1st off you purchase this you will win a prize at a contest.

Not too hot,  if you are under 5 ft 11 you will fit very well.  If you are above I'd recommend wearing black sweat pants or wind pants to help cover the legs a bit.

This will shed but not as bad as some have said on here.

Wear Black paint around your eyes.

Buy some Velcro and replace the ties on the back.  I used COSMOS 1 inch Black Sew on Hook and Loop Velcro

If you are a Male cut a hole in the crotch area and use Velcro so you can go to the bathroom without having to take off the costume all the time.

I wore slippers under the slip on feet.

You do what I've said above and you will rate high and enjoy.
