I echo what everyone is saying that the resell amounts are insane. This isn’t anything new I guess. People have been doing things like this with Jordan’s, Nike Off-White’s, Yezzy’s, etc. There are pairs of ugly, in my opinion, Nike Off-White Vapormax shoes going for upwards of $1300.00 USD. Insane. Good luck to all that were able to order these Danners. Hoping all your orders will be fulfilled. **Fingers Crossed**

I did the same, all sizes in stock, but they went oos immediately. So would guess they only had 3 or 4 of each, similar to Huckberry / Uncrate stock totals
I was on the Huckberry site hitting refresh and they went live around 3:55PM (EST). After several cart errors and endless refreshing, I came away with the 9.5's I needed. As of this post, they are now all sold out.
Anyone notice this special add on, from the 007store page -
This special 007Store edition comes with a limited edition 007 x Danner passport case made with all-black leather from the Danner boot factory in Portland, Oregon
You think that’s bad, google ‘EF Education x Palace’ cycling kit, most team kits end up at 50-60% off end of season or worse, Chuck a palace logo on it and all of a sudden sells out in 5 minutes then ends up on eBay marked up 10x or more, hype sucks.
Just got my 10.5 US in the mail. I have 2 other pairs of boots that are both 9's but I wear a 10 in sneakers. Having said that, I'm shocked at how well these fit. I lined them up with a pair of boots from Thursday Boot Company that are size 9's and the length appears to be nearly identical. Just throwing it out there, this may be a trend for these boots to run small.
Other than that, the boots are extremely comfortable. They feel like I've owned them for years so I don't see there being a break in period at all.
Look you have your reasons, but poor form. A lot of fans have missed out on the initial drops of these and it’s the resellers, just looking to make a profit, who are making it impossible to pick them up at all!
And how do you know the details on that transaction from several years ago triple seven, who only joined us Feb this year? Anyway there’s a difference between taking bids and accepting someone’s high offer. I’m sorry.
I think triple seven was maybe just thinking out loud when saying he might sell them. And it's not as if he bought up several pairs, so I'd be cool with whatever he does with 'em anyway. In fairness, anyone who actually bought at release couldn't have been betting on these 3x or 4x 'valuations' we are seeing.
This was basically my thought process. I genuinely wanted the boots and was lucky to get a pair that may or may not fit. I just found the resale prices comically high, and should the ONE size I could get be too large it’s nice to know that there’s a robust market for them. That being said if I do have to sell them why would I take any less than the highest offer? I don’t think it’s poor form for anyone to do that, it’s just the nature of commerce.
I know a fair number of re-sellers from the thrifting world. For them it's a business, just like any other. And I know for a fact it's a risky business. For every "strike gold" like these Danners, they have way more losses when the re-sale value didn't match the hype. Some things are no-brainers (Supreme drops, Yeezies or a LE Nike colorway), but things are seldom that obvious. They are always on the hunt, willing to take chances, and (the ones I respect at least) work hard for the pennies.
I get the disappoint over the Danners. Especially those of you who had the boots in their carts and were unable to check out. That would frustrate me as well, even knowing as I do that inventory counts can lag by a couple of seconds on web store-fronts. But, to beat a dead horse, my greater frustration is with Danner's customer service. Asking people to sign up for a notification for an LE product and then not even sending out an email (or, even better, allowing those who signed up to get early access) is the real poor form.
As for @mhj116 decision about his boots: well, they are his boots and he can do what he wants. People buy low and sell high all the time. Maybe we're being a little sensitive because this particular case it's a Bond item we want but can't get. However, if I was considering selling the boots I had in hand for a higher proft, I probably would have been a little more discreet about it. Announcing it here, where the fans are already frustrated, might not have been the wisest move. Just saying ....
Fair point-to be clear I originally announced it on here well before the Ebay resells popped up, and only after I was forced to buy a size that may not fit. My thought was that if I can’t wear them, the only aftermarket that would exist would be within the confines of this forum ( and they would go to someone who wanted them) I’ve never resold a Bond item before and didn’t expect that kind of fervor or disappointment. I think this all goes back to Danner botching the rollout and leaving people angry.

Anyone ordered the danner boots and connolly shirt from 007 uk store.
Since I ordered them at 7am on the release day, I've heard nothing.
They've also not responded to emails, not like them
bit concerned they added them for sale but had no stock delivered , my hopes are diminishing ☹️
I've ordered quite a bit of stuff from the 007 UK store and always had great customer service and no problems at all. Hopefully this is just a slight hiccough and you'll get your stuff soon!
Hi gents. I spoke to the store today in the uk . They said that the stock has just arrived today and will go out in the next few days. They are also shipping from within the uk.
It's hard for me to believe that they are truly limited. It would be unwise for Danner to kill the golden goose. I understand that the packaging might a (limited) license issue, but the shoe itself is their own, old design.
Connolly reissued the shirt along with the launch of the 007 collection, even though it was supposed to be limited run. I hope Danner will reissue them in the near future, because I wanted to see the movie first and then decide if I am ready to buy the whole commando outfit ;)

Huckberry is live now with their stock of 50 pairs - https://huckberry.com/store/danner/category/p/71959-007-tanicus
Already almost sold out after minutes.
Kind regards,
Craig
It went live on Huckberry about 5 minutes early. The sizes pretty much went OOS from smallest to largest---8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 11, 10, 10.5, 11.5. and 12.
As of now only size US13 left.
Edited: Now completely sold out.

Success but not over till it ships!!!

I got through at 3:55pm and 8s and 8.5s were already gone.
Had the same outcome with a pair in my size JTM. Very disappointing again. This whole release is been a pretty awful experience.
The Uncrate boots didn’t come with the passport case but they did include the keychain.
It appears it's a 007store "exclusive", oooooooooooh

...so any word on the End Clothing drop? Last chance 🤞
The whole issue around these boots is an absolute disgrace. Fans missing out due to scumbags wanting to make a fortune….

Check it out, you won’t be disappointed

If anyone has any questions let me know.
Mine too 💪
Mine are to arrive tomorow. I was originally going to keep them or sell them at cost but I’m also paying off a wedding… that resale is wild
Look you have your reasons, but poor form. A lot of fans have missed out on the initial drops of these and it’s the resellers, just looking to make a profit, who are making it impossible to pick them up at all!
Says the guy who took bids on this forum during the sale of his tom ford spectre morocco tie that he ended up selling for over $500.
Members talk.
Don't be a hypocrite. That too is bad form.
And how do you know the details on that transaction from several years ago triple seven, who only joined us Feb this year? Anyway there’s a difference between taking bids and accepting someone’s high offer. I’m sorry.

Fair point-to be clear I originally announced it on here well before the Ebay resells popped up, and only after I was forced to buy a size that may not fit.

I ordered the boots at 9am from U.K. store, only contact I had was that they acknowledged my change of address.
im hoping that they’re just awaiting the shipment to arrive. They were for sale far earlier than danners stock was.
