Quadan[TK] Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Ok. so I ordered a large compression suit from Eastbay. The body fits wonderfully! I mean like perfect.. problem is my arms are rather short and small and leave the sleeves rather wrinkled. Will that be much or an issue while TK armor or should I sacrafice the body fit for better fitting arms and go down to a medium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'm Batman[501st] Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Probably won't matter if you're wearing the long rubber chemical gloves over the top, then your forearm armor will also be over the top of that. As long as the wrinkling isn't around the elbows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK bondservnt[501st] Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 have you tried on the armor yet? you can always use a tuck into inner gloves like silk gloves or liners. Then putting on the rubber glove over the tucked in inner glove, allowing the undersuit to be comfortable and wrinkle free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadan[TK] Posted January 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) The suit is just to wide around my arms. It wrinkles in the elbows even when pulled tight, outwards. and no to trying the armor on. It wont show up for another 3 to 4 weeks. ------------ Edited January 25, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bone[TK] Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 You could do a few things, but all of them involve some kind of sewing: 1: Pull the shirt inside out and sew a new seam along the seams on the sleeves that are already there to make them tighter. Do you have an aunt, a mother or a grandmother with a sewing machine? They should know what to do ... 2: At the wrist of the sleeves tear open the seams about an Inch, so that you can stick your thumb through the holes. With this trick the sleeve will always be pulled straight and it also make s it easier to put on your arm armor. Hope that helps ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmosis[501st] Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 The under suit should not be loose on you at all. It should be a second skin. I have always told people if you wear a large, buy a medium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
