Homemade
Captain America Costume
A Captain America homemade costume will need a blue body suit. If you're looking for some other type of costumer, try the Mad Hatter costume . But for Captain America, a blue bodysuit, the shinier the better, so a satin type stretchy material would probably be best. It can end at the feet, or the feet can also be included in the body suit. The feet will be covered with red, knee-high length boots, anyway.
Across the waist, a wide belt-like attachment will be needed. It should be red and white, the stripes going vertically. Also, a large white star will be sewn onto the chest of the Captain America handmade costume.
Then you will need long, red, elbow-length gloves to match his red boots.
For the head gear, a soft but firm blue material should be molded around the head and sewn at the back. A plain, blue baseball cap may also be used, with the brim cut off. A white capital “A” for America will also need to be sewn, or glued, onto the front of the cap. A mask is also necessary to hide the true identity of Captain America. It should just be a band across the eyes. Open holes in the eyes so that the wearer can see comfortably out of them, and sew a thin elastic band to each side of the mask to hold it onto the face. Another idea is a Musketeer costume.
Getting back to Captain America, he carries a shield. This can be handmade out of cardboard or foam board. It is round, with three stripes around the edge of it, one red, one white, and another red one. The middle is dark blue, with a large, white star in the middle.
