Where could i get elbow pads that come close to the ones in the movie? Any ideas? and where the heck does the [yellow hose](https://www.gbfans.com/shop/yellow-uniform-hose) go too. I know it comes out the front of the leg, but where sould i connect it too after that?

Have you even bothered to read the “Uniforms” forum or use the search feature?

Watch the movie and pick a place, it seems even the actors didn’t know either… Back pocket, tied to the belt, tucked behind the belt, etc…

I got a set of Skater pads on ebay for about $15 brand new. I can always use them if I’m laying floor in the house. I haven’t figured a practical use for any of my other GB gear. : P

for the elbow pads, I’ve been using Franklin brand volleyball knee pads (you read right, KNEE pads). from what I heard, they used knee pads as well in the movies. I bought the white ones, then I dipped them in black Rit dye (dont worry, they turn grey). and they seem to have been working so far. they dried a bit, i put them in the dryer (yes, it was black on the inside, but its easy to clean).

but yeah, Franklin brand volleyball knee pads, you should be able to get them at the sports section of Wal-Mart, thats where I got them.

Anybody ever spray paint pads with grey primer for that sandy dusty look? Also, I have noticed the underside of the pads look black sometimes in the movies.
