Fursuit Care

​General Care

  • BRUSH. YOUR. SUIT! -- do this after every wear and gently brush it before wearing it to maintain optimal awesome!

  • After wearing your suit, spray with a isopropyl alcohol/water/essential oil solution (3:1 alcohol/water, 5-6 drops of essential oil, do not use eucalyptus as it can eat away at the fur.)

    • Head - Leave head upside down and spray gently. Let dry completely before wearing.

    • Hand paws/feet paws -  spray down gently on the inside of the items. Let dry completely before wearing.

    • Full suits/Half suits - turn inside out and spray moderately, then turn it back and spray the outer fur gently. Let dry completely before wearing.

  • When wearing a fursuit, make sure to follow the usual convention rules of 6-2-2.

    • 6 hours of sleep - Fursuiting without enough sleep can be dangerous. Fatigue can cause headaches, dizziness, muscle weakness, impaired decision-making, and even fainting.

    • 2 meals - Not having enough food can make you fatigued!

    • 2 showers a day - it will cut down on sweat and help keep your suit fresh.

 

 

Washing and Cleaning

  • Body suits can be machine washed in cold water with Woolite detergent. Turning a suit inside out can help preserve the fur. Do not add fabric softener.

  • Heads and feet should be hand-washed in cold/cool water.

  • DO NOT USE A CLOTHES DRYER. Air dry your suit gently over two chairs or a drying rack. Do not hang to dry, as this can stretch the fur fabric and create patches.

  • Brush gently halfway through drying, and again when drying is completed. Do not pull on fur while brushing as it can damage the backing underneath.

  • Do not take suit to dry cleaners.

  • Store your suit in a cool, dry environment, away from light. Excessive light can damage fur colors.

  • Improper cleaning procedures can result in a damaged suit and voided warranty. :(
