Inspiration: To be honest it was Batman in a Lamborghini that inspired me to start doing events as Captain America. I was already doing charity work and toy drives in my actual uniform but it is more fun as the Cap.
How long: Two months including the shield.
Cost: The cost of the suit, minus the helmet and jump boots, was $560.47 ($445.84 in materials, $114.63 shipping). The shield was $145.09 materials, $73.06 shipping for a total of $218.15.
Tips: Using a work suit and a pair of pants as a base actually increased the amount of effort required. It would have been easier if I could have found the Cotton HBT in blue.
Special Thanks to all the other Captain America’s that came before and to those that were working concurrently. I even thank UD Replica’s for closing the sale of their excellent TFA suit. If they still had the suit for sale I wouldn’t have been forced to make this.
This and most of my other Captain America stuff is located:
