I was looking around for a Captain America suit to cosplay and i've stumbled on to this i havent seen much reviews from Killerbody aside from their $3000+ iron man suit and black panther helmet and eye of agamotto but I was wondering if anyone on the RPF have tried and seen this suit and can tell me what you guys think?

It's very small and likely won't fit. Plus you can find better fan made ones for less money.

I had one and it’s gorgeous in person. The details are really great. That being said if you have anything larger than a 32” waist and 40” chest you won’t be able to fit in it.

I sold mine bc I couldn’t squeeze into it. These are made for the “Asian marketplace” hence they are smaller.

For reference I’m a 42” chest with a 34” waist and 190lbs.

Does anyone know where to find a suit like this with the same quality from someone else with better fitting for "normal" persons ? I am extremely interested in one of these but it should fit especially for that price Thanks in favor

Check out RG Studios on Facebook, they do really nice work. Not sure if they have a run of suits on the queue or not

So...i caved and purchased the suit and i gotta say it kinda fits perfectly and the materials are pretty screen accurate and the shoulder and kneepads are velcroed urethane rubber downside is the sleeves, while my chest and waist fits almost like it was made for me the sleeves are a bit wide i might need to bulk up my arms before the next con lol

Always better to have the suit larger rather than smaller. Congrats on the fit.

So they only make this in one size?

Too bad, because it looks great.

Yes unfortunately it is one size only. I highly recommend it if you can fit it.

180#, 46" chest, 33" waist so based on what you said before it wouldn't fit me.

Yea you won’t fit. The pants MAYBE but I think 32” would be the closests that’ll fit. Chest no way. I’m hoping some vendor makes a licensed suit for Infinity War that is cut to “American sizes”

Yeah I have problems with a lot of costume pieces getting them to fit. Too often overseas vendors think "American sizing" = "Fat sizing" so anything that will fit me in the chest tends to hang like a bell around my waist.

When I had the jacket made for my Cap Rescue outfit I had to have the the company make it to custom measurements. That said, what they ended up sending me was one of the best fitting jackets I own.
