It was released in October 2012 to coincide with celebrations for the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Skyfall was a huge critical and financial success, becoming the first Bond entry to generate ticket sales of over $1 billion. The film\u2019s title refers to Skyfall Lodge, the childhood home of Bond himself: this remote countryside estate in Scotland was his residence until the death of his parents and provided the location for the dramatic climax of the movie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Skyfall-Tracksuit-Bluray-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-9358 article__image\" src=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Skyfall-Tracksuit-Bluray-6-1024x434.jpg\" alt=\"Skyfall Tracksuit Bluray (6)\" width=\"731\" height=\"310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/content.propstore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Skyfall-Tracksuit-Bluray-6-1024x434.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/content.propstore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Skyfall-Tracksuit-Bluray-6-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/content.propstore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Skyfall-Tracksuit-Bluray-6.jpg 1846w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\">After the predictably exciting pre-title sequence where he\u2019s seen running down a villain with a stolen data file, Bond is presumed dead. M has written his obituary and a funeral has taken place. Bond, using his \u201cdeath\u201d as an excuse to retire, returns to action once the attack on MI6 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.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-9359 article__image\" src=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-7-727x1024.jpg\" alt=\"BOND- Skyfall- Daniel Craig Tracksuits (7)\" width=\"336\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/content.propstore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-7-727x1024.jpg 727w, https:\/\/content.propstore.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-7-213x300.jpg 213w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 336px) 100vw, 336px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-5-small.jpg\" rel=\"gallery[london]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"starwarsthumb size-thumbnail wp-image-7813 alignnone article__image\" src=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-5-small-215x150.jpg\" alt=\"BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-5-small\" width=\"215\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-12.jpg\" rel=\"gallery[london]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"starwarsthumb size-thumbnail wp-image-7814 alignnone article__image\" src=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-12-215x150.jpg\" alt=\"BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-12\" width=\"215\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-10.jpg\" rel=\"gallery[london]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"starwarsthumb size-thumbnail wp-image-7815 alignnone article__image\" src=\"http:\/\/propstore.loc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-10-215x150.jpg\" alt=\"BOND-Skyfall-Daniel-Craig-Tracksuits-10\" width=\"215\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\">This is the MI6-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 MI6 logo. The set is completed by a pair of blue Adidas training shoes. There\u2019s an original costumers\u2019 tag attached reading \u201cB23 \u2013 Skyfall, James Bond, Daniel Craig, scene \u2013day 7 sc44- sc49, hero\u201d, and the costume is presented on a custom made display mannequin. This is the kind of outfit perfect for those who want to say they\u2019re cosplaying as Bond, but don\u2019t want to go to the expense of picking up a fancy suit. And if you miss the last train and can\u2019t afford a cab, you can run home in relative comfort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" aligncenter article__image\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/arnoIjxmPq5PO\/giphy.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"183\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p-r article__paragraph\"><em>Love this item?
