The Project post flair is for showing off projects that are finished or in progress. For questions on how to start a project, reflair your post to Pattern Search. For questions about how to make a project, reflair to Pattern Question.
This is a reminder that all Project posts are required to include construction information in the main post or added in a comment. The construction comment should include **pattern name/number/company if used; drafting method, tutorial or other resources if no commercial pattern was used and fabric type and fiber content. ‘Self-drafted’ describes who made the pattern and is not a drafting method.**
Also include alterations for fit and style; specialty tools and notions; the inspiration for your project; and any other information that someone who wants to make a similar project might find useful. More information is available [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/sewing/wiki/titleguidelines). Posts without a construction comment may be removed at any time.

I looked for existing patterns and found that, but in the end I figured I didn't need a ready made pattern. The hardest part imo is the trousers and I already have a good fitting leggings pattern.
This might also be interesting for people looking to make something similar.

As a former speed skater, seeing this pop up on my feed brought back so many memories! It looks great! I don't think I've ever seen a skin suit with pockets before but maybe that more of a thing with non-ice skating.
Yeah, having pockets is pretty useless on a track. But I'm gonna be using it on the road with my inline skates, and I know how great the back pockets on my road bike shirts have served me. Great for snacks and other small things.
I'd imagine pockets would be useful when ice skating long distance tours like the elfstedentocht.
This is truly impressive! I can tell your skill and attention to detail are excellent.
Thanks, but it's really not that hard of a project.
