The cloak was made from a greyish-green microfiber. It was made from the same semicircular pattern I used to make the Lorien cloaks for Merry and Pippin. I made the hood by cutting a rectangle along a fold, sewing up the top edge, and gathering it onto the neckline. Worked surprisingly well. The clasp is a hidden hook-and-eye.
The jerkin, which Doug is wearing OVER the duster instead of under it, because he "liked it better that way," was made of a dark brown vinyl. I didn't use a pattern, just kind of held the vinyl up to him and marked it with a few pins. The four ties across the chest and the lacing down the sides were done with brown leather lace from Wal-Mart which, for some reason, looks yellow in this photo.
The duster is made of a lightweight black denim. I started off planning to use the tunic pattern in Simplicity 9887 as my guide, but threw it out the window pretty quickly and just kinda pieced the thing together myself. I was planning on putting black leather lacing over all the seams, but didn't have time.
The pants are his own faded black work pants, probably stained at this point as he had closed the night of the movie.
There's a belt under there somewhere too, made of a woven cording dyed dark brown and attached to a silver buckle. Who knows where though? I included a diagram detailing how to wear the layers with his costume, but he ignored it shamelessly.
The gloves were weight-lifting gloves purchased at Wal-Mart for around $4. He's only wearing one there, I forget why, giving him a strange Michael-Jackson-of-the-Dunedain look that I find more than a little disturbing.
And, as a final touch, Essay lent him her Evenstar pendant.
