Cosplay Hunt

I'm trying to locate a good (and cheap) place to get some parts for one of my AWA cosplays. I'm trying to pull off Kakuzu of Akatsuki and I need to find the cloak, headband, and shoes.

I managed to find a cloak here and headband, but if someone knows a cheaper source and where I might be able to find the shoes (I can just make them if all else fails), do tell.

Thanks in advance. D8

Thrift stores are your bestest friends. Other than that, I cannot really say.

Making things is horribly rewarding. (says the girl who nearly threw a wooden plank out her window making Shinigami sandals...) :D Judging from the tutorial, the sandals look fairly simple, and if you have the time I'd recommend giving them a whirl. Probably cheaper than sandals off of eBay, which look like they start at about $25.

True true; I was hoping to go with something like that for the sandals (or pull off what my brother did one time; cutting up a pair of sneakers and using electric tape on them o.0 ).

Thanks; it's a start. 8D
