My Indy Costume (pics intensive)

Okay guys, here's my Indiana Jones costume and the story behind each of the pieces... (note, the jacket is going to be arriving in a few days)


Found at Disney World in the Pirates of the Carribean store, cut off the fabric strap and replaced it with a thinner black one to resemble the movie.


Purchased from Western Stage Props for only 50 bucks, a genuine Australian model Bullwhip.


Found in the gift shop of "Revenge of the Mummy" at Universal Studios as is. Its a cap gun, made of metal and wood, probably will not be on the shelves very long, its only a matter of time before someone does something stupid with one of these...


The belt is just a regular leather belt I found at a thrift store and the pistol holster is one I dug up at an Army Surplus store.


The shirt is custom made from a regular tan shirt, I added the shoulder straps to make it into Indy's shirt, the pants are just brown dress pants that I'm going to age.




Found this baby in a hat store in St. Augustine, roughed it up, wore it around town (even in the rain) and formed the brim into a more Indy-like shape.

great pieces.....but wouldn't it have made more sense to pose in the costume pieces?

No worries, those are soon to follow, I wanted to give you guys some close-up pics to show off the individual parts before I show the entire thing. (also, my snap camera isnt great, so the full body probably wont look very good)

As requested...

Great looking costume!

Thanks man, I do what i can, haha.

Cool, great costume man.





"Snakes,why did it have to be snakes"

Thanks! I'm still not happy with the boots on this one though, they're black, when any self-respecting Indy fan knows that aint correct. Any suggestions for a budget-appropriate pair of kicks I can scour the earth for?

Awesome costume. Where in St Augustine did you find your hat? I'm up in Jacksonville...

Right up the road from the old fort, ya know the big shopping area by the Ripley's Believe it or Not! museum and the fountain of youth?

I'm twenty, thats why I set my Indy flick in 1924 so I dont have to fake Indy's age much.
