The
Following are typical questions & answers: |
|
Is
this
an
"off
the
shelf"
costume?
Many
costume
places
have
a
catalog
and
you
can
choose
from
poor
quality,
generic
designs
and
hope
for
the
best.
Each
of
our
costumes
are
unique
and
hand-made
with
the
highest
quality
craftsmanship.
What
does a costume cost to make?
Each
costume has a unique set of requirements,
therefore we work on a project by project
basis. Submit your ideas to us and we will
come up with a custom quote for you!
What
if 2 people wear the costume, but the people are
different sizes?
This
is
a
common
request.
We
ergonomically
design
each
costume
to
fit
the
performer
and
the
purpose.
We
can
design
a
system
in
the
costume
to
allow
multiple
sizes
and
allow
for
adjustment
based on the person wearing
it. Be
sure
to
include
that
in
your
request.

How
do
I
know
what
material
to
use?
There
are
many
types
of
materials
able
to
be
used.
For
the
most
part
we
use
a
closed
cell
foam,
however
it
is
contingent
on
the
project
requirements.
We
are
experts
in
all
fabrication
materials.
Some
costumes
are
meant
for
minimal
walking
around,
whereas
others
are
built
for
athletes
to
perform
stunts,
as
in
the
professional
sports
mascots.
Share
with us your designs
&
how you will use the
costume. We will help
determine
the
best
balance
of
lightweight
and
durability!

How
do I store my costume?
It
is very important to care for your costume.
Make sure that it is well protected from the
elements.
Avoid
moisture
and
extreme
heat
and
cold.
Do
not
keep
it
folded
or
bunched
up
as
it
could
damage
the
structure.
We offer storage services and
can have your costume shipped to you wherever
& whenever you need it.

What
do
I
need
prepared
for
a
quote?
It
is
helpful
to
have
a
four
sided
drawing
of
your
character
and
a
description
of
how
the
costume
will
be
used.
However,
if
you
are
not
sure,
give
us
a
call!
We
can
help
you
design
a
character
from
scratch
and
make
sure
it
works
under
your
specific
circumstances.

What
happens
if
my
costume
gets
damaged?
We
use
only
the
best
materials

expertise

wear
&
tear.

types
of

can
be

worse

products!
