Does anyone know if the 'wings' patch on Ripley's flight suit is green or black? I can't really tell from the movie (they look black) or from promo stills (I found a few where I thought they might be very dark green) but I can't tell for sure.
Also, does anyone have the 80s Thinking Cap Co "wings" patches? There was a green available as well as the black. If anyone owns the green wings from Thinking Cap, are they dark green or is the green a tad too light? It looks too light green in pictures I've seen of the patch they had available... Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

This is the green patch from the Thinking Cap portfolio.

Pretty sure they're indeed all dark green and just look black. This in-universe memo from The Thinking Cap Company about the patches lists them as green, too.
Found this today in a local charity shop. Quite small, but IF anyone is interested, I'd be happy to pick em up and ship em at cost.
I'm in NZ, and I'd estimate posting over to the US [for eg] would be approx US$35, including the price of the shoes themselves.

Hi! Fantastic find! On the sizes it says US size 7. Is that a guys 7 or women's? Thanks!
Nostromo79 re sizing - no idea, I'm afraid, as it's an Op shop, there's not a lot of er 'clear signage' to indicate what pile is what 
The shop is about a 2min drive from my house, happy to go in with a tape measure in the next day or two, if you like?

Perhaps the WO'S 8 is Woman's size 8.

Maybe, Women's UK sizes...? In the US women's sizes are usually 2 sizes higher than a guys size. So I wear womens size 7 but guys size 5. Bummer, because this is probably a guys size shoe...

I'd have said yes but now I'm pretty sure it's a guys size 7, not ladies size 7, judging by the UK sizes listed... So, it would be too big. Thank you though! My search continues... Right now I have white converse for my costume.Nostromo79 re sizing - no idea, I'm afraid, as it's an Op shop, there's not a lot of er 'clear signage' to indicate what pile is what

Nostromo79 no problems. I might measure em regardless, next time I down that way (although I don't know when that will next be).
zerodrum your links aren't working as you intended, I don't think, but nonetheless, good idea re the manufacturers site.

Here are some images of what the Bata Bullets can look like when you start to dress them out. Not screen-accurate, of course, but has a decent in-universe company exchange/store look and feel. Two different types of Vibram lug soles. Third vents and ankle patch removal pending, etc.

rickhoward They look good. White soles help. I also made an in-universe pair with an alternative PF.
