I have spent A LOT on costumes in the past so even though this costume was on the lower end of quality, I was happy it will serve it's purpose for a much lower price tag than some costumes we've purchased, which were worn a few times...only.  It's really just a so-so costume made from polyester with a chest plate and cheap mask, however, it was what my son wanted to be and I was happy with the price.  In a nutshell....this little outfit will serve it's intended purpose and that's about it.  If you want something much more durable then consider the "deluxe" versions of these costumes or go to your local Halloween Express or seasonal store for the $60 kind, but for us this one is perfectly fine.  Safety pin some glow sticks to the back and put a few on his ankles and off we go!  :)
