FAQs

Q: What are fursuits?

A: A fursuit is a high quality animal costume, similar to a mascot's costume. It is a work of art that you can wear and perform in. Fursuits are typically custom-built to fit the performer and to replicate the performer's character.

Fursuits can be made in many artistic styles, the most common being: Toony, Realistic, Semi-Realistic, and Kemono. A fursuit in the toony style will have the look of a cartoon animal, so it will often have exaggerated features. The realistic style closely resembles nature, in that the fur-suit will almost look like a real animal. The semi-realistic style is a mixture of the toony and realistic styles, which results in a costume that has a balance of natural and unnatural features. The kemono style originated in Japan and is otherwise known as the "anime style". A fur-suit made in the kemono style will look like a Japanese anime character.

Fursuits can also be broken up into three more categories: Full-suit, Half-suit, and Partial. Full-suits are considered a complete costume and cover the wearer's body in total. A typical full-suit consists of a head, a tail, a bodysuit, hands, and feet. Half-suits cover most of the wearer's body except for either the legs or the torso. Half-suits consist of a head, a tail, hands, feet, and either have "pants" or a "shirt". Partials can be a combination of a few different items, but generally a partial would have at least a head, tail, and hands. A partial could also include sleeves for the wearer's arms and a set of feet.

Q: What is a furry?

A: A furry is a person who is considered, or considers themselves, to be part of the "furry fandom". The furry fandom, in a broad sense, includes anyone who enjoys anthropomorphic animals.

Anthropomorphic animals are animals depicted with human-like characteristics. This includes cartoon animals like Bugs Bunny and Sly Cooper. In a more narrow sense, the furry fandom is a mostly web-based community that enjoys performing, creating and viewing animal-based art. A subset of this community performs in animal costumes at conventions, charity events, fur-meets, and local events.

Depending on your age, it may not be a good idea to get a fursuit yet. Unless you have stopped growing, you will grow out of your fursuit quickly and will have spent a lot of money on something you can no longer wear. We suggest waiting until you are at least 14 years old before getting a partial fursuit, and at least 16 years old before getting a full body fursuit.
