In 1979’s Moonraker, Bond girl Holly Goodhead asks a dishevelled 007 whether he has “broken something” after jumping from a deathly height. In typical, ice-cool fashion, Bond responds: “Only my tailor’s heart.” 

This is typical of the style-conscious international man of mystery. No matter what ludicrous, death-defying situation the travelling super spy finds himself in, his forte for fashion is never far behind. As such, we offer a rundown of our five favourite James Bond travel suits – and how 007 put them to good use.

Pick-and-Pick Suit by Tom Ford

Travel by: Train
Worn by: Daniel Craig
Movie: Skyfall
Year: 2012
Location: Istanbul

Worn by Daniel Craig atop a speeding train in the opening scenes of Skyfall, the Tom Ford pick-and-pick suit lends a touch of understated elegance to Bond’s usual destructive antics. The tight-fitting two-piece is woven in a semi-solid pattern, adding dimension while keeping it classy. The short tailored suit is paired with a white Tom Ford shirt with tab collar, making for an incredibly sharp, classic look. Luckily, the suit looks just as good on a motorbike as it does on a train. 

Travel by: Car
Worn by: Sean Connery
Movie: Dr. No
Year: 1962
Location: Jamaica

Bond is no stranger to a car chase. His varied, gadget-enhanced fleet has been put to good use over the years, but one thing has remained constant: his unflinching style. Setting the bar, Sean Connery wears a single-breasted navy blazer while driving frenziedly in the earliest 007 movie, Dr. No. Tailored in wool serge, the heavy blazer is perfect for open-top driving, while its metal buttons and double vents lend the piece a distinctly English flavour.

Travel by: Plane
Worn by: Roger Moore
Movie: Moonraker
Year: 1979
Location: enroute to England

Every man needs a multi-purpose travel suit. From seducing women aboard your private jet to skydiving after a super villain, the double-breasted blazer with roll-neck sweater – worn by Roger Moore in Moonraker – is about as multi-purpose as it gets. Looking slightly nautical, the blue, six-button blazer boasts wide notch lapels and is worn with a cream roll-neck sweater and flared grey wool trousers. Perfect for a mid-morning skydive.

Travel by: Tank
Worn by: Pierce Brosnan
Movie: Goldeneye
Year: 1995
Location: St. Petersburg

Granted, not many of us will find ourselves in a position where ‘army tank’ is the most viable form of transport, but Bond is no stranger to innovative travel. Keeping tank driving stylish, Pierce Brosnan hurtles through the winding streets of St. Petersburg in a stolen T-55 wearing a navy Birdseye suit, paired with a navy and gold tie over a cream shirt with standard collar – keeping the destruction of historic monuments classy since 1995.

Travel by: Boat
Worn by: Roger Moore
Movie: Moonraker
Year: 1979
Location: Amazon

For the more exotic, adventurous traveller, the cotton drill safari suit worn by a jungle-traversing Roger Moore in Moonraker is the perfect stylish addition to your outdoor wardrobe. The five-button shirt includes adjustable shoulder straps and a single-button cuff, while four patch pockets and deep side vents keep things practical. Whether you’re avoiding missiles on the water or trekking through the Brazilian jungle, this classic 1970s two-piece will help keep you on-mission.
