I got this for my four year old because she has lots of boy friends who like to play superhero. She's also very particular about the comfort of costumes. Melissa and Doug costumes are always high quality and never scratchy. These are not "disposable" like the ones you buy at a drugstore. At first,I wondered why it didn't have a bottom, but then I realized how hard it would be to fit kids this age who vary so much in height. We had both purple and pink sweatpants already that worked perfectly. There is a reversible fabric mask that comes with it as well. I also like that the cape is detachable.
