Before we get started I want to make something clear.If you have not worked with duct tape alot you will most likely find this impossible. And you have to be very patient because sheat making is a really long process.

P.S. This is my first instructable and is also in Spl1nt3rC3ll's head to head contest.

Also this instructable will take you atleast over 5 hours

Disclaimer- I am not responsible for any wasted duct tape. Or hair. Or time. Or if your dissapointed that you cannot flex your arms while wearing it. Or if you make it too tight and you have to cut it off to get out.

Is it warm? I'm afraid to make it and waste my duct tape if it's not.

greekllama says: Jun 28, 2010. 11:00 PM
could you use a hoody instead of a shirt on step 3?
Matt21497 (author) in reply to greekllamaJul 1, 2010. 1:53 PM
You could just it wouldnt be quite as practical. An oversized T-Shirt would be best.

So is the inside of your jacket colored too? Just curious.

Aw shucks man! I was browsing instructables for a while and never found a duct tape hoodie.... Until today. Which makes me sad.... Because I spent 4 days making a duct tape hoodie when one has already been posted :(
Matt21497 (author) in reply to cowscankillOct 1, 2009. 3:22 PM

cowscankill in reply to Matt21497Oct 1, 2009. 5:48 PM

Nice I think yours is way cooler then mine. What type of tape is that? Also You where smart and made it fatter on the sides unlike mine so it looks like it fits better.
cowscankill in reply to Matt21497Oct 4, 2009. 11:10 AM
Haha, I made mine as perfect as I could, with very few wrinkles and bubbles. I used Duck brand duct tape. 40 yards for $2.88
Matt21497 (author) in reply to cowscankillOct 4, 2009. 6:30 PM
I saw an amazing deal in todays papers. At menards Octoberfest or Fallfest sale ( dont know which one for sure) there was a deal for 2 rolls of Duct Tape for 3 dollars I was in awe.
cowscankill in reply to Matt21497Oct 4, 2009. 7:17 PM
But how many yards each?
Matt21497 (author) in reply to cowscankillOct 5, 2009. 12:54 PM
60 so a whopping 120 yards for 3 bucks!
cowscankill in reply to Matt21497Oct 5, 2009. 2:13 PM
:O That is a lot!
Matt21497 (author) in reply to cowscankillOct 5, 2009. 2:37 PM
Yup.
Bartboy says: Sep 14, 2009. 2:05 PM
I bet you could get a new hoodie for cheaper than the cost of this.... But where's the fun in that?
Matt21497 (author) in reply to BartboySep 15, 2009. 5:54 PM

Features generally aren't given by request (at least in my experience).
Matt21497 (author) in reply to Gjdj3Aug 7, 2009. 7:37 AM
Yeah I found that out. That one Iamrobot guy got his instructable featured through a bunch of nagging and bothering. I dont want to sound like that.
Redneck2 says: Aug 6, 2009. 9:25 PM
Awesome intructable I love using duct tape i might have to try to make this
Gjdj3 says: Aug 6, 2009. 5:53 PM
Sweet! It actually looks pretty cool.
watermelonhead says: Aug 4, 2009. 6:32 PM
You said we see pics of your face :P
Matt21497 (author) in reply to watermelonheadAug 4, 2009. 6:41 PM
changed my mind. (= Going to keep myself unseen. Kind of like what alot of the users here do such as Berkin.
watermelonhead in reply to Matt21497Aug 5, 2009. 8:40 AM
Ha.
pineapplenewton in reply to Matt21497Aug 5, 2009. 7:53 AM
could you at least put it on and like cover your face?
Matt21497 (author) in reply to pineapplenewtonAug 5, 2009. 8:18 AM
Sorry but I changed my mind about that. Because this is a free public website where anyone can find me.
bassclarinet23 in reply to Matt21497Nov 25, 2009. 8:23 AM
What about your profile thumbnail?
watermelonhead in reply to bassclarinet23Nov 25, 2009. 10:24 AM
