Question for making the cummerbund

Is it just one big sheet of duck cloth just with velcro added and lines stitched in?

 

Or is it two separate pieces sewn together? I am going to print out a big a sheet with measurements and take it to a tailor to have it made.

Ok, there's 2 different ways you can build the cummerbund:

 

1. Big rectangle of cloth with the lines/velcro stitched in and a separate cod piece that attaches to the flak vest (with velcro or snaps - screen accurate)

2. Big rectangle of cloth with the lines/velcro stitched in but with cod attached (most common form)

 

There's a template floating around in the gallery (I think) that has some general measurements to assist your tailor.

Where is the gallery? I have not found it yet.

What's your chest & waist size in inches please? If anyone has similar measurements they could give you the proportions.

 

(Sorry I know that sounds a bit too personal and weird)

I would use that pattern loosely, you don't want the X on the Velcro. And you may find that did pattern gives you camel toe issues, really everyone is different so things will always need to be tweaked. The rib spacing i would do at 25mm (1")
