Question about "The Floppy Hat" and Tattoine ponch

Lumpy (Chris Blackstock)

Anyone have any insight into where I can get/make "The Floppy Hat" or Tattoine poncho for my Farmboy Luke costume???

People on here have done it.

Here's one build thread that might help - I think the poster there has another thread with more poncho info, but not sure.

Good luck!

Thanks! I tried to look through all 7 pages of posts in the Luke sub-section here, but missed that one.

I may have some pre- cut strips of the ribbed material left to add as trim to your poncho fabric.

PM me for pictures and price.

Here are some shots of the 100% Wool Knit I have available for sale. These are cut into approximately 3 Inch wide strips.

4 Qty. Strips (2 Yards Length)
2 Qty. Strips (1 Yard Length)

This should be enough to make the trim on a Luke ANH poncho. These are as close as I was able to source for screen accurate wool knit trim detailing for this piece of the costume.

Can’t speak for anywhere else in the world, but if you’re in Canada, right now Dollarama has fantastic floppy hats for CAD3 each. I just bought two today.

Also, Party City has excellent (faux leather) aviator goggles (attached to a faux leather hat) for CAD19.99. The metal parts would need to be painted black and the lenses should be changed, but otherwise they REALLY look the part.
