As discussed the gloves are far from plain they have several seam line's 2 which are along the edges of the thumb
On 8/8/2018 at 12:36 PM, GDMorti said:- As you've already mentioned regarding the gloves, I'm pretty certain that they are white leather too. Which would make sense as all the other officers in the First Order use leather gloves. I know that there arent many references available for this costume but will have a dig around and see if I can find something which shows the gloves. I would imagine that they are plain-backed with no decorative stitching on the back of the palm, like all other gloves in TLJ.

There is a seam running from the side of the index finger back to around the thumb, but as Kris noted, that detail would not matter for basic submission. They're standard men's glove length... approx an inch past the start of the wrist, in length.
Finished... these are my gloves.

Sorry for delay, but have a very busy work moment for me... my pants.
On 8/14/2018 at 4:03 AM, kman said:Looking closely at other references, they're all 90 degree corners. Sometimes there is some sag in the upper part that makes them appear more pointed from some angles, but the fabric itself should be 90 degrees. If you lay yours flat, how does the angle look? The right leg does not appear to be sagging down in a way that would explain the acute angle of that corner. But if you show it flat and it truly is a good 90 degree angle, and I'm wrong, and nevermind. But I don't think this is the case.

Don't worry, all suggest are welcome, I have forgot to put the image of my pants on the bed ... soon as possible I put it!

The left leg is better than the right leg, but still not ideal. I wouldn't have mentioned this if they were both like the left leg.
Compare to the onscreen example you provided (lightened for easier detail):
Thanks, I'll do my best

Where did you get your gloves?
They are in progress by me and a florentine artisan... bu at the moment there are holidays in Italy

Thanks Carlos, I have seen but I'm working around to make it (I hope better) because I don't like the zigzag.
Thanks for your support

Thanks for your support.
1) For the gloves I'm working around.
2) For the pants, as I've mentioned over on my FO General TLJ costume thread, my angle is 90 degree. There is an "arc" under because I have a large quadricipe and it's the only way to support and fix the flare on parade without waving like a flag... Is not cool. It's a trick of us tailors.
3) For the holster un the back I have maked a loop with a pin because it's regolable (in winter or in summer the under clothes are different and I can get or lose weight) and for this reason it's absolutely fix when I walk on parade. Velcro is good but only for the stand up photo, it is not pratical in use. Other solution is make a hole to the belt on the back, but for me it's absolutelly not good
4) For the tunic I have decided to use single eye hooks because the double hooks will be more visible on closure of the yoke. If I use the double hooks I must put them more inside the yoke to hide them, so the yoke don't will be close perfect and when I walk on parade it will move. Double hooks are perfect for uniform like Hux or Liutenant because one hook go to left and the other on the right.
5) Yes, the shoulder strap is lit bit small than belt. The belt is 2,4" (in CRL is request from 2" to 3") and the sholder strap is 2". I have make it lit bit small because in other case would be too much.
I hope to have answered to question or doubts, and if I forgot something please remember me... I'm sorry if I'm not fast on reply but I have a busy moment on work
I rest available
As request, this is my holster

Sorry if I could not answer soon but I was at work ... this is a very busy month for me.
Well:
- I got the hat pin on Etsy by TheShortSupply'
- I got the blaster on Etsy by MakerLabStore
- I got the belt from Philoprops
- I had the boots made by my best shoemaker.
- I made tunic, trousers, holster, hat and rank bands
- At the moments of the photo my pants was relaxed because I participated in a conventions and parade under the sun at 36°C. The angle is 90 degree. There is an "arc" under because I have a large quadricipe and it's the only way to support and fix the flare on parade without waving like a flag... Is not cool. It's a trick of us tailors.
- The gloves no have ornamentation or dath on the back of the hand
- I did make the boots as they are worn and approved in CRL for Liutenant/Captain or for Colonel/Major or for General. They have all a seam on the back and it's the only way to have them in leather because from the calf to the ankle in profile there is naturally an arc that the leather originally not have when I fold it around the calf. It remains space below which can only be removed by cutting and sewing. Is not possible to stretch the real leather so much... I think.
As requested:
These are my gloves
my boots
If I forgot to reply something, please remember me.

Hi everybody,
I know that around this uniform there is a heated discussion and it was not easy to name the topic, but I refer to him.
I understand that the main problem is how to put it in CRL, because the same tunic is for an admiral on TFA... I think that only the rank bands can determine the rank and the color uniform depends on the role that the officer have... like the black and olive imperial officer.
Any your opinion or suggestion are welcome and I'm available for questions.

Hi everybody, I'm Francesco from Italy ID11611 and I'm part of Italica Garrison with my Staff Officer.
This is my my First Order Security Bureau and I'm proposing it to be a part of CRL.
Any your opinion or suggestion are welcome and I'm available for questions.
There are no many picture of it but I think that they are sufficient for the uniform... but not for the gloves.
I think that they are normal plain cotton parade gloves, so I have used them in the pictures... but maybe they are in leather. I'm working to find them (it's not easy) or I think to make them but I have no reference. Do you have any suggest or picture?
Thanks for your support

MazCave holster isn't belt complete... For communicator you can ask to MakerLabStore On Etsy. He has a kit
https://www.etsy.com/it/listing/597865770/star-wars-bundle-se-44c-communicator?ref=hp_rv but if you ask a custom order I think there is no problem for him
