The Updated and All-Inclusive Costume Thread

Yes there is one image in the product guide that shows an opening across the back of the waist of the shorts.

So I've signed up for a fun local 5K.



The course is the airport runway. Should be super fun AND it was free! It's in a few weeks and in the morning, so temps should be well in the 40s or 50s for the race. I decided to have some fun with it and dress as Amelia Earhart! She actually visited the Burlington, VT airport in 1934. I found a great jacket at the thrift store, had these Old Navy leggings (that will 100% fall down the whole race) and found the hat/goggles/scarf on Etsy.

For the boots, I have dark brown scrunch socks that I can pull up to my knees to give the impression of boots, but I can also wear these old, worn-in Ecco boots. I'd obviously test them out first, but just going by costume LOOK, which of these do you prefer? I can't decide if it makes that much difference or not. And I'll be taking it pretty easy either way.

I like the first one best!

Also feels a little wrong... since it is not disney... like wearing a non disney animation costume feels like I am cheatin on disney. Lol.

When the photographers in Avengers Campus always ask who my favorite superhero is, I answer truthfully.

Batman.

I jokingly quip that I'm part of the reason why they now ask who your favorite Avenger is so I can't answer with another comic company's character.

I ran the 2017 Avengers Half Marathon in a Batman shirt and then the 2025 Disneyland 5K themed to Groot in the same Batman shirt.

I also got a kick out of the Star Trek runners in the Star Wars races. If there was ever a Star Trek race, I would absolutely run it in a Star Wars costume. On one occasion at Star Trek Night with the San Francisco Giants, I wore a Millennium Falcon shirt when I sat in the captain's chair of Kirk's Enterprise. And yes, I do have a Giants Star Trek shirt that I could have worn.

Strictly on looks, I think the Eccos work better

Thanks @nancipants and @Naomeri for confirming my instincts. I guess I'll be doing a test run in these boots this week!
