Started this a bit ago..
Right now I have
The Shirt:
This is actually my second shirt. I had to make the first one myself and I made the image way too small. Upped the size on this one. I actually really want a real original shirt and have tried searching all over the internet and locally for one but they seem to be extremely rare :-/ I'd toss this one in a minute for an original. I had to make this by printing it out onto iron on paper. It's actually in 4 sections because of the paper size limitations.
The Vest: I searched thrift stores again and again to find this. It's not an exact match but its close.
The Shorts: Yep, I made them from dress pants purchased at a thrift store. Cut them down and sewed them up. Made the stickers on my computer and printed them out.
The Shoes: Got these just for the costume and like them a lot. I call them my fun shoes. Ha ha. Need to get purple laces for them. Will probably buy a second pair so I don't have to change out the laces all the time.
The Jacket: Another thrift store find. It took a long time to find this but I finally hit it close this week. The jacket is a BOSS brand jacket. I doubt its the same brand from the film, it might be.. I don't know, but its pretty close if it's not. The jacket in the film often appears to be red or even orange/red. I'm thinking I'll dye this yellow jacket with red RIT dye and I should come up with a nice somewhere in between color. I've removed the "BOSS" logo from the front and back of the jacket. You can see the logo just above the pocket in the photo. Ted's jacket has no logos as far as I can tell.
I still need proper sweat pants to wear under the shorts, the watch, the red and gray socks, and the friendship bracelets. I've purchased a wig for the costume that my wife has been helping me trim down and style.
