Orlebar Brown Setter Sky

The shorts worn by James Bond (Daniel Craig) in the film SkyFall have been identified by Forum member sruzgar and confirmed by one of our sources as Orlebar Brown Setter Sky swimming shorts.

The shorts could already be spotted in one of the first images from the SkyFall movie where we see Bond sitting in a swimming pool (a scene filmed in the luxurious pool of the London Four Seasons Hotel in Canary Wharf) and in the film the shorts can be spotted as well.

The Orlebar Brown Setter Sky shorts feature adjustable, engraved tabs at the sides and a zip fly with a single press stud closure. The shorts are made of a quick drying polyamide fabric. The product code of the Orlebar Brown Setter Sky shorts seen in the film is 25011530.

The shorts are a good choice for Bond, with their 1950s look, shorter length and tailored fit they are reminiscent of Sean Conney style shorts.

For a few years the shorts in Sky were not available anymore, but in June 2019, the colour Sky was made available again as a replica (product code 5056218158540), as part of the Orlebar Brown 007 Collection. It features the "Orlebar Brown 007" tag on the inside, but that's the only difference with the original Sky shorts seen in the film.

Update: currently (2023) the Sky blue Orlebar Brown Setter Sky 007 edition is not available anymore, but the Riviera II color is very similar and still available.

(make sure to select the color "Riviera II" on the Setter product page)
