Default Re: Viper Jacket Pattern For Those Interested

Plastic isn't really a good option for the buckles and in the end I don't think it would save that much money. As a costuming community the shortage is definitely something we need to find a solution for. The buckles are such an integral piece of the jacket that absolutely define the look. I've seen some knock offs (on some horribly produced jackets by a certain costumer of ill repute) that really take away from the look of the jacket.

Any idea where we could get them made? Alibaba?
