Got my Jack Sparrow Coat


El Pirata

Recommended Posts

You look great, EP! The coat is awesome! Is it really necessary to drag it around on the beach, or put lemon juice on it to wear it down? Call me crazy, but can't a pirate have nice new duds once and a while? It will get worn down (from use) eventually....

Anyway, you look very nice. :)

Too late, I already bleached it slightly. I think it looks even better than before. I'll post pics tomorrow.

Lad,

Ye need not be "agin" a fine pirate frock. Where it everywhere and time will take care of the rest. Enjoy a fine gatherins without a care for the wear. But if ye rush it, ye will have less time to enjoy it. Mark my words.

Grea' coat! You look a handsome pyrate, it does well by you! It looks pretty authentic with only minor details off in reproducin', but you wear the look wif pride, mate. Good choice!

While I usually agree that I don' like fading stuff out and makin' it look worn, for costumes, it's different. I'd've tried washin' it and layin' out in the sun for a bit to beat it up, then fade it with really mild bleach, fabric fader or other.

Post a photo of the back! Yes! Please?

Nice livin' room, by the way... ;)

Here are ne new and faded pics. I think it looks better than before. All I need now are a few signs of wear and a few small holes and fraying cloth:

It's made from a heavy cotton. Very coarse thread much like that of the times. The inside liner is a fine thread cotton.

I filled the bathtub with scalding hot water and a little bleach then let it soak a for a few hours and let it air dry.
