Now, for a pretty penny, you too can don Bond's go-to attire, which formed a 'wardrobe as discreet as his personality,' Fleming once wrote. To celebrate Craig's final film as Bond, No Time to Die, Ian Fleming's overwhelming influence, and the spy's favorite shirt (although, admittedly, he was largely Fleming's avatar), Sunspel has dropped an entire collection with the author's estate - one filled with Sea Island cotton polos, dress shirts, sweaters and sweatshirts.

It's also the foundation for Sunspel's Riviera Polo, which Bond (so ably played by actor Daniel Craig) wore in 2006's relaunch of the franchise, Casino Royale. Well, it's heavily concentrated in Jamaica, where Fleming wrote most of the novels, and where things like Vesper gin and Blue Mountain coffe were commonplace, too. Wait, what even is Sea Island cotton? Where's it come from? A better choice might be the blue mist or mid blue Double L long sleeved polos that can be purchased from LL Bean. (And, of course, Walther's iconic PPK pistol.) All of these check out as very appropriate for a secret agent with a taste for the good life, except for.that rather specific type of textile? Additionally, the Riviera is tailored with lightweight cotton, so you’ll be able to stay cool as. Designed for Daniel Craig in Casino Royale, Sunspel’s Riviera polo shirt features a slim fit and short sleeves to show off what you’ve been working on in the gym. Among the mentioned items in Fleming's novels: Vesper gin, Blue Mountain Coffee, Morland cigarettes, Taittinger champagne, and Sea Island cotton. If you’re on the prowl for the James Bond polo shirt brand, you’ve found it. Ian Fleming peppered the Bond books with what he called 'props' - items which, arguably, could be considered the original product placements.
