HEAD
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the head of the costume. If you are reviewing only a set of ears, your answers would also go in this section.
Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear this piece of your costume.
The head fits perfectly and vision, I do have to turn my head to look to the side but vision in front of me is great, and ventilation through the mouth is very good. It's lined with Lycra and keeps me from getting too sweaty. The head is easy to clean inside and out.
Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume piece looks from the outside.
One of my favorite things about this suit is how expressive it is, not to mention the fur is incredibly soft and the shaving is some of the best I've seen! Another feature I love is how vibrant the fur colors are. I can see a tiny bit of backing when I look closely on the upper jaw near the mouth fabric, but you wouldn't know unless you're trying to look. The symmetry is also fantastic in this head.
HANDS AND FEET
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the hands and feet of the costume.
Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
The handpaws are four fingered. The fit is a bit big, but it's nothing that really bothers me that much and not big enough that they slide off. The feet paws have a great fit. Both the hand and feet paws have plastic claws, and they're also lined. It's easy to put all sets of paws on and take them off. They're very durable and despite wearing the partial for many hours at a con and a few local fur meets, they were easy to clean.
Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look from the outside.
As with the head, the hand and feet paws are super soft. The claws all seem pretty sturdy despite accidentally walking into things sometimes. It's my first partial that actually had feet paws so it was something new to get used to.
TAILS
The following questions ask you to explain how satisfied you are with each feature of the tail(s) of the costume.
Wear Satisfaction
Please describe how it is to wear these pieces of your costume.
The tail is comfortable and easy to slip onto a belt
Appearance Satisfaction
Please describe how satisfied you are with how your costume pieces look from the outside.
The tail is quite large and touches the floor when I wear it, but despite being so large it's really lightweight and I enjoy wearing it. Another thing I like about the tail is the length of the fur used and that it's very sparkly! As with the rest of the suit it's easy to brush and clean.
OVERALL SATISFACTION

N/A completion time as it was a premade. The item was shipped, with the tracking number provided, and arrived about a week late. USPS was used to ship the suit.
Are you happy with the product you received?
The Fur Collective has a very unique and beautiful style and their suits are absolutely worth the price. The quality is amazing and I think it'll last for a very long time!
