I saw a soft parts kit on eBay made by FP. Is this kit 501st approved? It comes with robe, pants/shirt, fabric belt and gloves. Not sure the soft belt is needed or not. Also, I didn't notice that there was a slit up the back of the robe or not.

For the SG, is the robe worn over the armor? Or is it worn one way or the other?

Thanks for the info.

For most shadow guards, the robe isan optional component. I haven't seen the inner soft parts offered by FP, but if they are the same as the red guards that they produce, this is not acceptable for 501st shadow guard standards.

Thanks for answering. I know the outer robe is optional, but I'd like to have it.

Again, do you know if the robe is worn over the armor or is it a completely different look?

The outer cloak, if worn, is overtop of the armour

That's what I thought, just double checking.

I've been talking to someone over ad FP. He's telling me that their stuff is worn by many members of the 501st. So, I'm guessing he's a BSer?

No several members have product from them.

Ok. So now I'm confused. I've heard two different things now.

He does have several members that wear his product... as ROTJ/AOTC?ROTS red guards... not sure that I have seen anyone wearing his products as a shadow guard

[Darthman]

Ok. That makes sense. I think I'll just make my own. Looking for patterns now
