Neoprene Puppy Hood With Collar, Armband and Harness

Awesome and great to play with

This is a nice set for what you pay. It's unabashedly a rip-off of the classic pup hoods from Mr. S and I've admittedly never had one of those so can't make a true comparison, but in the future if/when I need to replace this set I will most likely be buying from them or any other hand-made production. This was a gift for my boyfriend so I will review it based on what he told me, and what we experienced together:Hood: It had a VERY strong chemical smell when it first arrived and nearly two years later the smell is still faintly present (keep in mind we don't use it all that often, maybe once or twice a month if the feeling hits, otherwise I appreciate seeing his handsome face without any obstruction). The hood had some loose seams and some places where they had torn out altogether. The ears were nicely poseable. The snaps for removing the muzzle were a bit stiff for quite a while but have since become more easy to manage. The hood actually came with slight wrinkles in the fabric and they are much more pronounced after prolonged use. I'm not sure if this is a mark of this type of fabric in general, or of bad fabric.Harness: This didn't fit him at all. I mean, it did, but EXTREMELY loosely, and was not attractive. It also bore the same chemical smell and loose seams as the hood. We ended up losing this because it was so unused and unimportant to us that we failed to keep track of it during a move.Cuffs: Same smell. These have received less use than the hood and because of that still have a bit more smell than it. Initially (the first two or three times he wore them) he complained of a persistent itchiness that came from use. I'm unsure of whether he's simply adjusted to it or his sweat washed out the offending agent, but they've been fine lately. They are nicely elastic and have a good fit. Still loose seams present but generally there are no problems.This is not a bad set, but I cannot honestly and in good faith write a shining review of it. I know if a Mr. S set comes with loose seams or other signs of bad craftsmanship you can send it back and receive repairs or replacement. While you could probably send this back, it's not worth the international shipping to do so, and you still risk the chance of receiving a similar dud. Again, this is not a bad set. But if it is within your means to buy a professionally made one, I suggest you do so.

This is a gift for a boy interested in pup play. His favorite color is purple so this felt like a no brainer. The hood and harness look just as expected, and I’m very happy with their material and color. However the collar and arm bands are pink. This will bother me to have a different color set on him. So if you are OCD like me you’ll be disappointed or be ordering a pink hood to match your new pink collar you didn’t ask for in the first place.

Everything came in the box as listed. The arm guards came in a pink color rather purple.
