[SuperBlackhorse123]

[miruskoo]

Hello I'd like to ask you if you could make some toturial of making Ichigo's bankai costume? Or if you did where could I find it? thanks

great vid btw :)

[oraccuzekim]

GREAT VIDEO!!! The template is SO helpful! Thank you very much for this!

[staceykl1]

about how long should "c" be? how long was it for you? thanks great video!

[Aliciez]

What kind of fabric should I make these?

[CalledInSickAgain]

I love your videos. They're very easy to understand.

[yakkafish]

hehehe, i hear sakura by ikimono gakari

[beramz83]

very nice video, i will make one for me and my two sons, hahahaha

[ryou63]

Thank you so much ^^ I was in a need of such a video at the moment. You're a life saver ^^

[yumi35]

at first i didn't understand anything thing until it got to the end i understand everything

[pai009]

Just so you know. To make the groin area easier, you could sew the sides first, the groin area secont, and the inner leg sceme last. At least that's what I do on regular pants to make sewing them easier.

[HannyCheung]

Thanks for making this tutorial. Please advise / recommend a material and what settings on the sewing machine we should use (yes, I am a complete sewing virgin). :))

[cuppiedude20]

omg! is zetsubou sensei!

[cosplayisfun]

[cosplayisfun]

[inspiredxwriter]

@jacqhe What fabric folds really easily?

[Elementfifth]

[DarthJader11]

YAAAY I want to sew now.. Can't wait to finish my Shinigami cosplay!!! Thanks! n__n

[elleyliang]

Thanks for the tutorial. I can make a hakama now. <3

[spidereine]

for A i keep getting the number 1.25 - is this right? It seems waay too small O_e

[elpheal]

@spidereine 1.25 is wayyyyy too small!!

[spidereine]

actually ignore my last question haha sorry XD

[spidereine]

one question - how do we work out the length of C in relation to our own measurements? thanks again for this tutorial!

[kikiotaku87]

Amazing! Thank you very much for this tutorial! <3

[spidereine]

this is such an amazing tutorial :O thank you so much!!!!

[elpheal]

@spidereine estimation

[Zanpakuto87]

i reversed the pieces...by accident. but i can make it work. it wasn't your tutorial that was the issue. i just cut the material wrong. my mistake aside, im about 40% done now. great job on this...if you're curious i am doing kenshin from rurouni kenshin.

[Phaythful]

who are the characters from 00:25 and what anime are they from?

[marcthetaylor]

your'e awesome. I love you videos. =D

[chibiYUE110]

one question: does kairi from shugo chara wear a hakama? im planning to cosplay him soon. thank you!

[pheenix42]

Again, splendid instructions! I think I know what I might do for a costume contest now! =D

[KathrinHart]

I'm going to attempt to make one for my taeyang Thank you for the demonstration!

[kiotx]

[elpheal]

@kiotx check out the video desc =)

[McAlys]

What is C? How to look for C?

[elpheal]

@McAlys I've already replied this question =) look above

[yukiko832]

this was helpful to me and a great demonstration for people like me who are beginning their cosplay but i suck at sowing and i would gladly pay anyone to make one for me XD no seriously i would -__-'

[magesight3]

This was so helpful. Your awesome! I want to make one for my brother. Can anyone give me a tip for how much fabric i need per piece? I'm new to sowing but i think i can do it with a rough estimation for how much material is needed for the front and back. Thank you!

[elpheal]

@magesight3 You need a MINIMUM of 4meter (length) x 38 inch (width)

[KawaiiKurasu]

Thank you soooo much!

[garamellmagic]

[Inichan]

[ElfLady2001]

This was incredibly helpful!  I never could figure this out before. Plus your video demo was the cutest thing I ever saw! Thank you so very much!

[Cuezu]

Thank you thank you thank you!! I'm going to the upcoming kawa kon and this helped a BUNCH!!the template was great also! Do you know where i can find a tutorial on a sakura cosplay(dress version) or a kosode top tutorial? I cabt seem to find them

[naughtypandafilms]

VERY well worked out and instructed. Thanx a LOT for such a detailed tutorial! I plan on making a pair this week

[mangagirl137]

Quick question: is C the groin/inner leg measurement? I'm a little confused.

[elpheal]

@mangagirl137 nono, C is the gap of the little hole by the side you always see on Hakamas =)

[Ashyoochun]

A wonderful tutorial, and extremely easy to understand. Love how you made it so simple to modify to any size, that is very helpful. Thanks ever so much for posting this video.

[elpheal]

@Ashyoochun aww thank u !

[AtarashiiAkai]

By waist length do you mean the measurement Around your waist[Circumference of your waist]. because by definition here waist length is the measurement from your apex to your waist.

[elpheal]

@AtarashiiAkai circumference =)

[TheFluffyGirl14]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! i've looked at a lot of other Hakama tutorials and they were all sooooo confusing!! thank you for making this simple and easy to follow one!!!

[ashfaelow]

Extremely helpful! ありがと！

[Kakashi112233]

Hi, I like the way you show everybody how to make hakama like this. =D

But I have 1 question:

Normally what kind of cloth for ppl to make hakama? Like polyester?

[elpheal]

@Kakashi112233 I think it's just a personal prference what fabric you use =)? Polyester are nice to work with and dont crease as badly

[KagaKiyomitsu]

@Kakashi112233 cotton is your best choice as its not too pricey like silk and easy to work with.

[Itazuki]

What is B for exactly?

[PinkCheetah101]

I have a few questions:

What is the waist band width?

How/What is the measure for C? How far down should C go down the side of your leg?

Is E how long you waist to your feet are?

How do you determind the size of the Back Flap?

Thank you so much! It would help a lot if you can answer these questions!

I love this tutorial! :)

[elpheal]

@PinkCheetah101

C = this depends on how comfortable you are with the slits. Maybe 6 - 9inch?

E = yup

Back flap = personally I just do a rough gauge. I don't have any size to follow...I kinda just based it on the anime characters

[PinkCheetah101]

@elpheal Thank you very much! This was very helpful!

So should the waist belt be the width of the hole of the back flap? Depending on how big the hole you make?

[Karicorfo]

genial tu tutoria only I don´t understand english T_T agradeceria si una alma caritativa le pone subtitulos en español :]

[elpheal]

@Karicorfo go to the website and download the template ^^ Should be relatively easy without any knowledge in English

[madleftyeli]

you are very talented ^^ I could never do something like this

[YoukaiNoKage]

I love this! You've made it so simple! Thankyuuu! By the way, is Letter B the measurement of your waist / 2?

[elpheal]

@YoukaiNoKage Yeap!

B = waist length / 2

[Sasumiwo]

FINALLY!!! Finally a tutorial for hakama dear..Gawd... D:
