I was wondering if anyone had use that pattern as I saw it when I was looking for stuff on the Joann fabric website. Good to know about your experience with it. Fortunately I will be commissioning a very experienced seamstress who is familiar with costumes standards for 501st and rebel legion. I am confident in her skills. Assuming of course I find the right pattern for her to work with. I also have red suggestions and of course from past experience in other things that have been made for me, to make the pattern first out of different material just to make sure it's all good and then to use the super expensive fabric.

Making a mock up first is definitely the best idea.

I was just lazy and i hate doing mock ups so i just hoped for the best and bought a little extra fabric in case i messed up (which i did. Especially on the crotch diamond.)

I used yaya han's jumpsuit pattern, but it took an insane amount of altering to get it right. I wouldn't recommend it unless you've had a lot of pattern altering experience. (Plus the torso is about four inches too short on just about everyone so...)

Here are some photos of the boots with the shinguards. I tried to get as close as possible for details.

That should most likely work, and the placement seems pretty good! The shin guards fit you way better than they do me. I'm insanely small and they are HUGE on me, but they still accepted them, so you should be good.

This is the type of fabric I want to use, correct?

Yes it is. That is the same fabric i used for my jumpsuit:

I have those shin guards, and they will get you approved. Just removed the small piece at the bottom. I also used that exact same buckle initially, and it will not be accepted. I would either dremel it down or buy a new one from tandy. For the boots: they will most likely be accepted because the elastic portion will be mostly concealed by the straps of the shinguards.
