The jacket, harness, belt and glove are all hand made by a woman in Italy.
All leather and customer shark skin neoprene.
It’s not off the shelf but made to order.
That’s the most expensive part of the whole thing, coming in about £1200
The knives I’m getting are all resin cast off the same models used in the film.
Having done some molding and casting myself, it’s all about time and materials.
That’s £150 for 4 knives alone
Boots are £130 to start
Guns will probably be about £250
I’ll save some money doing the arm myself as a resin cast is $300 but mine will be about £70
Great costume. Nice that you want to stay as true to the original as possible and use leather and neoprene - no glueing foam!! Is it for a special occasion CC London/Manchester? My kid is really into this stuff and after seeing him develop his costume last year, it really gave me an insight into how long these costumes take to make and how intricate they can be. Have fun!
That’s the first TikTok I’ve ever watched. Had no idea it was so expensive (though not surprised as it obviously is a step up from the junk Halloween costumes most people see!)
Interested to watch though and great work (both on the costume and raising money!)
What part of the costume are they for? Belts? I presume the jacket comes with the appropriate fastenings. Also, was there a reason you chose Dritz, staying true to the original or what was available?
