James Bond Skyfall

Skyfall is the 23rd film on the James Bond series which sees 007 investigating an audacious attack on M.I.6. with M as the apparent target. It was released in October 2012 to coincide with celebrations for the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Skyfall was a huge critical financial success, becoming the first Bond film to generate ticket sales of over $1 billion. The film’s title refers to Skyfall Lodge, the childhood home of James Bond. The remote countryside estate was his residence until the death of his parents and provided the location for the dramatic climax of the movie.

After the predictably exciting pre-title sequence, James Bond is presumed dead. M has written his obituary and a funeral has taken place. 007, using his “death” as an excuse to retire, returns to action once the attack on M.I.6. headquarters unfolds. Before he can return to service, he has to undergo a series of physical and mental examinations. Although those tests are failed, M authorises his return to the field.

This is the M.I.6. issue tracksuit worn by Daniel Craig for those sequences. The outfit consists of a navy blue zippered jacket with silver crest to the left chest, navy blue trousers and a blue grey textured t-shirt also featuring a silver M.I.6. logo. The set is completed by a pair of blue Adidas training shoes. Original costumers tag attached reads “B23 – Skyfall, James Bond, Daniel Craig, scene –day 7 sc44- sc49, hero.” The costume is presented on a custom made display mannequin.
