Pictures (very large, not cropped) at http://tyedyeboy.net/pics/suits
Modeled by yours truly. My suit and Monee's fit just fine. The material isn't the canvas of the real suit, but will serve even better. It's much much lighter, and will be reasonably comfortable in the Atlanta heat.
ISSUES/PROBLEMS
- On the left shoulder is a few pockets, which I demonstrated in one of the pictures. We may be able to remove them, or sew over them. This can be done pretty easily.
- The middle flap might be a tight squeeze, and it may necessitate removing the chest pockets. This won't be so easy, but not drastically difficult.
- You can see just below my collar on the left is a dull patch. This is a blank velcro nametag. It can be removed easily, if we want to, or thre tags can be decorated somehow.
- Not exactly a problem, just worth noting. The hip pockets aren't pockets, they're just openings into the suit. It wouldn't be a problem to go without jeans underneath, but be careful, you'll essentially have three flys. Also, it makes for easy handjob access.
BEFORE WE CAN GET TO WORK
- What do you want to do about the pockets above? Monee suggests removing them. On the chest pocket, I note that we can sew over them, as we're all more likely to use the thigh pockets.
- Nametags: They aren't "canon," but might be useful with those of us that are new. Do we want them?
- PICS! We need better pics of the front flap, or at least we need to know how many buckles each needs.
Monee and I are going to be hitting the fabric store shortly to get a few yards of cloth for this, as well as the strapping, the thread for the patches, and some basic tools for them. The faster we have decisions on this, the better.
