Joining Seams

[the eldest]

Have finally made a start on my feet. I have made duct tape dummies of the shoes upto the top of my calves.
I will be latexing the whole thing like a long boot.
Entry and exit will be by a slit at the back, but I'm looking for a way to keep the back together once on.
Zip, Velcro etc.
How does everyone else deal with this?

Your thoughts guys?

I have gone to my local fabric store and installed zippers on two suits. Get the heavy duty Metal zipper!
Then go get some hemp string and a large sewing needle. You will also need a thimble to push the needle and the hemp string through the suit.The hemp string is nice because after it is sewn youcan hit the entirething with supr fglue. The hemp string absorbs the super glue really well!
