I'm almost embarrassed to ask on this site. Everyone has such elaborate costumes that are so well done.
I'm putting together my costume for the year. My friends and I always have a huge costume party and this year features the sequel to last year's Slenderman scavenger hunt in which Slenderman chases party-goers through the night as they hunt for the "Eight Pages". My friend, Phil, wears the costume and he was on the front page of last year's Portsmouth Herald (source) for his part in the parade (image below).
Anyway, that was just to hint at how seriously we take our once-a-year tradition.
I'm assembling my costume this year, and I want to be Khan from the new Star Trek movie, Into Darkness. But, as everyone probably knows, the official Khan shirts from Anovos are sold out. I've been scouring the internet and had to settle on this alternative (source Kranson uniform):
Question 1: How can I add the black, slightly-reflective, insignia? Any thoughts?
Question 2: where can I get appropriate pants?
And...
Question 3: where can I get similar boots?
If I could've had the official Khan shirt, I'd be willing to spend the cash for the official pants, but since the costume won't be perfect anyway, I'm looking for cheap alternatives. Same goes for the boots. Has anyone assembled a cheaper version of this costume?

so I had to genderswap him. Still thinking of possible wigs... at least they have the exact eyecolour as lenses available here....with strength.
