So I'm going to make a valiant attempt at building Captain Andor's outfit for the release of the movie and I thought I'd start collecting ideas/photos/research now about it. Below are the photos I've accrued from the meager shots we have at the moment:
Aiming to do this outfit:
Coat: No idea where to begin with this, fjackets.com has a listing for the Andor coat, but I'm wary since they only have shots from the trailer.
Shirt: As has been previously reported elsewhere, the shirt style is very similar to the Han ESB shirt, though in more of a tan rather than white. Suggestions on patterns/templates/sources?
Thinking about just getting the cotton twill version from here, since Magnoli's got color options ^^
Pants: Cargo pants? Though definitely not standard cargo pant material, also, from the shots, it looks like the lower leg pockets are fairly thin.
Boots: Boots were on display at the celebration, but all the photos I've seen of them basically show me that they're boots, with some form of leather spats with a fancy buckle on it.
Gun: Looks like at least the basis of this has already been hammered down here, of course, it's just working out the modifications to make it
Belt: Looks to be a tan/brown British PLCE webbing belt flipped inside out with the rolling pin buckle (thanks, lonepigeon!)
Looking for suggestions, best ideas, where to move from here, newbie to the whole costume building shenanigans
Imgur album with plethora of research photos
Edit (8/16): Belt added, shirt options added, theories regarding cargo pants
