FYI, the original costume (with all the patches) is going up for auction at the Prop Store auction next month.

Bonger ski suit, but not certain about whether they were 60s or 70s. It seems like they were mentioned in an interview (Fantastic Films, Starlog...?).
Thanks for the auction pics. It is great to get a clear, studio lit look at this costume.
Hello. I'm still looking for any replica patches. My collection is slowly increasing but if anyone has made copies, I'm still interested.
Long term project, I know but I'm getting older. I'd like to wear that suit just once and the original went for $40K! Did I read that right,?
Thanks, Chris.

Its very hard to find like most a lot of those patches or the jackets which being Ski are in themselves expensive, I did although not accurate think about those euro tight puffa jackets that you can find quite cheap in the shops but its a big compromise.
I wish I had one of those fancy sewing machines that take an image and spit out a cool patch.
I have for a very long time done this..
Find images of the patch or photoshop etc then reverse image and print it out either at a tshirt shop on canvas or now with transfer paper at home. I did this to make club badges and later cosplay stuff. If you want to embellish you can sew over and with that sewing setting run a nice edge round it. A lot of badges were made in a similar way in the 80s.
I've been looking for my old flight jacket which was full of home made ones but its packed away somewhere.
Its a temp fix but you could make and replace with OG as you find them.
