Robes

i make most of my own stuff....as kamizu pointed out rebel legion and 501st both have patterns you can use...a quick search can yield a variety of templates etc....my mandalorian style armor uses templates from the dented helmet, my battle robe uses a design of my own, my outer robe was bought from garb the world...

lol...i'm too tired at the moment....besides you're a wonderful researcher

if i can find some locally i may experiment with it....and depending upon the experiments i may coat my outer robe...then i can wear it just like a rain coat :woohoo:

The Jedi Mandalorian Keeper at yer service! *bows* :laugh:

I've used spray-on waterproofing as well as wash-in. They're OK but after a few rains it has to be re-applied. When I was in Indonesia during rainy season I thanked my lucky stars for my gore-tex because they don't sell the sprays over there.

Hmm...well I only bring it up because the robes often shown for Jedi would KILL me up here. Too heavy, to much fabric....It is far too humid to wear that much robes, and silk on top? No way..... So it would be nice to have a very breathable and light frabric that can repel water with a spray like the Aqua Armor. Shame it wears off so quickly though

I found a wealth of information on The Padawan's Guide.
