We create performer-friendly custom mascot costumes!
What makes a costume "performer-friendly"?
- Vision: We build our mascots to have the maximum amount of vision allowed by the design.
-
Design: Our head designer is a former professional mascot and creates characters with attributes she know will translate well in costume form.
-
Ventilation: Our costumes have vents in the head and mesh in other places to allow heat to escape as much as possible.
-
Lightweight: Our heads are all under 5 pounds, with most being in the 2..5-3.5 pound range. Our costumes are not a painin the neck!
-
Washable: We make our suits bodies to be machine washable (no agitator) and our heads are hand washable. Nothing is worse than smelling a mascot before you see it!
STOCK MASCOT COSTUMES
Stock mascot costumes are pre-existing designs that can be duplicated for anyone! Because we retain the rights to these designs, we are able to offer them at a much lower cost. These are fantastic options for schools, businesses, and organizations who may not have the budget for a unique custom mascot or costume.
MASCOT REPAIR
Has your mascot seen better days? Send it to us for repairs. Common repairs include:
-
New helmet: Chinstraps break, metal parts rust, or the helmet just doesn't quite fit. We can repair or replace your current internal helmet with one to your liking.
-
New zipper: Zippers break. We'll put in a new one.
-
New hands: Hands wear out the fastest. We can patch them up, or make you a whole new pair.
-
Patching worn out knee: The fur on mascot's knees gets worn out fast. We create a patch of new fur and fix up your suit.
-
Patching mascot shoes: Heels on mascot shoes wear down fast. We add on additional sole materials and help your shoes/feet last longer.
The cost for a mascot repair varies depending on the needs of your costume! All repairs begin at $50+.
