I ordered all of my underarmor in anticipation

[optimusaint]

since im expecting a few boxes full of armor pieces in the next few days i went ahead and ordered all of the underarmor clothing for my suit. heres what i got:

now all i need is two visors, some LEDs, helmet padding, and a bunch of strapping and velcro (and the actual armor pieces, heh). i can get all of that locally for a decent price, so ill be picking those up this weekend.

edit: added a poll

 

[optimusaint]

please vote on the visor color! ive been trying to visualize the gold helmet with a smoke visor vs. the standard gold visor. i need advice

Love the shirt and pants and gloves and boots whered you get them proboboaly not my size.

 

[optimusaint]

i got everything from ebay. you guys really dont wanna see the prices though, cause i know a lot of you guys are young and dont have much money.

Yeah, but Finding underarmor is easy, Look in thrift stores for stuff.

is it just me or does the have the batman logo on it.

yes it has the batman logo on it. i was more concerned with the elbows, the abs, and the lower back. the rest of the jacket is covered by armor.

 

[callmemasterchief]

can we get some links to that stuff? That batman jacket is BADASS! Who are you ordering armoro from?

 

[jimcush]

Man - Those are some nice choices!

BTW: I'm not young & have the money - How much was the pants? LOL
And who was the seller? - perhaps they may have my size before the 25th!
Thx!

ok i was trying to avoid listing the ebay links, not because i dont want other people to get the same stuff, but because i was trying to minimize the number of "i wish" and "you paid THAT much?" posts on my thread. yes, i know they look cool, and double yes, i know i could have gotten some of the stuff cheaper, but they are exactly what i wanted as far as design in the areas that the armor doesnt cover. here goes:

Alpinestar gloves

Those pants look great! Good choice on under armor!

I'd be concerned about the armor fitting over that jacket, it seems like it might be kinda bulky... I guess no more so than motocross jackets.

Just finishing up some last parts for your kit to ship it tomorrow or monday.. I'll be sending it paint ready, so those visors, LED's and padding will have a nice home!

Can't wait to see yout suit completed... you're going to have a nice one!

im 6'3" and only weigh 145lbs. it wont be too bulky on my frame. im guessing that jacket will actually fill me out closer to Chief's real proportions.

Wow, you paid quite a bit for all of that...

[jimcush]

The pants are totally worth it - contacting the seller now - Thanks!!!

that's why i didnt wanna post the links. considering how much im spending on the armor itself, i want stuff that is going to compliment it it fully. this isnt just a pep armor im throwing together in 3 days for a halloween party

 

[Doom]

Hehe, I know I know, I just had to give you a little bit of a hard time...

I like all the stff you ordered, the only thing I don't like is the zipper on the front of the jacket... '

Otherwise, looks good.

yeah, it is a bit exposed. im hoping the surrounding leather covers it enough. if not, im going to cover it with leather or something.
