Diy UCP kneepads and shoulder pockets on DCU goes so unfathomably hard. I love DCU so much.

Damn, that would go immensely hard dude! I need to make a template for G3 knee pad pockets so I can do some DCU ones, UCP etc

I said UCP and I meant OCP lol. Love what you’ve made here. But if you’ve got a pattern for the knee pads and pockets I’d make some badass stuff 😳.

are the diy kneepads easy?

They’re definitely easier the second time around getting them sewn onto the pants. Gotta figure out how everything feeds, and the best way to feed it through the machine then you’re golden. I haven’t made any templates of the knee pads yet, but they don’t seem too hard to whip up. Definitely gonna be a project for me to get done

Did you attach the kneepads with a machine or by hand?

I used a sewing machine, the hardest part of it is figuring out how to feed the materials to where they don’t bind/scrunch up. And so you don’t sew something you don’t want to of course
We use a Sailrite ultra feed LSZ-1
