When the duct tape is wrapped all the way to your arms,cut it off,and then start ripping strips about that are equal to the width from one armpit to the other, and take about 2 or 3 inches (5.1 or 7.6 cm) off the measurement.

Step 4

Step 5

ADDITIONAL: If you want your duct tape jacket to have a zipper, it is very easy to do and pretty cheap. Go to a sewing or craft store and buy enough zipper to go all the way down the length of your jacket with about 3" leftover.

Step 12
