And that's precisely because in his retirement Bond is like us. We can't wear his work clothes because we are not agents and it would look a bit strange in our own everyday life.
The grey, worn shirt Bond uses made me think of the one he uses in the Venice/boat scene in Casino Royale. Maybe it's supposed to be the same as it may have been a gift from Vesper?
@@SprezzaturaLifestyle trust me you are preaching to the converted but a tee shirt is a tee shirt is a tee shirt. I am not trying to be flippant or draw attention to myself trust me but some brands are just laughing all the way to the bank at our expense.
He's always been known (in Ian Fleming books) to gamble and save money to waste it eventually. So i guess that's what it is. He survived Turkey and managed to make money so I don't think money is hard for him to earn.
David, hopefully this comment will be seen. Do you prefer the OB t-shirts over the Sunspel t-shirts? Considering both and would love your opinion as I believe you have each. Thanks!
Really appreciate the review and like so many others here, I cannot wait for David for bring us the jeans (and the shoes) from the garage scene. Thanks!
Like other comments, the price for this t-shirt is insane whether your Bond or not! Use the money to get yourself in shape and you can wear a $20 t-shirt and look just as good as Bond. Just my two cents...literally. Interesting channel. I ended up ordering the Harrington jacket from Royale because i ended up comparing all other jackets to the one i saw there.
I agree. There are much more cost effective ways to spend money to achieve the emotional connection to the Bond character we all enjoy. Luxury brand prices can at times feel like insulting price-gouging, and certainly there's a point of diminishing return with regard to quality vs branding and price point. It can also easily be argued that Brands like Orlebar Brown far exceed their value regarding some of their products such as the aforementioned T-shirt. But something to keep in mind is that luxury doesn't require justification or a practical mindset. The acquisition of luxury merely requires the means, and the will to acquire. They are referred to as aspirational brands for reasons of their history, style, quality and iconic status. For people in Mr. Zaritsk's income bracket, paying $125 per T-shirt is simply not an issue. He simply wants it for the emotional reasons he wants it, and the money it costs to obtain any of said items in his collection have no adverse consequences on his finances. I also suspect that some substantial revenue is likely being generated by his channel in some capacity which would possibly contribute to certain aspects of his hobby. It's been my experience that intelligent people of means often have hobbies that are self supporting in some capacity even if it starts out as a venture that is fully self-funded.
OMG... What a huge fashion fetish you have, David! It's already beyond my mind... I'm a big Bond fan too, (at least Bonds 1962-2002). But I'm a fan of the movies, not so much of clothing...
How does it compare to the Sunspel Riviera T-shirt? The OB looks longer and less fitted than the Sunspel (I prefer the T-shirt to be off the hip). The neck also looks too loose and not well fitted.
I live near the sunspel factory and their factory store has reopened after a long covid induced hiatus. Brought so much stuff haha So I'm a sunspel fan over OB
Just bought my second one! Loved the shirt the grey is the most softest shirt I’ve ever felt! This time around I did go up a size. Reason for that is they are pretty long so when you throw it in the washer and dryer it definitely goes up to a nice length but then it’s super super tight. So hopefully going up one size will help with that when I dry it. But like I said most softest lightest shirt I’ve ever had it’s amazing! Very very comfortable. If this going up one size goes pretty well I’ll probably go by 3 more. That’s how good they are.
Ahhh this is good to read. I'm a shorter guy and bought two of the XS and came pretty lengthy. Was immediately pondering the ~$200 purchase before cutting tags, hoping they'll shrink to a good size
Did you happen to notice how much the OBT shrinks when you wash it? Their tag states to NOT put it in the dryer, did you use a dryer? Or just lay flat to dry? I am asking because a small is a bit too fitted for my liking. A medium is ok, just a little too loose. If it were to shrink a little it would be perfect but I am EXTREMELY nervous to put a 95.00 T in the dryer and ruin it. Just curious on your thoughts and experience with washing and drying. Thank you for your time.
As always great video David, I always wish I could afford anything James Bond wears. With that said, have you ever thought of making a video of James Bond’s Omega watches that are a relative cheap look alike? I think it would be great!
After seeing the movie now.....that fishing Tshirt is great! Surely that has to be one of Daniel Craig’s personal shirts. It looks like it’s left over from his 20’s. Really doesn’t seem to fit at all but then it does. Way too short but still cool. Leftover from football practice. The point is that you have to be in really freaking good shape in your 50’s to walk around in daily life in just a t shirt. I’m 52 years old and similar build as DC. I had to leave that Casino royale goal behind. This new Henley and suspenders thing at the end of NTTD and the fishing shirt are great! But we have to be in shape to look right in this stuff!
bought two nice white t-shirts, with the best fit ive ever seen. cost me 9,99 €. im always willing to spend some money in special quality cloths like the barbour jacket, some crockett and jones islays or getting a 2000,00 € special order suit at mason and sons. but 115,00 € for a white shirt, is not for me.
Do you notice the top of the arm seam kinks sometimes? The white shirt your wore in this was doing it…I have the same. I can’t work out if it’s a fitting issue or stitching issue.
Did you delete my lengthy response to the guy who commented "a t-shirt is a t-shirt" or did he delete his himself because I convinced him and with the deletion of his comment mine disappeared with his?
@@TurkeyRoo It does a little. But I did find that the grey shirt does fit a lot better then the other options that they have. The white tshirt to me is bad quality definitely isn’t comfortable at all and not worth the money.
First of all if something is worth the money or not is not judged by the price but by what you get in return for what you pay. Just one example: For the average Joe cotton is cotton, but nothing could be further from the truth. Also the quality and durability of the dyes, the way it is dyed, the manufacturing quality and most importantly, the quality of the cut and the fiber length (durability) vary that much that the differences can be huge. Of course there are companies that sell you crap quality for high prices and you have to have the knowledge to be able to judge the quality and filter those, but high quality for low prices is an economical impossibility. And 85 Euros is just medium level price range for t-shirts. If you want genuine high level quality that you get from brands like Zegna for example prices start at about 200. And if you want the best of the best, like sea island cotton made in Italy 300 or more are appropriate.
I wear my CR Sunspel T so much, in a few more months it’ll be screen accurate as far as wear! Really surprised they went with OB, instead of keeping with SS as far as the t-shirts go
I am a huge OB-T fan!, and literally live in them all Summer long! I have noticed that the overall length and arm length, have gotten longer since Chanel purchased them, though the linen OB-T fits just like the original ones, and the material is incredible!
Personally love the "retirement" looks. They seem like outfits you can actually wear!

All great until I saw the price of the tee shirt…..great channel, great entertainment thank you
If you don't want to wear what the average Joe wears then the price has to be higher than what average Joe can afford.
On sale for $135.00 😢

did bond afford that island place with his poker winnings?

Holy crap $138 dollars for a t-shirt?! I can get one from collars and co. for $60 and they fit just the same. Pompous ass companies. 🙄
Sorry if I missed it but what's the name of the tan jacket?

OB T-Shirt looks MUCH better on David than on Daniel Craig in the "No Time to Die" movie.
How does it compare to the Sunspel Riviera T-shirt? The OB looks longer and less fitted than the Sunspel (I prefer the T-shirt to be off the hip). The neck also looks too loose and not well fitted.
Somebody know what is the exact short/swimming short he wears in NTTF? Thanks
Are you going to be the next James Bond?
You should do a video with the small on and the medium so people can get a better look at the sizing!
The Bond workout ! Well done DZ.
I live near the sunspel factory and their factory store has reopened after a long covid induced hiatus.
Brought so much stuff haha
So I'm a sunspel fan over OB
Does anyone know where the shorts are from?
That white t-shirt is so poorly made. Look at all the extra fabric popping up on the back part of the shoulder area... #garbage

Great video. Are we ever gonna see the return of the Frugal Bond vids regarding clothing, accessories etc?
OMG sucker for a great T, grabbing one of these and hope they become my fav so I can get 5 more!
Love your channel. Just subscribed 😊 And ordered tickets to the movie premiere day of course 👍
David maybe you should come to Portugal someday 😜
Hello, do you know the brand of shorts? Thanks
Damn, that's first shirt looks nice! Thanks!
Hello, do you know the brand of shorts? Thanks
I have an OB-T that was special edition Kingsman and it looks almost the exact same.
Doesn't tell us who makes the swim trunks though
what about the jacket, what's the brand?
Not a fan of the rolled bottom cuff jeans look.
But which shorts is that? Also ob?
Great shirt. It looks really good.
I heard the sundpel gray shirt is a little itchy around the neck can you play let me know how it feels?
I've owned both the original and the updated version and have never had an issue with the neck. Hardly know it's there.
I am 6 foot 3 and often t shirts come a bit short in the medium. How tall are you David?
He is like 5'8
Great video - Love these shirts!
Great work David!
Just ordered!
I bought the shirt just now! Hopefully it fits well fingers crossed lol I did go based off of their size chart.
Can I ask what you thought and whether they fit true to size and shrank at all?
@@TurkeyRoo It does a little. But I did find that the grey shirt does fit a lot better then the other options that they have. The white tshirt to me is bad quality definitely isn’t comfortable at all and not worth the money.

Great review as alway David. Has the brand of jeans for the garage outfit been identified?
I am a huge OB-T fan!, and literally live in them all Summer long! I have noticed that the overall length and arm length, have gotten longer since Chanel purchased them, though the linen OB-T fits just like the original ones, and the material is incredible!
I really miss the longer Plackets the long Sleeve Sebastian Polos used to have. Gave a very distinct look without screaming in your face it was OB.
Works with the glasses - another great video. In London visit The OB shop - you might spot some other Bond brands
What kind of Jeans and Boots?
