How do you put this thing on?


Recommended Posts

So!

 

I got all the cloth parts and soft goods from a seamstress. For the most part they did a great job! The boots need work because while the foot part fits perfectly, the part that comes up my calf is just a touch small. but that's not my big problem.

 

I figured out how to put on the jump suit, the flack jacket, gloves, helmet sock baklava thing, cumberbun and pockets. all that fits perfectly! However ...

 

How do you put on the ... the ... what's it called? the white ... crotch guard ... thing? It's got velcro on the top of the white part, a strap, and a square patch at the end of a long strap that goes between the legs and over the flap on the jump suit. then (I think) it goes under the back of the cumberbun. after that ... I just have no idea where the velcro attaches to.

 

Am I missing a part? Did the seamstress miss a patch of velcro? Am I just looking in the wrong place to attach it?

 

I know it's a silly question. But how does one put this darn thing on?

 

And ... one other question because I didn't think of this until putting the outfit away.

 

What's the best way to store your gear?

I think you are talking about the cod piece. Is there velcro sown to the front of your jumpsuit near where the codpiece should sit? Or on the inside of the cumberbund? And the velcro at the end of the strap should attack to velcro on the back of your jumpsuit, or on the flak vest. Haven’t got pictures at the moment but I’ll grab some when I get home.

 

As for storage, I use the smaller version (I think 24 gallons) of the Stanley box.

There should be a piece of Velcro on the inside of the bund or vest, I don't think there is a requirement for lancer. Mine goes to the bund where the td is. Velcro makes a sticky Velcro for fabric, if you're not into sewing.

Hello,

 

Is the piece that goes around the crotch the same material as the cummerbund and pouches? Hard to tell from photos.

 

Thanks.

The cod piece is the same material as the cummerbund, different than the pouches.;)

Ok. The pouches are duck cloth—the cummerbund and crotch piece are made of what? Please and thank you.

My bund and cod are made from mercerized cotton.

 

Regarding the OP, this is a thread I made to illustrate how you can put everything together. It's not the only way, but it's one way to do it.
