Where to buy Casino Royale Nikes ...

BillythekidBillythekid Posts: 33MI6 Agent
Hi all,

been having a blast buying Bond stuff this past week ; got my GrigioPerla Swim Trunks (thanks goodness i've been hitting the gym for the past 6 months :))), waiting for the moneyclip to arrive any day, Casino Royale Storyboards should be shipped on Tuesday - and my Omega PO hasn't left my wrist since it arrived two weeks ago.

So i've been searching for a pair of Nike Air Articulate II or Nike Air 6C Plus (it looks to me like the Articulate are *the* shoes) - and the closet i've come are Nike Air 6*D*. They're close = black suede upper, but the Nike "swoosh" is larger than that found on the two pair mentioned above. Any idea where i can find a pair of the Articulate ?

BTW (and pleas excuse me if links like this aren't allowed to be posted) - has anyone seen the following site (linked) ? It seems to me they have a HUGE amount of BOND movie props / stuff for sale. None is cheap, but the prices aren't so far out of reality that they couldn't be had if one really wanted ...

Feel free to delete the link if it isn't appropriate here !

Many thanks again for any help with the shoes and Kind Regards

Billy

    the articulates are mega rare now...i've seen a couple of pairs of the leather uppers over the last 5 months...

    I have a pair which i wear a lot, and love them...

    this is the only pair on ebay worldwide at moment..but they are in germany...he will definitely post within EU, but you could ask him if he'll post to UK...

    hope this helps

    thanks so much for the lead - unfortunately the size is much too large for me :# Bummer really as they look like a nice pair and i have serveral friend who could likely handle the shipping part for me. Much appreciate the lead - but i guess the search continues {[]

    Hope you're enjoying a great holiday weekend !

    Kind Regards,

    ah ok...

    actually i have an idea....

    i have a used (by the original owner, not me) pair size 9 US/8 uk..they're too small for me, so i display them...

    i could buy the size 11s in germany, and send you my size 8's if you care....

    just trying to help....i have no interest or gain in mind...

    upto you...

    Not to dance with someones elses date, but I am size 9 USA and since I know these run true to size if Billy doesn't plan on wearing them I would love to do the "traingle" with you Paul...and I might have a sweetener to boot.

    well it's entirely upto you guys....

    you can either take a shoelace each and duel to the death...

    or just let me know which of you is my dance partner, now i've done my bit for UK-German trade relations...

    On the condition that hans-knees actually send them to me, as I've just paid paypal...B-)

    As they stuffed us at football (yes yanks, that's sah-car to you...:v) I'm hoping he'll take pity on me and send em quick...:s

    Let me know....-{

    I'm very sad to hear the shoes run so true to size - i'd love to purchase them from you ! That said i guess it best i trust Mantis' experience with this shoe and allow him to enjoy them as they should be :#

    Oh well - as i've learned from watch collecting : the search is half the fun ! :))

    All the Best,
