I saw that Evolution Props makes soft parts and want to know if they meet 501st approval. (I'm personally an ESB Fett guy and I know some stuff is not accurate/ acceptable)
I looked at the CRL for a ROTJ Royal guard and understand how the outer robe should look. The CRL shows a a tunic underneath the robe but Evolution makes shirt/ pants that are underneath, no tunic.
Is the material used by Evolution acceptable? I know certain materials are not.
I did recently registered here and searched for "Evolution Props" but I only saw one thread (about gloves). It said OK but I really want to be sure.
I hope some of you can give some advice. Thank you!

Re: Evoloution props robes?
Looks like the same stuff FP used to sell... not sure if there is a relationship or not there... anyhow, As with any soft parts costume you will want something that is taylored to fit you. Though generic sizes can be a quick solution, they don't always give the best look.
The fabric looks ok in the pictures I see listed on their site in a quick search.
If you do go with this costume, be prepared to do some modifications for proper fit to your body after you receive it though.... as with all soft parts costumes generic fit doesn't always translate well to everyone's body type.

Outer Robes are fine. But the pants is a no deal. Needs to be under robes.

Re: Evoloution props robes?
Thanks for the info!
I understand about having to tailor to specific body type. I had to do that with my Fett.
I though the under-robe would be a problem. Maybe I can ask for it just to be made into a longer tunic as shown in the CRL.
Thanks again!

Re: Evoloution props robes?
Some people also go with the pants under the under robes.... depends on just how hot you want to be in the costume...
