read the reviews that a chemical smell was in some of these suits from the manufacturaer.  got mine and opened it and put my face in the garmet.  smelled like fleece.  took all out of the box.  cooooooooooooooooooooolllllllll.  this is a complete santa suit.
  for the pro's---complete all you need to play santa ( unless you are skinny and then you need to get the santa belly) hat, wig, beard, glasses, jacket, belt, pants and boot covering.  the material is ok but for the price it will last general purpose wear.  if you are going to heavely use this i would step up to the more heavier and thicker suits for longjivity.  overall this is a great suit to play santa in for a couple days of the year.
  the con's----the beard looks good but you can see the elastic threw the hair.  the belt is a thicker vinyal but is durable.  the coat has a zipper and small snaps at the top and bottom which should have a few more stitches thrown in them.  the boot coverings are really good and look realistic--but since i have big and wide feet it did not cover the front 1/4 of my boots.
  for me i got this suit to play santa 3 days out of the year, bought the deluex wig and beard-( don't forget the spirits glue so the kids won't pull it off ) bought the belly and then bought the wide calf boots, white santa gloves and santa bag.  you then will look like the real santa
