i talked to g&b yesterday and they said my suit should be at my house in 1 and a half weeks… uhhhhh. i really wanted it for this weekend but i ll wait as soon as i get it i will post pics ghostbusters promise.
I still think Rothco is the best route for GB2 Grey.
Have you received your flightsuit yet?
not yet. hopefully soon they said they need to order more fabric. hopefully by the end of the month ill get it
got my gb2 suit tday will take pics and post today
I’m definitely digging it bro. I just hate that GB2 logo ![]()
i like it. the color with the flash on looks almost perfect.
one question though, I dont see a wind flap, does the suit not come with it or did you not add it to the suit?
It’s supposed to . . .
Wow, that looks sweet! Yeah, does it have the flap? either way I’m sold as Ernie’s doesn’t seem to have one either.
yes it does have a flap. did this sway opinion from rothco? i will use g&b for all my suits. the wait time is well worth it. im gonna order different colors from the multiplayer rank up. when i get those in ill post them.
That color is gorgeous. Definitely the closest off-the-shelf fabric I’ve ever seen!
I recently got my dark grey poly/cotton blend flight suit from Gibson and Barnes and I figured I’d post some comments and pictures of it.
First the suit. Its great. Its built well, fits me amazingly and is very comfortable. The suit is made out of 7.5ounce fabric so please note that this baby can get hot, depending on when and where you are wearing it. My only issue is it doesn’t have a windflap behind the main zipper. What is there are these 2 flaps of fabric on either side of the zipper that are sewn down at certain points from when the outer details were being put onto the suit, such as the chest pockets. There’s enough fabric there for these “flaps” to be turned into a wind flap but to be able to use all the fabric that’s there, you’d have to undo important stitching of the suit. I honestly didn’t want to mess up my pockets so I just left them be.
As for the color of the dark grey suit, I think it looks very nice. After wearing it to Wizard World Philly and seeing Ernie in his suit in person again, the color is very similar. But if you want the suit to look closer to what is seen on screen, it would need to be dyed slightly with some blue to give it that tint.
My final thoughts? Love the suit, love the color, and I’m very happy with my purchase. I will never have to buy another charcoal suit again, that’s for sure.
Here’s some pictures. I’m going to post a lot of them because they were taken with different cameras, some with flash, and some without so you can get a good idea of how the color looks :




We were comparing proton packs . . . yeah



Lastly, here is Del after he got his pack signed by Ernie. This is how Ernie’s GB2 suit looked in the same lighting conditions of the convention:

Sadly, I wore my charcoal suit on the Friday of the con, and Ernie wore is on the Saturday of the con so I wasn’t able to get a comparison shot of us both in a shot together with our suits on. That and I didn’t want to pay $25 bucks for it when I already have too many pictures of me with the man.
That’s about it. I’d be curious to hear anyone’s opinion of the color and/or the suit.

Hers is more screen accurate… ![]()
Hey brotha!
Are you still able to take orders for the G&B flightsuits?
Chris
Has anyone ordered the Navy 6.5 Nomex? From the swatches on the first page that seemed like the best color. In reality was there much difference between the nomex and polycotton?
Hey guys i was just looking over this thread and realized I never did put up the pictures I promised of the storm flap. So…
would it be possible to find like a tan or light brown permanent marker and go over those white zipper tapes with it? theyre really distracting.
i know mburkit took a black sharpie to his after i kept bugging him about it and it looks much better now ![]()
Yeah, i hit the white zippers of my dark grey suit with a black sharpie and its not as noticeable now.
Me receiving “donations” from this fountain . . .
And me sleeping on the Philly Phanatic:
Compared to the other photos I posted, no more white zipper-ness.
