TuluThunder, I agree with MadBlake; I'll admit I haven't done as much research as you have on the boots, but the second ones definitely seem more "Mad Max" to me! Can't really put my finger on why but I'd definitely go with the second ones there. MadBlake, you're set up is looking fantastic...

MadBlake, thanks a ton for posting that video! Going to be incredibly helpful!

There are a few SADF M83s on eBay right now, but I'm worried about the quality/smell. Also the airsoft replicas, while not as accurate, are more modular I understand? If I go that route, I'll probably get a black one and paint it as someone else here as done. Don't know yet!

Lots of info on this jacket in the thread thus far :) one guy here bought one too and you can read his impression of it! Www.madmaxcostumes.com/jacket has an awesome rundown of various options too, including the south beach leather jacket, and lists pros and cons of each. Great resource!

Just received some amazing parts from a couple of fantastic members of this thread, Karol and Fabian :D Will post photos tonight. I think I've found a jacket option that will work (with some work) on a budget as well. Looking forward to posting updates! Karol, also looking forward to purchasing...

Really brilliant MadBlake! Looking forward to more photos!!

Man, that makes me think you should just paint the buttons purple and make it a SNES styled N64. That would be awesome. Looking forward to seeing how this turns out!

I saw one of the combat vests on eBay, but it looked like it was in pretty rough shape. Correct color though, but I'm thinking I'll probably just do something that looks similar if I can't track down one of the real ones in decent condition. I'm going to start checking out thrift stores to see...

Really a gorgeous jacket, Fabian! It would almost be a shame to put it through the weathering! Definitely near the top of my list as I consider sources for the costume I'm working on, if I can come up with the dough.

Awesome jackwabbit! Looking forward to seeing the progress! I'm starting a Fury Road costume as well, have an order in with Karol for a shoulder pad which will be my first part! Gonna be an exciting few months :)
