Ninja outfits should be dark in color, disguised and comfortable - it's better to do your ninja moves. You can make headbands, belts, hoods, and pants protectors using just a few colored T-shirts. With your custom-made costume, you'll be ready to unleash your ninja moves - but only to those who deserve them.
Step
Part 1 of 6: Headband
Step 1. Take a t-shirt and place it on a flat surface
Choose one shirt that is at least big enough for you to wear. If the shirt is too small, the headband may not wrap around your head easily.
Step 2. Grab your t-shirt and flip the inside out and look for the hole you would normally wear your head in but don't put your head in the hole
Step 3. Tie the ends
If the arm is visible, that's okay. It will be hidden under your hood later.
Part 2 of 6: Belt
Step 1. Take another shirt
Do exactly what you did for the headband, but don't wear it around your head this time. Simply fold the t-shirt to form a strip of fabric. The width of the belt should depend on your body size. Usually a good width is slightly wider than your hand.
Step 2. Pull the sleeves of the shirt behind your back
The center of the shirt should be around your stomach. This belt should be tight enough. If it's not tight enough, you may want to make a belt with a smaller shirt size. You don't want any giant ties behind your back.
Step 3. Tie the sleeves around your back
Tuck the remaining ends into the belt. You will have a slight bump on your back, but it shouldn't be too noticeable. If you can see the neckline of the shirt, tuck it in too, as it will only distract from the view.
Part 3 of 6: Boss
Step 1. Take another shirt and wear it normally
Fold the sleeves down so your shirt looks sleeveless. Make these folds neatly and try to avoid creasing or rolling up the sleeves of the shirt. Cutting the sleeves of the shirt can cause asymmetrical lines if you're not very good at sewing, so folding the sleeves down is the best option.
Step 2. Take the bottom of the shirt and pull it over your head
Don't really take the shirt off! Just until the ends are at the back of your neck (while your arms stay on the sleeves of the shirt (which have been folded so they look as if they are sleeveless)). At this point you should have something that looks like a weird vest around your arm.
Make sure the shirt is big enough so that this move doesn't immobilize your arm or greatly reduce the range of motion of your arm
Part 4 of 6: Hood
Step 1. Wear a long-sleeved shirt and stop over the ears and nose
In other words, the top of the shirt (collar) should be at the curvature of your nose and ears.
Step 2. Pull the back of the shirt up to your forehead
It doesn't matter if your hairline is visible, that's what a headband is for. Adjust it so that the shirt is above your eyebrows. Don't tighten it yet.
Step 3. Take the sleeves of the shirt and tie them behind your head
It's okay to just let the parts of the arm hang. You can leave it loose or tuck it into a t-shirt around your body.
Part 5 of 6: Protective Pants
Step 1. Take another shirt and place it on your upper thigh
The collar should point towards the navel at an angle. Fold the edges of the collar to get rid of any awkward lines.
Your thighs are not "in" the shirt. it only covers the "top" part of your thigh
Step 2. Take the sleeves and wrap the shirt around your upper thighs
Tie the sleeves behind your thighs. Fold the knot down.
Then, tie the bottom hem of the shirt behind your thighs. Fold in the free-hanging ends or knots. Do it on both legs
Step 3. Take another shirt and do the same on your calves
Also do the same for both your forearm and upper arm (at this point you may need help). You can of course wear a long sleeve shirt of the same color and it will look just as good. But layers of color generally add a sense of reassurance to your outfit.
Most of your work has been completed. Now all you have to do is decide whether you want to fight for good or evil. Some people say clothes make you a person, but in your case, you make clothes
Part 6 of 6: The Overall Combination
Step 1. Put on your basic clothes, i.e. a sweatshirt and sweatpants where the rest of the clothes will be worn over them
Whatever you do, just pick one color -- any color. There are even white ninjas.
Great colors for ninja outfits are black, navy, red and white. Ninjas in pink costumes can certainly be taken a little less seriously
Step 2. Put on layers of tops, pant protectors, and hoods
If someone can help you tie the sleeves, do this now.
Once the three pieces are combined and ready for action, add your headband. Arrange everything so that it fits snugly in place and looks good
Step 3. Add your accessories
Accessories can be swords, ninja stars, boots, or gloves. Think creatively -- you are a ninja; won't make a mistake. Ninjas don't make mistakes. If someone questions the authenticity of your ninja hood because you're wearing Doc Marten shoes, it's time to beat them up with them.
Tips
- Be sure to tuck in all the hanging ends of the garment. If one piece keeps sticking out, take a safety pin to make sure it doesn't keep happening.
- Only use matching colors unless you intend to wear the shirts in one color and the clothes underneath in another.
Warning
- A ninja costume made out of a t-shirt doesn't make you a real ninja, and unfortunately, provides little protection when you're in a ninja fight. Be careful.
- Be careful not to tie the shirts too tightly, so as not to reduce blood circulation in the limbs.
