FURSUIT CARE
-It is advised to wash and brush your fursuit after extended wear at meets or conventions. THIS is the cleaning tutorial I recommend following. Bodysuits with removable padding can be machine washed on a delicate cold cycle. I recommend hand washing other parts with gentle clear soap and COLD water, or with a Little Green Machine.-DO NOT MACHINE WASH my fursuit heads. My fursuit eyes are constructed with foam sheets, which can be damaged by machine washing. In addition, machine washing can case damage or fading to drybrushed or airbrushed fursuit parts.-NEVER use hot water to wash a fursuit, as it can damage the fur fibers and cause neoprene lining fabric to leach dye and stain your suit.-If you accidentally wash your suit with hot water and notice dye beginning to leach, don't panic!! Immediately turn the water to cold and pour it over the affected area thoroughly to rinse the loose dye out before it sets.-Be sure to FAN DRY your suit ALL THE WAY THROUGH, especially the inside of foam and lined parts. If moisture remains inside the suit, it is possible for mold to grow. A moldy suit is dangerous to wear and must be thrown away. There is no way to completely save a fursuit from mold once it has grown.-Fursuits, like any other article of clothing, can eventually pop seams after long-term wear. I recommend all fursuit owners learn ladder stitch and blanket stitch, as these are great for fixing most burst seams! I advise using upholstery thread for the strongest hold.
HEALTH, ALLERGY, & COVID-19 NOTES
-Every member of my household is fully vaccinated, including the newest COVID-19 booster, and all products will be disinfected thoroughly before delivery!-This is a smoke-free home, and we have no cats or dogs. We do have a leopard gecko, but he is kept away from my workspace!-If you have any health, accessibility, or safety concerns, please contact me!
PARTIAL & FULL SUITS
I do not make custom heads! I am happy to make you a paw and tail set to go along with a head from another maker, but I do not have plans to take custom fursuit head commissions.As of right now, I have only completed 1 fullsuit, but I plan to create more premade designs where the client sends in a duct tape dummy for the creation of a fullsuit.
(3D printed headbase in the last fursuit was made by FuzzbuttFursuits)
CUSTOM HANDPAWS
4 FINGER PLUSH HANDPAWSI started making handpaws using the Kloofsuits 4-finger handpaw pattern, but slowly made changes to each piece to fit my style, until I eventually decided to just make my own pattern! You will see elements of Kloofsuits' pattern pieces used and credited for my older paws, but my newer paws have since shifted to my original pattern!My style for making paws is large, with angular shapes and big claws! Materials for claws and pads is fleece by default, but can be upgraded to minky or vinyl!$200 base price+ $30 for claws

The Kupferbeast 4 finger monster paw pattern, can add an optional decorative dew claw.Same prices & upgrades as above.
FIVE FINGER HANDPAWSThe Kloofsuits 5 finger handpaw pattern, modified to fit my style.
Most of the examples for this pattern are older, so newer pairs will be higher quality and more angular to fit my current fursuit making style, like the first pair pictured.Same prices and upgrades as above.
