Maker CommunicationRitz is very easy to talk to, requests were made and fulfilled. WIP pictures sent often. Excellent communication throughout. Project Completion TimeETA was on point. Other makers take much longer but Ritz is punctual. Price came with a quick completion time. Overall Project QualityExtremely pleased with quality of fursuit. Colors match the character VERY closely, which I am thankful for. Wear & tear comes with any product, but am very satisfied with how durable the suit is despite long hours of use. Worth every penny. Components Head Wear SatisfactionFursuit head is incredibly comfortable and breathable. Fits my head circumference and is very light due to foam construction. Vision is great, can see most of surroundings through eye mesh. Visual SatisfactionEverything is symmetrical and aligned. Requested hair to be cut shorter on the sides to match my reference sheet, very pleased with end result. Expression is versatile. Material has no issues whatsoever. Eye and tongue color are off from reference art but is not a problem. One-Piece Body Wear SatisfactionBodysuit is extremely comfortable, like wearing a blanket fit to me. Initially bodysuit was short on arms and legs, and also felt tight, but maker later extended those and added more fur to the joints to help. Durable and flexible. Very good. Visual SatisfactionLooks exactly like the reference art. Colors and materials are to my liking. Visually looks great. Hands Wear Satisfaction5 finger handpaws feel really good. Requested finger escapes and cannot stress how much of a lifesaver they are. Comfortable and soft to wear. Visual SatisfactionPawpad material is marine vinyl, there are some stains from escalator rails that are difficult to clean out. Otherwise, looks great. Tail Wear SatisfactionTail curls just like my species. Very light. Visual SatisfactionLooks great. RatingFursuitReview rates by asking the question: Would you recommend this maker? YES This review has been marked with a positive rating. This means the reviewer would recommend Ritz Costumes. Final CommentsI had some parts of the suit adjusted/fixed from time to time, but am very pleased with the suit. Originally commissioned as a partial in 2020 – Head, paws, and tail. Later commissioned the bodysuit in 2022, with a completion time of a few months. Despite the time gap, parts combined flawlessly, looks as if it was made altogether at the same time. HIGHLY recommend Ritz to be your next suit maker! Are you the maker of this item? Would you like to leave an official response? Click here.
