Is James Bond still a style icon in 2021? We don’t know. What we do know is, we saw Daniel Craig sporting some nice threads in the latest 007 movie, with that military-inspired navy sweater he rocks in some scenes being one of those garments we can see ourselves rocking. Apparently, we can as the N. Peal 007 Ribbed Army Sweater is available as part of their regular collection.
According to the outfit, the garment is exclusively designed for James Bond’s latest turn in No Time to Die, with the brand working closely with the film’s costume designer, Suttirat Anne Larlarb, to realize her vision. Suffice to say, it’s a gorgeous design, one that gives the dapper secret agent a more casual option without losing that rugged refinement the character has worn as his badge over the years.
The N. Peal 007 Ribbed Army Sweater is styled with a naval military aesthetic, sporting a neck consistent with those on maritime clothing and a rib knitting similar to those you’ll find in GI sweaters. It also has those canvas patches on the elbows, shoulders, and cuffs to provide reinforcement at potential stress areas, so you can go heavily-strapped into battle without scuffing your clothes in those sections. No, we don’t want you to go full vigilante and walk around with an automatic rifle hanging on your shoulder, but we’re saying that, with this sweatshirt on, you absolutely could.
It’s made with a blend of superfine Merino and cashmere, so you get all the temperature regulation, moisture-wicking, and odor-resisting qualities of the technical fabric, along with the softness and premium feel of the luxurious goat fur. Yeah, you can wear this on its own during warmer days and layer it over shirts on chillier weather.
The N. Peal 007 Ribbed Army Sweater is available now, priced at $465.
