‘‘There have been so
many different characters in films and in theatre that I have
dressed in Sunspel vests, t-shirts and underwear because they
are classic, timeless and beautifully made. This time, dressing
Daniel Craig as the new James Bond, I thought that it would
be a perfect collaboration of quality and Britishness to ask
Sunspel to create all his t-shirts, polo shirts and underwear,
which they duly did so excellently. He looks very sexy and happy
in their clothing.”
Lindy Hemming – costume designer
‘‘I received my 007 T-shirts around
two weeks ago, very pleased with them. I also ordered two long
sleeved T-shirts and another grey T-shirt, again very pleased
with them. I will be buying more T-shirts from you soon!”

‘‘I bought 12 sets of Sunspel underwear
45 years ago from Gieves & Hawkes, in nylon mesh. I have
worn them continuously - sadly down to 6 sets now, occasioned
by the rigours of washing machines. Do you still make the nylon
mesh underwear?”
Lt Cmdr Roy– 10.5.2007.
‘‘I could not be happier with my
Casino Royale blue polo made by your fine company. As a collector
of James Bond collectables AND someone who enjoys fine clothing
I am doubly satisfied with your offering. When Casino Royale
first premiered the world wondered what brand made Bond's blue
polo that he wears in the Bahamas. After collectors discovered
it was Sunspel the only chore was to actually OWN one of these
garments. Your company was wonderful to work with and the customer
service you exhibited to each consumer made us all feel as if
we as important as Bond himself. The shirt itself feels lighter
than air making it as perfect for the warm summers in Pennsylvania
as much as the heat of the Bahamas. Wearing it for the first
time seems to transport you to that nostalgic and very Bond
moment in Casino Royale. I forever will be a Sunspel advocate
and again applaud your company on a great product, great service,
and attention to detail.”
David Zaritsky
“Every day I reach into the drawer and blindly pull
out a pair of white cotton two ply Sunspel boxers and probably
a white Sunspel T-shirt too. I can start dressing without even
looking, safe in the knowledge that whatever ensemble goes on
top my attire is built on sound foundations.”
