Dredd movie (2012) costume parts identification

[Gary Pahls]

So after seeing the movie for the first time today (I absolutely loved it and it was nice to see a movie nowadays that wasn't "green screen"; Star Wars I'm talking to you) I noticed emblems in the leather under the shoulder pads. I then watched the featurette video on the gear and in the interview with costume designer Michael O' Connor. Behind him there are the jackets with and without the armor then a shot of all the jackets lined up. First I noticed the eagles appeared to be wet molded to leather on the right shoulder of the jacket and on the left side where general in law enforcement a department patch would be was the Judge's badge wet molded to that arm in leather. The jacket looks pretty standard just with these leather "Patches" sewn onto them. Also there is a sceen where an artist is sewing the plastic eagle to the shoulder pads which shows a good shot of the material front and inside. This video is already posted but I'll post it again but this time in youtube

Aside from a couple accent pieces they added it looks pretty close and more comfortable with the perforation in the legs. I've been riding for a long time and leathers that allow air to circulate are a god-send:love

Close but the perforations are on the wrong piece of leather, They should be on the outside panel.

I'm pretty sure these are the motorcycle pants worn by Urban in Dredd. The film compsny may have made some slight modifications but these look like the base pants.PERFORATED MOTORCYCLE ARMOR LEATHER PANTS PANT 32w 30i | eBay

The jacket and pants are the least of my worries...I've been trolling the costuming pages begging someone to sell the armor molds (chest molds & eagle shoulder crest) to those of us that have limited costuming skills. The work these guys are doing on here is amazing.

The grenade pouch looks an awful lot like an old police radio holder.

Are those cable ties on his belt ? ( wrist ties ? ) Is the grenade a stock item or was it custom made for the movie ? Pardon my ignorance but what is the circular thing on their belt next to their buckles ?

Wrist restraints yes...no too sure bout the grenade but the circular pouch held a 'sticky' directional charge. Someone correct me with the right term if you know it, thanks.

 

[paulcarson]

Thanks ! I'm glad I wasn't seeing things . :lol

Anyone have any ideas on his forearm computer thing or whatever you want to call it? iArm maybe?

Sounds right..LOL! I don't think there's anything affordable in a flexible LCD functional screen...but what if we slide in a stiffer iTouch? :lol

 

[paulcarson]

I've noticed a folding knife on his belt. Do we have any knife gurus here ?

 

[Nobby]

good spot!
I'm gonna have to go look that one up............

 

[Nobby]

OMG, that one's a toughie!
I've now seen thousands of knives and not one is even close

 

[Gary Pahls]

And great shot of the holster! Been looking for a good one for weeks! Hmm and whats with the radio in the one shot?

 

[paulcarson]

Found another view of the holster. Still can't get clear enough pics ( for my eyes) to see its true shape.

 

[paulcarson]

was looking at the gear video just now and found this ...

 

[baron von blondle]

here's a couple more shots of the holster, with weapon and without...

 

[Gary Pahls]

Wow, it looks just like a FOBUS but just with some mods


Edit: on second thought, I just looked at some pics of FOBUS and this is more then likely a custom job with FOBUS as reference, in my opinion. Plus I see we add x2 of those expensive buckles like on the vest

Anderson has the knife as well. The blade can be seen very clearly when she is captured and the guy is going through her gear. He actually holds the knife and looks it over.
