That all has to do with having it tailored. A lot of people don't get it custom fit and that causes a lot of bagginess

Just cut and dyed the pouches for the prototype! Just waiting on a few things in the mail so I can finish it up and send to Kevin Gossett so he can sew it up and add the resin pieces!

Here's a couple teasers of the belt! I'll post pics of the pouch progress soon as well! Waiting on some supplies for the harness so I'm stuck on it at the moment.

captainkyle10 will give you 10% off... basically gives you free shipping. Only one I know of at the moment that works.
Just finished taking an inch off the bottom of my jacket. Still trying to decide how to connect it to my pants and then connect the belt to the jacket. Snaps or velcro?

Just so everyone has an idea of how long they're running. I ordered a custom fit outfit directly from the cosplaysky website on September 18th, and my costume arrived today.
Looks pretty damned awesome and first very well, though it could be taken in in a couple of spots, and there are a couple of nitpicky issues I could mention, but overall I think it turned out better than I expected.
Very excited, will have to post pics later!

Looking great so far! Can't wait to get mine! By the way, out of curiosity, the belts are adjustable I assume?

Yes it will attach in the back via Velcro. Since everyone measures slightly different spots (and with our without their jacket on) we're going to include the Velcro and have the customer attach it themselves. I will post how to do it in the sale thread. This way everyone gets a perfect fit!

Couple of quick shots of the new costume:
.
Got a custom tailored one and am very glad I did. The jacket was just long enough that I'm tucking it in for now since its working for me, and the sleeves were the perfect length. Looks great with my King Arts Shield.
I will say that the more grayish leather parts don't bother me as much as I thought they would. They look a little more bluish than they seem to come out in in pictures. I will still paint them but I probably wait until after Halloween to do so I don't screw anything up before then.
I'll take some more shots with the gaiters once my Magnum Mach 1's have arrived!

Got my fabric in from cosplaysky to do the sleeve mod and they actually sent both the cordura and the stretch blue fabric. Hopefully I'll have time soon to work on it.

Lucky you!! Lol
And who all needs fabric? May be worth doing a bulk buy to save on shipping

Nice work! Sorry but don't the longer pouches look a bit too long? Not sure if that's b/c your prototype belt still needs to be stitched up. See below, the back pouches look like they're maybe an inch or less longer.

They will be slightly shorter than that pic once they're stitched. I used this pic as well for sizing reference. You can see that they're nearly a full "metal" piece longer. Which is around 1.25".
But I do agree they may still be a tad to long but that's a really easy fix! That's why I haven't started anyone else's until mine's done, that way changes can be made!

How is everyone attaching their jacket to their pants or belt to jacket besides the clips that were recommended?

They also sit a little lower in that pic, looking at the top of the pouches not lining up. If you line up the pouches, it's longer by somewhere around 1/2 the length of the metal bit.
