Saturday was my first day as a fursuiter. I made my own fursuit so it was more special to me. I have sociophobia and I am really scared of people watching me, but when I was inside my fursuit all problems were gone for that moment. I have never been so happy in my life. And I made many people smile. So big pro for me: you can be yourself and you can make people smile

One other con you didn't mention, harassment from unwelcoming public and that can lead to either you getting hurt or your suit being destroyed

I don't fursuit, but I do know that overheating can be a huge con. Especially during summer time, which often is when people like to go out and fursuit. Just please stay hydrated babies!!! 💕
Very informative! lots of really good points to consider, especially the one about having to eventually retire the suit.
I feel so blessed to have a fursona whos main character trait is being sleepy so I don't have to spend so much energy being charismatic

Today I made a cardboard head for fun and it's the first time I have made anything like this and I made a moving jaw too. It's pretty fun! I am too young to have a professional head but I can enjoy this while it lasts. My father likes it too! Just imagine a crappy cardboard head made by a person whose never made a head before and no eyes... yup...
OMG I got my second Patron heart!
Fursuit con: Don't wear them when you've got even a little bit of a cold. I haven't been able to wear my suit in two weeks as just taking three steps OUT of suit robs me of all my breath and I'll be panting like I've been running for hours. I put my head on for a few minutes a few days ago out of stubbornness.....and then I ripped it off because I couldn't breathe Q-Q

Alex Randomkat Oh good choice.
The first fursuit I made (my fursona, Sera, a partial), like Adezu, is also a sweaty death-trap. I wore 1.0 to London Comic-Con (I wasn’t brave enough to wear it to MEFCC, you get sweaty in even the lightest cosplay there). Overheated in about 10 minutes, but I did meet 2 lovely suiters and made someone’s day. About 6 months later I did a rap in 1.5 (even worse due to having a bigger muzzle) at my school’s talent competition. I took off the suit in between performances, and by the 4th and final rendition I had become braver and was jumping all over the stage for the 4 minute performance, by the time it was over I was half dead and gasping for air. Carve out the muzzle fellow first-time makers, just do it.
"Fursuits feel awesome!" Me - "Ah yes, being inside a portable sauna in your wearable carpt, such awesome" Jk, I need one lol
9:21 Here's Pocari with your scheduled subtle reminder to BRUSH YOUR SUIT!

Heyo since u made ur own fursuit (congrats!) do u know what kind of foam to buy bc i want to make my own but I have a hard time deciding on foam to use for the head and paws
My therapist is incredibly supportive of my goals to get a fursuit. We're hoping it helps my social anxiety being able to be masked as my best boy Juneberry
I found a maker that makes really cheap suits and is actually quite good at making them. SleepyFurs Fursuit prices: Partial: $300+ Plantigrade full suit: $800+ Digitigrade full suit $1,000+ SleepyFurs Fursuit part prices: Head: $200+ Paws: $30 (Arm sleeves: $25+) Puffy paws: $80 Feet: $100+ Tail: $30+ I may be getting a Artistic Liberty partial suit

I would definitely recommend looking at their past work before commissioning them. They definitely put in a good effort but the heads do appear to be just a bit lopsided, so make sure that it's not enough to bother you.
thanks for this video Pocari, loved this bottle episode, the Fursuit I borrowed from my friend is nearly 14 years old, it is ancient now but it still looks pretty good.

Lil too late for me, considering I'm midway paying off my first suit... lol! This is super informative and I have more than a few people I want to show this video too lol
CON: We're not advanced enough for Pocari's fullsuit to double as a cooler that holds free drinks.
... This may be a little un related but seeing as this video is talking about fur-suits I've decided to make a list of the stores and the items i used to make my fur-suit. Hobby lobby -Foams -hella bunch of glue sticks -plastic buckram Joann's fabrics -quality fur Walmart -shoes -PJ pants -jacket Keep in mind that if you are making your fur-suit you might want to use some tutorials and that different fur-suits may need different stores depending on certain fur colors or if you either don't have one of the stores where you live or if it doesn't carry what you need.

Number 2 happened to me, though it made my year! I saw people public suiting for the first time in my life!!! And I got to say hi to them in the car my mom was driving in. They said hi and waved back! Life changing UwU
2 years later and I'm actually considering getting a suit! When this first came out, I couldn't see myself and a fursuiter, but now im doing a bunch of research while I wait for my dream maker's new prices to be posted! Thx Pocari
A fursuit temp. in the 80's sounds quite comfortable for me XD Except for if I was running around in one in the summertime in the desert. Then not so much...
7:33 'Oh, yay! I'm top of the queue'
I really want to commission my character to be made into a suit, and I want to get the suit made by deerinahat but another con you didnt list, which kinda mixes in with waiting is having to wait for the makers to open for commissions
I’m 13 and my full body fur suit is coming in 2 months and I know about the lack of vision and breathing and drinking water, it doesn’t look that hard to walk in them and stuff but I still asked my mum to be my temporary handler 😂 Also I can’t go fur suiting in a park because there’s mean kids I know that go to my high school and they’re not nice at all…

*fursuiting
a HUGE pro for me, is the fact that I can be outgoing in my partial. I have bad anxiety, and can't talk/interact with people well, but...when I'm in my partial, I find it's a LOT easier to be outgoing! It's like, as soon as i put on the head, all of my fears and anxiety goes away, and I get to run around and be fluffy, and just a h h h h h h h h, I love it!!!
You just made my Day ten times better By uploading. Thanks pocari QwA
im just going to buy the very extremities of my character first, so just tail, wings and ears, it will still be quite fun(not as fun) but it wont be hot, not very hard to transport and much cheaper than a full suit. one day i might get a partial suit but that wont be for a long time. :)
My fursona is very sassy and she isn't very active, she's more if a hip swaying that's it. Also I wouldn't sell her, she's my baby.
For some reason I love it when pocari puts her paws together and they make a little clicking sound...
My first suit (mini partial) is going to be here in a few months. I watched this vid a bit late but with the heat down here I'm now even happier I splurged on some helpful extras.
I'm making my own fursuit for the first time and I'm planning on being a small maker so my family can go on more trips and maybe move into a big house soon. I feel like making Pocari would be really fun and I would be so proud
Pro: god damn adorable pictures
It is very very true that a fursuiter will make peoples days, as my first experience wearing mine two days ago to the store, I got so many smiles and everyone absolutely adored it! They all were super happy, even the people working at the store! It made their days!
One of the best parts for me is that since I'm making my own suit, when it's finished I get to wear my own artwork and express myself with my own creation. :)
Thanks for the tips Pocari and I LOVE your videos
I cane straight here after watching the live stream video and yet I'm still late! It's also pretty neat though that I was watching that video for an hour and you uploaded this 20 minutes ago. That means that you uploaded this while I was watching one of your videos and I find that kinda cool
Loved the video like always!

I'm currently making my first fursuit, I just finished the base for the handpaws and they actually look pretty good for my first time ever dealing with foam. I found some amazing tutorials. But they really are expensive to make, I have to budget out the price and times I need to go to the store to get more supplies.
Omg you look so good in red almost better then blue... almost

I can't get a fursuit for health reasons, but it would be so cool to have my characters come to life.

Those are some interesting pros and cons.
i might get a preloved one now youve persuaded me
tfw you fangirl over seeing your art in the background
Lol I was about to say like 86 degrees isn't really cold but it's not to hot either. I live in Houston and sometimes it gets up to 116 degrees and we still have fun.
I've never worn a fursuit (I'm very new to the fandom, right now I'm just planning) but I can understand that the suit can get hot as Hell (not literally)
I care about u! Not just your fursuit (thou pacari is amazing) I love your sense of humor and personality
I'm waiting for a head base for my quadsuit to arrive it's going to ship from Lithuania on the 20th September ahhhh I can't wait
A big con of having a fursuit with Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (HEDS) is how long you can stay in suit. I work out regularly to keep strengthening my back, shoulders, and hips so I can stay out longer, but my sister, who has it worse than me, can only stay about 10-15 minutes outdoors before coming to the point of exhaustion and pain. But, it's all worth it in the end. All the sweatiness, soreness- it's amazing to make peoples days and have so much fun! We (my sis and I) have been blessed to find the furry community, it's a creative outlet while at the same time giving us a way to make money from art and get regular exercise. Lots of love from Florida, Pocari!
And another con left out: the gods-forsaken vision...
I’m making a piece fur suit which is head paws and tail, the price for the supplies was about 80$ for the fur and foam, and 20$ for the other stuff like wire and padding

Me as soon as a go to con with a fursuit:oh um attention Everyone coming to me asking for a hug*
*screams* I know you commented on my art, but I didn't expect you to include it in your video! The brush strikes again!
You are awesome make more of your videos I love them
I'm super happy because I had a fox with a rainbow tail and I got it for $1400
I'm gonna start making my fursuit today!
That’s true when I first seen a fursuit ever I was amazed it was a skull dog and I got a photo and a hug all when I was only 8!!!
Once I start doing commissions, I am going to try to get it done as fast as I can while trying to make it look good.
"So if you dont like running, or sports, or moving in general, like me, fursuiting is a great way to get active" Me: "Now this sounds like a job for me"
DO ANOTHER FANMAIL UNBOXING!!!! I can't wait for you to get my packagggggeeeee!!!!! ❤️❤️
I feel that, I was at band camp and near the end there's a party thing. I don't have a fur suit but I did have a kazoo and music, and so being the dumb ass I am. I started dancing while playing the kazoo. I was dead with in the first half an hour, and I'm an athletic swimmer.
I saw a dutchie at a pride parade last year. It was amazing cause I was just starting in the furry fandom and already saw an awesome suit!
I actually love ur suit in red
i got a question even though I'm only 11 years old (and I'm not getting a fursuit right now because of that) i still want to know my estimate prise of my fursuit my fursona is a black wolf with black hair tipped in red and a long tail also tipped in red plus he also wears a white bandanna but i don't think that the maker will have to make that (I'll just buy it form somewhere) so yeah if anyone has a good idea of how much that is - wolfie

My (2nd) fursona is a 6'3 (yeah, she is T A L L) gray female kolbold with a predator-like wrist-blade on her right arm. An interaction with her would go something like this: She pulls out her wrist-blade as soon as you speak to her, hopefully you prepared your last will and testament if you approach her because she'll rip out your guts if you come any closer to her. On the battlefield well, she'll look something like the doom slayer in hell. She is meant to embody my temper in a way and how I have violent outbursts when I get irritated enough, and I talking punching the person irritating me Instead of yelling in frustration like most people.
