Kids Headless Horseman Costume

My son got tons of compliments. It was a very unusual costume in the sea of Elsa, Skeletons, Star Wars, etc. I wilsh the net over the eyes was thinner as it was hard to see through when it got dark. Otgerwise great costume

This item was exactly as I expected, thanks to the reviews of others. The costume arrived at my door less than a week from placing the order with standard shipping, and the seller shipped the item out within two business days. I ordered a size small for my son, who typically wears a size 6. The costume was slightly big on him, but no more than what I would expect for a size 6-8. It fit no differently than any other costume in that size has fit him, so any size discrepancies others seem to have had do not seem to be any different from those you'd expect for an item that covers that range. That being said, my son is on the smaller side and is only about 45" tall, and wore a shirt underneath. So if your child is a size 8 and on the tall or husky side, you may want to size up, especially if you're in a colder area where they'll need to wear layers.I had no issues with the inflatable pieces. They filled and stayed intact the entire night, even when my son decided to go into the bounce house with it on. I did loosely tie the bottom ties to the top ties, which helped to minimize slipping. I would watch your child closely regardless of whether you do this, because it does tie around the neck and could possibly present a choking hazard. We had no such issues.The mask fit fairly well to be a little big. It was creased from being packaged, but I followed the enclosed instructions to "iron" it with a blow dryer, and the problem was resolved to my liking.The only problem was the neck part, which covers the face and lower part of the mask. The material was too thick for my son to see well through or to breathe through. At first, he just pulled it down in between houses, but this was too difficult to keep doing. However, the mask was designed with eyeholes, so he finally pulled the mask down enough to keep his eyes and nose out. Because his face was still partially obscured, he was satisfied that he still looked scary enough. I think that modifying the material on this part of the costume would go a long way towards making this costume work better.All in all, I was very satisfied with the purchase. It was cheaper than a costume at a retail store. In recent years, a child's costume can run twice as much as this, and I've always had to wait for a sale. Unfortunately, that runs the risk of a costume being sold out. This year, my son got to be exactly what he wanted to be, and I didn't have to pay twice as much. I thought at first I would have to make this costume for him (at a local costume store it was at least $40), but this cost no more than material and supplies would have cost, and saved me countless hours of constructing, sewing, and cursing. Bonus.I would order from this seller again. The costume I received was no different in quality from the costumes I've bought in other years from mass retailers like Wal-mart or Target, and the price and availability was much better. The free shipping just solidified my choice, although I admit, I was not looking forward to taking my children into the store and enduring the joy of trying to help reach a decision. I got exactly what I wanted, I paid less, shipping was free, and I didn't have to suffer costume aisle hell. Completely worth it.

CORRECT FOR THE PRICE

I was very hesitant to spend so much for a costume to be worn for one nigh, especially with so many varying reviews. But I’m so glad we went for it!!The costume was delivered quickly and all pieces were in good shape. My daughter is 50”tall and around 55lbs. The size M (8-10) fit perfectly. I was worried about the cape dragging or the top falling too low, but everything fit very well.I was also worried about visibility, but she could see very well. She never tripped or missed a step.The strings that hold the shoulder pads and chest plate in place were silky and kept coming loose, causing one shoulder to slip forward. Not a big deal, no one seemed to notice as they continually showered my daughter with compliments! It also gave us an excuse to step aside, readjust and hydrate!Speaking of compliments, from the moment we left the house we were stopped by people wanting to take her picture or have their picture taken with her. She felt like a celebrity! She also got some special candy and toys from houses for having the best costume.Overall, my daughter had “the best Halloween ever!” and wants to wear it again next year. So, money well spent!!

My son got so many compliments on this costume. He loved it.
