Buying Kirk’s Gold Uniform

[Methuselah Flint]

Hi guys,

Is this one of the more authentic looking ones to buy?

Also, anyone any idea where I can buy online the style of boot in the UK?

Thanks.

Before someone swoops in to assert that it should really be avocado green instead of gold... I notice the arrowhead patch doesn't have quite the shimmery sheen or texture of the ones on the series. There is a risk of low quality if going for these mass-produced (and I suspect unlicensed) garments. Sometimes these sellers stop fulfilling orders and end up getting shut down by ebay.

And this one is based out of Singapore so...?

Any better options...?

Having never actually bought anything like that...? I know that Anovos is being sued right now, due to their constantly slow delivery so, they are debatable.

Shadowdale's been around a long time but, the site looks like it hasn't been updated in years:

J. Kerezma (sp?) is also an older costume maker:

There are so many knockoffs out there (some are decent, some horrid) and the prices range from cheap to HOLY $H1T!

Looks fine to me. Caveat emptor, don't trust your money on ebay for something like this unless you can 'afford' to lose the money if the seller gets shut down or the costume is not as "high quality" as you hope.

As for Anovos, if they currently have it in stock; they are licensed to produce screen-accurate costumes. Don't preorder something that's not ready to ship.

I guess trousers - any black ones should do.

The Anovos velour line is by far the best looking; other ones always mess up the delta and the rank braid, which drives me nuts.

But they're almost impossible to get for whatever reason. Maybe somebody is reselling new ones on eBay.

Yeah. That's never usually the issue. The boots can be fairly closely duplicated too without too much effort.

 

[Kor]

The trousers should be shorter than regular trousers, and have that flare at the bottom.

Tucked around perhaps?
