Belt
« on: February 22, 2012, 09:12:47 PM »
I feel like I'm making to many topics about costumes  :-[

This is a funny question, I would like to know at about what level do you wear your belt?  I am ordering my belt right now and I want to know what size I have to order.

thanks

What Sarge said...it should fit at your natural midsection,  not where your jeans stop.  ;) 
Kind of like this:

Ok thanks, that's what I thought but I wanted to be sure!

I had to take some measurements for my Obi, I guess it's pretty much the same thing then

There probably are, I went with Correlian myself though because there belts are just awesome.  You can probably find cheaper one's on ebay.  If you want to take a shot at making your own, there are a few helpful leather workers who could give you some pointers who frequent this site.

Keep an eye on ebay, or make it yourself.  If you can make a saber you can make a belt, its pretty easy.

though last one i made I got lazy and just ordered precut strips of leather instead of buying a side and cutting it myself

Make sure when you measure you measure with your tunic and Obi on.  They add a lot to your waste.  I made that mistake and m custom made belt is a bit tight.  I sucked it up for awhile then I decided to get INSANITY and just lose a few inches.  :D

Custom belts are very easy to make.  Mine cost about $100 and that included everything from leather to buckle, to tools and stain.

Yeah the problem is that I don't really have the time to make one and for now I would prefer just buying one.  I was curious if there was anywhere else.

And just a little question, when ordering from corellian imports, do we have to select the "belt" shipping or leave it like it is?  Because the shipping it says is about $18 but if I change it for "belt" it's $45.  That's a lot more expensive so.. that's why I would buy less expensive if possible.

I will take a look on Ebay, hoping to see better quality than costumebase but at a good price.

EDIT:  There's a few belts but I'm not sure about the quality, and most of them are brown.  At least I found some food capsules really cheap :)

Since the quality is that great, I guess it has a good resell value?  (we never know!)

And for the shipping, I'm in Canada that's why it's more.  But $45 dollars is expensive, the total will be $210 :(

Edit: I just bought it from corellian imports

I'm bumping this to ask something else.

People who ordered from Corellian imports, how much time did it take to get your belt?  Mine wasn't in stock and I just want to know if it will take a month or less than that.

My custom imperial knight belt took slightly less than two months to be delivered. Try emailing Them to see if there's anything they can do to expedite it. As I said before,They are top notch guys and the quality is outstanding. Good luck
