I can be of absolutely no help to you. But by "making" this jacket, do you mean you're actually getting some polyesterish fabric and sewing an entire jacket? That's impressive.

Oh and I duct tape my seams when they rip...very high tech.

You will need a garbage bag and a pair of scissors. cut 3 holes in the garbage bag, put said garbage bag through your head and arms. Boom, you have a  new jacket that no one else will have
