Vest En-route, The Summer Is Saved!
13 years ago
Musings of an old, gray (and black) fursuiter!
I hope!
I had been looking into purchasing a cooling vest and ice packs off of Amazon and found an auction for the exact same item on FurBuy (with extra cooling panels included) at a good starting price. I bid on it & won and just heard back from the seller that it is on its way.
This should really help out with summer suiting and the two cons that I want to attend later this year (early Aug. & late Sept.).
I also invested in an additional diveskin so that I can trade out base garments in between rounds of fursuiting (one can be ready to go while the other is rinsed and hung to dry) as well as a new lycra balaclava that extends past the bottom of my neck. This one I can actually tuck underneath the collar of my diveskin and it stays in place underneath Arlo's head so much better.
In between work and home stuff, I'm sewing velcro patches on the straps of Arlo's parade sandals to keep them from popping open while in use. The end of the straps are just long enough to overhang the buckles by about an inch on each one, but with any moderate movement of the foot they slip out of the buckles and let the sandal flop on my paw. The velcro anchors should help stop this. I love the sandals and want to do more outside suiting with my wolf but I also want those beautiful paws and claws of his protected.
Hope everyone that is gearing up for Anthrocon has a safe trip there and back; tons of fun while you're there and posts lots of journals and photos when you get home for the rest of us to con vicarously with!!
Happy weekend all!
