I just wanted to give my thanks to BATNINJA for my new vest he did for me!!
It is truly the best vest I have ever had and the material he used is second to none.
you may notice he did a custom job on the velcro to fit my MAN of WAR armor.

I appreciate it, guys! Glad you like 'em.
I only wish I had some more of that TDH material, *ahem*, BobaFettish, *cough cough*...
:)
Very nice, looking good!
Holy !!
Looks real nice, color and texture are best i've seen yet. Thats one mighty fine vest you have there DarthMiller
Well done Batninja, you ever do another run be sure to let me know
Lets see the rest of that shot with the armor on bro.
Hey BN..I'll post pics soon...I don't have my camera with me.....:doh
BUT this is really the best Soft-part of my Fett I own ....THANKS BN!!:thumbsup
Are you doing a Run of these...????
here is a pick of my BATNINJA vest with my armor
How much did the vest cost you?
looks awesome!!
The vests were $75 apiece, using the TDH-approved material. I'm currently out of this fabric, and I'm looking for a close match until another run is made.
wat is that shiny material called?
The fabric is called 'tackle twill', and is used to put numbers and players' names on sports jerseys. More info can be found here:

Unfortunately, this fabric cannot be bought 'off the shelf', and therefore had to be special-ordered (even the color is considered a 'special' color, I think). I've E-mailed BobaFettish, who has been the contact for fabric orders in the past. Hopefully, he'll put up a new fabric order here soon, as I do not have the contact info.
Awesome, very accurate looking:suprise
Batnija,
Do you make these in basic sizes or do you take measurements from people?
Just top notch... after I got to see one in person, I knew I had to have one!!!
I have three basic sizes: M (38-40), L (42-44), and XL (46-48 ). In other words, if you wear a Large T-shirt, then a Large vest should fit you fine. I’m using 1 ½” Velcro for the closure, so there is plenty of ‘wiggle’ room for individual size adjustment.
I do not add strap-holes or Velcro to the vest, as many people have different preferred attachment methods. These alterations can be done by most any local seamstress or alterations shop.
I think this material and Vest are SPOT-ON....:thumbsup :thumbsupQuote:

Oh Boba Fettish...I think it's time for another run of this material.:D
My vest is the only thing I think I need to upgrade to the screen accurate material.
Congrats on such a stunning peice.

Batninja, do you make ESB vests also? Because I am pretty sure the vest material for the ESB is quite different from the ROTJ material. The ESB doesn't have that "shine" to it, like the ROTJ. Am I mistaking, or is this true? But anyhow, do you make ESB vests? Thanks.
I'm not too familiar with the ESB version. Maybe someone with some experience can chime in here, though.
Okay, thanks.
I've received several PMs from people who either have some TDH material or material of their own, who want a vest. If you would like, I can sew these for you at $50 a vest (shipping included), if you send me your material.
PM me for details!
Anyone able to find an online fabric store that has tackle twill?
I'd like to chime in here and add that if your lucky enough to get one of Bat Ninja's vests go for it! I've accually got two of these and they really exceeded my expectations.
i just finished putting armor on my new batninja vest . it is sweet .

im concerned though . does it look like i need my collar armor to be just a tad bit widder ?
Wow, that vest looks really nice. As far as the collar, the only thing I could think of is that it looks a little small. Just a little. But that's an easy repair. The only other thing I might suggest is replacing the center diamond piece. It looks fine as is, it just looks a little small and kind a little out of place...it could be my over active imagination though.Quote:

Very Talented
This Bat Ninja is.
Looks superb. Something you would expect from him.
I got mine yesterday and it is great. Well done and very professionally sewn. Great work Eric! I would highly recommend these to anyone needing a vest. :thumbsup :thumbsup
