Mascot Buying & Performance Guide

A mascot costume is more than a suit—it is a performer, a brand ambassador, and a memory-maker.

1. How to Choose the Right Mascot Costume

Before buying, ask yourself:

Is this for school spirit, brand promotion, sports events, or commercial marketing?
Will it be used indoors, outdoors, or both?
Is it for short appearances or long performances?

Foam Head (EVA / Polyfoam): Lightweight, breathable, and ideal for long performances.
Hard Plastic / Fiberglass Head: Very durable with sharp facial details, best for professional branding.
Fan-Built Head: Recommended for performances longer than 20-30 minutes to prevent overheating.

TIP: For frequent use, always prioritize ventilation and visibility.

Confirm recommended performer height, weight range, and arm/leg mobility to ensure a natural look.

Mascots do not speak—movement tells the story. Use big, exaggerated gestures and always face the audience.

Never remove the head in public and avoid using phones. Once the costume is on, you ARE the mascot.

Limit sessions to 15-30 minutes, stay hydrated, and use a handler in crowded events.

Cleaning: Hand-wash or gentle cold machine wash. Never use high heat. Air-dry only.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place using a breathable garment bag. Keep the head supported.
