Anyone have any ideas where I can find brown overalls?

[melipuffles]

Hey everyone! My boyfriend and I are going to Otakon in a few weeks, and we'll be cosplaying Wreck-It-Ralph and Vanellope! Well....I've already gotten my costume, but my boyfriend is missing one very important part of his, the brown overalls!

Does anyone have a good idea of where we can get some brown overalls without spending a fortune? Unfortunately I can not sew or anything, and we're running out of time.

Also, is anyone else going to Otakon or Bronycon? My mom is taking me to Bronycon, which is a WEEK before Otakon, and my boyfriend is taking me to Otakon. Haha, two cons in a row, kind of nuts!

Or white and dye them?

I should probably mention we've tried about 5 thrift stores in the area, and none had ANY overalls at all, let alone brown.

We haven't been able to find white ones either, or we'd try that! It seems like we can't find any overalls at all besides dark black ones.

Also my boyfriend is a bigger guy, so finding the right size is a bit hard too, especially if it's at a thrift store.

Wow. Umm..... I have no idea! Maybe post an ad on craigslist looking for them?

Haha! I suppose if we don't find any on eBay or Amazon for a reasonable price within the next two weeks, that is something we'll have to try.

We thought this couple cosplay would be EASY, but it turned out to be one of the hardest ones yet.
We originally planned to be Fluttershy and Big Macintosh, but I couldn't find a yellow dress (they're all over now, of course.) and last year we were Mario and Princess Peach for Halloween.

I can easily find them but not cheap for a big/tall guy.

Yeah, I have a feeling we're going to have to spend a bit on them from the looks of these prices online.

Tractor Supply?

[Eviecorn]

Check anywhere that sells Carhartt clothing.  Gander Mtn, Cabela's, other sporting goods stores.

[melodys_angel]

Maybe look at places that sell construction gear?

Farm supply company of some sort, or a Bass Pro shop if there is one near you.

I was going to suggest Farm and Fleet, but they're only a midwest chain. D:

Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I'll post pictures when the con rolls around.

Carhartt stuff would be good. Around here it is Fleet Farm and Tractor Supply!
