It’s no secret that James Bond is a stylish, discerning gentleman. It’s his reputation, practically built into his character from the very first movie.

A few strategic partnerships as well as a discerning eye in the costume department has turned Britain’s leading secret agent into one of the best-dressed men to ever hit the silver screen.

So when it comes to dressing like him, what will do? It turns out the answer to that is the very best of everything.

It also helps to have almost no body fat.

I didn’t pay that much since I bought online and did not have to pay VAT.

Correct, but that is the price with VAT. I just explained that if you buy from the US you do not pay VAT.

I see.

Thanks.

I've bought some boots from the UK once. I remember not paying VAT, but don't remember the details.

Just looked up.
VAT is 20%

269=240

240 x 1.52 (conversion rate) = $340

I only wish the movie had been as good as the clothes. Skyfall was tons better. This latest Bond movie was a clunker. Just a bunch of disjointed fights and things blowing up.

Not a word about the guns. Pity.

I like the KPOS PDW kit Bond uses in the pre-title sequence. I want to get an FN57 and the KPOS for that.

You’ll love the Five seveN. I sure love mine. Definitely a specialty gun, though. Big, very, very light, lots of noise and a little bitty pill going very fast. Shoots like a .22LR, the ammo costs like a rifle. :-(
