On your body.

I wore it today and a lady asked me if I was a stunt man lol

 

[benhs1898]

That's awesome!

 

[Sundowner]

Its mega comfortable and I think it looks good so why wouldnt I wear it huh.

The gloves are close enough for me for $20. I know the knuckles need to be bigger but not bad for costuming.

Here is a prop that I haven't seen anyone do yet.

where did you get the cap?

 

[Sundowner]

I had it custom made. There is an LA Clippers hat that is similar but its not the same. Turns out it was also a custom hat made for the production.

What kind of font was used for the 'LA' on the cap? BTW, you got a link to the gloves?

 

[Sundowner]

I'm not sure the font. I took several reference photos to the embroidery shop and they took it from there. I'll ask if the leather guy is willing to do any more gloves. He typically doesn't do them.

 

[mokidd]

Thanks for the info. The dude could make some good money if he decides to produce them.

Found some nice Glove replacements. Especially interesting for people from Europe. They are made in Germany and are available in many different colors.

Dorian, If you don't mind me asking, how much did the hat run?

Also, I've been on the hunt for Taupe Madisons... these things are tough to come by!

 

[Sundowner]

I had a few folks interested in the LA hat. I talked to the shop and if I can secure atleast 5 orders they'll do the hats for $20. They would take a week or so to do. Then I can quote shipping.

 

[benhs1898]

I'd take one! Also, is it adjustable or fitted?

BTW. Just bought the Madison's in white.

 

[Sundowner]

Fitted. I have an interest thread up HERE

Sweet, I can't wait to see the Madisons. You'll have to let me know how they fit!

 

[benhs1898]

NICE! Can't wait!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH.

Thank goodness this costume is almost finished for me because it's making me crazy stupid.

 

[rotsman09]

Nice! I may get the whites and try to dye them. Im also in on the hat! Im working on Drivers keychain now.

Also, watching the film again, has anyone brought up the upside down "V" by the bottom of the zipper? I don't think my jacket has that.

 

[Sundowner]

hahahahahaha

NICE! Can't wait!!!!!! AHHHHHHHH.

[rotsman09]

Wood stain would work.
