Ribbed Undersuit

[netslave]

The Ribbed Undersuit is a 'warm grey' (as described by the costume designer), and closely matches the color seen below. Ribs are roughly 1/8" wide.

Also has a mesh material on the armpits.

But un this Pic the mesh is in the wrong direction normalle it goes downwards.

You have to do it by your own

I know Jim Tripon has 1 that he's made...a few of us have ordered that one...

That's von Jim is nice but not accurate

Yeah, I'm hoping a more accurate one comes up for sale before I need it. Jim's (which is great) could be modified, but until we get better info from the movie, etc, it may not be any better anyways. The one thing I'm not great at yet is sewing.

Are people getting approved with Jim's Ribbed Undersuit?

Yep, Jim's is perfectly acceptable for basic.

Sister Margaret's Gasket Emporium is making the ribbed shirts as well (look them up on fb)

It's a lot more accurate, and appear to be much better made (no offense to Jim's Tailor), however they are a lot more pricey than Jim's.

Is that confirmed? I inquired a few weeks ago and he said he short was too intricate. Only a few were made for the 850 folks. BUT if it's on again, I'd gladly go with Sister Margaret.

I inquired last week and they were back to making them

That honeycomb fabric is "spacing fabric"...they used it on the DREDD (2012) vests, and a thinner version is used for a lot of sneakers.

Thanks for the post and the info about Sister Margarets!

I actually wrote Sister Margaret's about the undershirt. I recall a while back that they stated it will be a very limited production due to the complexity of the undershirt. This is what they stated.

 

 

"So the shore. What was seen was the 2nd shirt made. There is some edits to come and hopefully a good method can be reached to get closer to screen accurate while maintaining costs. Many of these are going for 501st approval so that's the end goal. To have zero issues w approval.

 

We are hoping to have an announcement near the end of Q1 for the shore. How many etc. given they are near 20 hrs of detail work the run may be limited. We'd love to add you to a list today but are being cautious not to overextend and provide real timelines. Hopefully that answers some questions:) So the end of Q1 hopefully an announcement will come"

Does anyone know if the undershirt is the same for the Tank trooper? The kits are the same, I ordered a set of armor from 850 and am trying to find the correct undershirt to go with. Considering the cost I don't want to have to get a different one if they are not the same.

 

Thank you.

Jim Tripon makes one in black for the tank trooper.

It would be awesome if someone could post a sewing tutorial here on the forums over making this under suit....

[PredatorMV]

Just as a heads up, the mesh material on the undersuit is only on the front side of the arm pit and only a small portion of it. On the back it has horizontal ribs like the arms. The vertical ribs only appear at the upper chest area where they show around the neck hole.

Thanks for the info, I've been doing my research to see if it would be possible to sew one of these up for myself... You don't think there' a chance you could do a little diagram up showing how much mesh fabric there should be on the shirt?
