So this weekend I made my 5 year old son a Jedi robe from a pattern I found on the web. It turned out pretty good. Now I'm thinking I could probably make my own kung fu uniform. Anyone out there got a pattern?

IronFist made this pattern for me a while back.
Create your own by using an old uniform by popping all the seams and laying the individual pieces out. You can get paper at a fabric store to make your own pattern or just log the measurements.
My friend and I did this after finding nothing on the web except for a few japanese kimono type patterns.

We had a real seamstress sew them so they turned out great. Much more durable than an off the shelf top. We used heavier fabric for both the body of the uniform and the mandarin "zipper".
They look very similar to this: http://www.martialartsmart.net/1113rt.html

It was pretty easy. Getting my 5 year old son to hold still while I measured him was the tough part. :D
