Tusken Raider Bindings

Here you can see all four bindings needed for the costume. Two are for the forearms and two for the calves. These pieces are made from the same Cotton Duck canvas used on the mask.

Simply take a large section of the outer robe material and cut it into four 2 foot squares. Cut four three foot strips (and three inches wide) of canvas and sew or glue them to the larger sections.

Wrap the large sections around your arm/leg and then wrap the strips around your arm/leg until you've completely covered the desired area. To avoid using unsightly safety pins, tuck the end of the cloth strip into another strip.

Tusken Raider Boots

Take some of the extra fabric left over from making the outer robe and tear it into several long three inch strips. Wrap these strips around the parts of the boots that will show and secure the ends of the strips with fabric glue, super glue or hot melt caulk.

Be sure to leave the heel of the shoe open. You'll be less likely to slip if you have a little traction.
