Omega messed up their Bond theme watches...cheapened them....by putting too much "Bond labeling" in/otuside the box, back of the watch ac....etc....should have simply just left a card in the box saying it's the same model as worn by Brosnan/Craig...)... In the end....if it makes a Bond fan happy to brank his bank trying to have A"Bodn tiems" .....GO FOR IT!! :) Really the ide is to try to capture "the essense of Bond"....his "energy" his "charisma/flair"....how you carry yourself in public ( without looking like a Bond nerd trying too hard to BE BOND...LOL..)....I mean, as much as a fan tries to "look like Bond" most case he won't....even if he has hte REAL Bond items....or at least not cheap knockoffs....no one is going to look at most guys and say "...GEE, THAT GUY LOOKS SO MUCH LIKE BOND11"... heh....who A"...DRIVES A Ford Mustang GT>.." :)) fKeep in mind to complete the "Bond ffeperience" you're going to need a Super model GF :)) Can't buy that (unless she's an Escort) :)) You either HAVE the "essence of Bond" or you don't. Being able eto afford a 2024 Aston Martin DBS won't do it :)) But again...if it makes a fan happy....heh...

This is because they had Daniel wearing smaller sizes for 'hero shots' and a more reasonable size for movement or action shots.

I’ve always loved the Quantum of Solace jacket.
They are all great jackets, but fall/autumn is Skyfall Barbour season in my book!

Love this video David. Well done Daniel these are great pieces. Ps Regular 42 chest size is showing as a “large” on the website sizing chart.

Aaron-Talor Johnson has to ne the next Bond! - re watching Bullet Train and his screen presence is sublime!!!
Bonus bond points for Royale Filmware being based in Brisbane too.
Clarkes are by far the best desert boots in my opinion
I liked simply for the C-3PO oil bath Tatooine reference.
Thank you David for another frugal Bond video, this was fun to watch this morning, and thanks for being on live with us!!!
Great video! Can you tell us which pants on Uniqlo you are wearing?
Good video and one of the greatest thing about going to Gatherall was meeting you so I know exactly how big the model is 😂 .
Cant wait for the Suede London Racer Jacket :D
Same. Have the original Matchless, but never found the Varvatos.
@@007cheburashka same, I have the Matcheless Craig jacket, and I really love it; the John Varvatos jacket are very very rare, was released in a limited quantity.

Thank you, David, great/awesome review video. Good frugal bond collection. 🤝👍😊
Your videos are Dangerous..tempting me again and again...wish I had seen this before I got my replica Matchless Suede
David!!! I need to get tickets!!! To your Bond GUN show!!!
QOS was such a great movie. Loved every outfit and loved how he Bonded with Olga Kurylenko. It’s a no brainer to get these jackets. Best wishes. 🫶🏼🙌🏼
Brilliant, I am about the same size as you, only choice for me is to get the Harrington or invest a little bit more and get the suede.
Love the channel David can we please get a video about no time to die and how they changed the composer I
Would love to hear the music he had made before they swapped
It's not quite a frugal item, but the NTTD Rogue Territory jacket is pound for pound one of the best Bond items
mine arrived and oh boy.. what a jacket 😍😍
I appreciate this content ✔
Another great video. Thank you, David!

May be Time for tailored pants my friend.
Thanks David, not a fan of jeans. That’s why when there’s an action to be taken care of. I rely on 511 tactical. Always be ready.

42 caliber!!!!
where did you get the skull mask behind you. I got a cheep one from amazon but its no that good.
Hey David. You said you were a “42”. Is that a 42” chest or US 42 blazer size. I ask cause I’m trying to decide between a M and L. I’m a typical US 42R blazer which I think makes me a L based on the Royale Filmwear size guide.
David, question. How come Bond wore a Rolex?
When you come here excited for frugal but even the cheap ones break the bank

Do you think Bond fans who are dark haired can pull these jackets off? That last one wouldn’t work for me, as a tall Connery/dalton/Brosnan look.
I watched QoS again and agsin and again, looking for the "button belt" on the collar of that Y2 but no one scene shows it. Are you sure it has those ?
David...if you dont mind me asking for size reference... what's your height and weight?
Hello David and thanks for the video. Can you give the reference / serial number of the Uniqlo pants ?
Speaking of jackets, have we fallen out of love with the RGT jacket? I feel like I don’t see people wearing it as much anymore.
I pretty much buy every RGT jacket that they release.... I wear them daily, including the tan supply jacket from NTTD.... They get plenty of love from me
I don’t wear it much, but I also own too many jackets already. It’s tough to collect all these and really get good wear out of all of them.
Funny that it’s like you treat Bond as a real person. I’m sure his wardrobe is selected as part of scene. How the outfit looks is as important as the actor. Hollywood has Been doing this from the beginning.
Doing great for 55.
Great video. The audio is too NPR. Too crisp.
I was today years old when I found out the need for 2 zippers. To sit down! 😮
Wait until you find out other actors played Bond.
