NEOERA · WEAR & CARE

岚Everyday use and care

Every suit is handmade. Follow the steps for your series when you wear, wash, and store it, and your character will stay in good shape.

  1. Before you suit up

    Wear a plain white quick-dry athletic layer underneath. It helps the suit go on more easily, and white won’t show through the fur. If you wear a waist cincher or a muscle suit, put it on under the quick-dry layer.

  2. Everyday care for the head and feet

    The head and feet paws usually don’t need washing. After wearing, set them opening side up, spray them with antibacterial spray, and leave them somewhere well ventilated.

  3. Washing the head and feet

    If the head or feet paws do need washing, first remove the detachable eye pieces and the head’s lining. Hand wash them under room-temperature water, blot off the excess water with a towel, and let them air-dry in a dry, well-ventilated place out of direct sun.

  4. Washing the body

    Before washing the body, take out the stuffing inserts from the tail and the digitigrade legs. Machine wash the body in a laundry bag, on a gentle or bulky-items cycle if your machine has one. Air-dry it in a dry, well-ventilated place out of direct sun. Never tumble dry on high heat, or it may shrink.

  5. Tail and other stuffing inserts

    To wash a stuffing insert from the body or tail, take the cotton out first, then machine wash it as normal. If the cotton flattens after long use, add more cotton or replace it with new.

  6. Padding inside the head

    The padding inside the head is removable. Machine wash it in a laundry bag, and never tumble dry it on high heat.

  7. Storage

    Hang the body on a clothes hanger between wears. Don’t leave it folded for long, or it may crease. To lift a crease, sweep a hair dryer’s warm air over it in several short passes.

  8. Repairs and aftercare

    Each suit is handmade, so small loose seams or holes can appear after wearing or washing. If you can sew a little, you can mend them yourself, or contact the studio for aftercare.
