  1. Hi Adam, 

     

    Depends on your budget and where you are in the world (international shipping can be a pain in the butt). I got my boots from another member, who got them from AntiguaHouse on Etsy. (Don’t let the name fool you: this ain’t stuff for your beach party.) They’re based in Ukraine, by the way. 
     

    Here’s the link:

    A word of warning about these boots: they’re not the most comfortable. I had to get insoles and wear thick socks with them (otherwise, it feels like you’re trudging through Siberian permafrost year-round)!

    I just did a troop this weekend at a fair celebrating a city's anniversary in my Imperial Staff Officer, flanked by two Stormtroopers, and was called a German and Nazi multiple times by some very drunk folks. After the eighth time, I suited down and wrangled.

     

    Some dumb teenager called me a Hydra agent at a May the Fourth event. *facepalm*

  3. Need some information to help me out, please.
     
    I'm looking into getting an Imperial Officer Uniform (black) and want to know which rank options exist from the OT. Is the graphic in the first post the representation?
     
    And please give me information on the black uniform — I'm not totally knowledgable on the specifics and want to learn.
     
    Thanks.

  4. My only concern with this costume now being a part of the Legion is trooping. How the heck would you be able to troop in that costume without everyone in a five-foot radius shooting you dirty looks?

    This doesn’t scream “I’m a Star Wars costume”, because it is far too close to Third Reich stuff.

    This does say “Star Wars”, because everyone has seen the OT (I hope).

    The former you probably could not wear at any respectable con, the latter is fandom kosher.
