Thanks to “RLatex” for sending this. Very cool!
Yeah, I know, a REAL Blogger would go and find the photos to all the links. Bite me. 😉

Hey!
Enjoy your blog. I saw that you are interested in a latex Captain America costume. I have been doing some research for a prospective The Flash latex costume for myself and have some ideas for you that would probably be cheaper than a custom suit. Here goes:
1. Get a blue catsuit. The least expensive quality suit that I have found so far, is Invincible Rubber’s neck entry catsuit. They currently have 10-20% off sale ( I have the discount code, if you do not)

2. Get mask, gloves & shield from costume shop.

You could also find a blue latex hood and put a white “A” on it. You could also replace the fabric red gloves with latex ones (Blackstyle has them).

3. Order a sheet of red and a sheet of white latex (again Blackstyle has them), and use to create the red and white stripes around the abdomen and also for the white chest star.

4. For boots there are several options;
a: Knee-high red Hunter rubber boots (Blackstyle)

c. High top red boxing boots (Title Boxing)

Hope this helps! There should be a ‘rubber’ Halloween party. 🙂
