How We Hand-Make Every Mascot with Love

At Mascot-Store.com, we don’t just make mascots—we raise them. Okay, not literally. But every mascot costume we ship out is handcrafted right here in the USA by a team of humans (yes, real humans!) who know that great mascots don’t come off an assembly line—they’re born from fabric, foam, creativity, and at least three cups of strong coffee.

Let’s take you behind the scenes of our American-made mascot madness.


🧵 Step 1: Sketch, Scribble, and Occasionally Argue About Eyebrow Placement

Before the first stitch is made, our design team sits down to bring your mascot to life. Whether you want a fierce lion, a friendly carrot, or a highly detailed... potato (shoutout to the Oregon Potato Commission), we turn your idea into a lovable 3D character.

Sometimes this step includes serious artistic debates like:

  • “Should the cow have teeth?”

  • “Can a dinosaur wear sunglasses?”

  • “Would a taco wear shoes?”

(Answer: Yes to all.)


✂️ Step 2: Fabric, Foam, and a Whole Lot of Love

We don’t outsource your mascot overseas. We build them right here in the good ol’ U.S. of A.—in the land of freedom, foam cutters, and felt eyebrows.

That means:

  • No flimsy stitching

  • No wonky eyes

  • No “Wait, this looks nothing like the sketch” moments

Instead, you get a mascot that’s comfortable, durable, and maybe even a little too photogenic.


💪 Step 3: Quality Control (aka “Let’s Wrestle a Mascot Suit”)

Before any mascot leaves our workshop, it gets the full test:

  • Arms? Check.

  • Vision? Clear.

  • Is it strong enough to survive a dance battle with a cheerleader? DOUBLE check.

We want every mascot to arrive looking amazing, fitting comfortably, and ready to hype a crowd or decorate a yard.


🧇 Step 4: Ship It Out (After Pancakes, Probably)

Once everything’s perfect, we pack it up and send it on its way—usually after a celebratory high-five and possibly a stack of pancakes.

And boom! Your handmade-in-America mascot is on the road to its new home.


🇺🇸 Why “Made in the USA” Matters to Us

We’re proud to make our costumes here because it means:

  • Better quality

  • Better customer service

  • Faster turnarounds

  • And no waiting weeks to find out your mascot was shipped from somewhere with questionable quality control

It also supports local jobs, small businesses, and coffee shops near our workshop (seriously, we keep them in business).
