T.J. Detweiler Recess costume guide

ABOUT T.J. DETWEILER:

Theodore Jasper “T.J.” Detweiler is the main protagonist and leader of the Recess gang. He is a prankster with excellent leadership skills, confidence, and the ability to talk his way out of any situation. T.J. is rarely seen without his red baseball hat, which he always wears backward. While not the smartest academically, he is intelligent and can engineer complex pranks. He stands up for the underdog and is fiercely loyal to his friends, though he is capable of calling them out when they’re wrong.

How To Dress Like Theodore Jasper

1. JACKET – Begin your T.J. cosplay with a simple green bomber jacket.

2. CAP – Next, you will need a plain red baseball cap just like this one.

3. JEANS – T.J. Detweiler wears a pair of baggy skater jeans in a light denim wash.

4. T-SHIRT – Keeping things simple and laidback, T.J. also wears a basic plain tee under his jacket.

5. FRECKLES – Use a dark brown freckle pain to add three freckles on either side of your nose.

6. FOOTWEAR – Finish your look with a pair of classically-styled low-top canvas sneakers.
