Big Bang Theory Sheldon Costume

If you want to dress up as the coolest nerd on TV, Sheldon Cooper is the perfect Halloween costume for you. The Big Bang Theory gives us many costume ideas but Sheldon is the most obvious and the most popular. It's so easy to identify Sheldon with his iconic look ... a long sleeve T-shirt topped with a graphic T-shirt and a comfy pair of jeans, brown or khaki pants. He wears sneakers or shoes, but they are always brown. DC Comic characters seem to be among his very favorites so look through your drawers for one of the many DC Character T-shirts. You can add a watch with a wide brown leather strap and a big dial to finish off this simple, fun and easy to make outfit.

It doesn't take a genius to realize if you are looking for a cheap costume idea, but one that's easily recognizable, Big Bang Theory's Sheldon Cooper is a great idea. That was the easiest costume I've ever helped anyone put together! Now you have to pay attention to the "Sheldonisms" you will find in the show so you can not only look like Sheldon, but act like him to. Cosplay is easy when you study your character. Sheldon is many different things. He is a genius. He is a nerd. He is totally lacking in every day social skills. He is a bit of a narcissist and has so many goofy idiosyncrasies, it's hard to keep track of them all. And Sheldon doesn't match his clothing.

Have fun watching these costume filled videos of Sheldon, Amy, Leonard, Howard, Penny, Raj and the rest of the characters from The Big Bang Theory.

The first thing you need is a graphic comic T-shirt, if you don't have one in your drawer you can get it here. This guy really has a distinctive look and you can easily re-create it by wearing a shirt like the ones below along with a long sleeve Tee underneath it.
