Description Hi! Thank you for taking time to look at this!

As you may know, or saw on my photos I uploaded, I only have a trenchjacket, not a trenchcoat.
I have searched for hours,days, and weeks now, but it seems like that the internet has no perfect trenchcoats like Cas ones (they are too short, have the wrong colour....)
The only Trenchcoat I found was a special 'cas-one' Trenchcoat: www.ebay.com/itm/Supernatural-…
But it's so expesive, I have no money at the moment and I don't think my parents will help me ^^ (Even if they really love seeing me cosplaying)
Do you think I should go to a thrift shop? I heard so many people who cosplay as cas saying, that they got their TC from a thrift shop

Second Problem is: THE TIE!
This maybe sounds stupid, but all ties I sea are freakin' shiny, have stripes, are too bright......
Castiels tie isn't shiny at all :/ So, where can I get a non-shiny one?

If you now think that I am stupid, that's okay xD I think the same! but if you have any ideas, pleeeaaase help me!

Sorry for my bad english

Uh, for the tie, just dye it. (I hope this helped, though I doubt it.)

But first, I have to find one that's not shiny...

The tie? same problem XD Just got a trench coat/jacket... thing

I would guess at a cheap place. since the cheaper ones may have simpler designs

Oh man... D:
I see that many people make the coats themselves.

As for the tie, I think you need to go to a special 'tie-shop' for that one D:

And yes, that trenchcoat is extremely expensive...

I bought a similar coat, and tailored it. So much cheaper and looks the same.

TimelordLoki In reply to TheNaitsyrk [2013-09-02 19:53:34 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, that would be an opportunity
Where do you got yours from if I may ask?
A local store, or the internet?

Sorry for spamming, but yeah. Check the 0:24 second of this video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqfZ2Y… You can clearly see the back "flap".

TimelordLoki In reply to TheNaitsyrk [2013-09-02 20:25:30 +0000 UTC]

Don't worry, you don't spam

Yeah I noticed that too :/

(I don't even find a good trenchcoat for tailoring...
I think I should stop searching for today, and continue tomorrow with the search)

TheNaitsyrk In reply to TimelordLoki [2013-09-02 20:26:56 +0000 UTC]

I understand why it's expensive. It's expensive because they could make the trenchcoat fit you perfectly. Although, there's one mistake and it's a bit expensive so yeah...

TheNaitsyrk In reply to TimelordLoki [2013-09-02 20:13:58 +0000 UTC]

I noticed that the coat... The expensive one in the link. It's 100% accurate. I looked up Castiel's back, and there's a big flap. The trenchcoat from the link doesn't have such thing.

TheNaitsyrk In reply to TheNaitsyrk [2013-09-02 20:14:20 +0000 UTC]

I mean it's not 100% accurate*

TheNaitsyrk In reply to TimelordLoki [2013-09-02 20:04:35 +0000 UTC]

E-bay. Just get an ordinary coat and then tailor it. Should be much cheaper.

No problem. Check the details before you buy something. Make sure that the front of the trenchcoat has no flaps, and the back has one big flap. Umm.. Also make sure that the size is appropriate. I just checked my trenchcoat and yeah, there's a big flap.
