Mascot Buying - Answer
Can schools order multiple mascot costumes?
Key points
- Common multi-order reasons: performer rotation, backup availability, district-wide purchases.
- Identical designs ordered together usually price better per costume.
- Volume pricing exists - terms vary by supplier and project.
- Specify sizes per performer and your event date in the request.
One mascot, one costume is the starting point; programs grow out of it fast. A two-performer rotation for a heavy football and basketball calendar, a backup so appearances never depend on one performer's availability, or a district ordering for several schools - all are standard multi-costume scenarios suppliers handle routinely.
Structuring a multi-costume order
- Decide what you are buying: identical pairs (rotation/backup) or different designs (multiple characters).
- List sizes per performer - a roster is rarely one size.
- Request the order as one project with your event date.
- Ask about volume pricing and whether delivery can be staggered if you only need part of the set early.
- Ask the supplier to match details across identical costumes so the character stays consistent.
For districts and leagues: ordering several mascots at once concentrates the logistics - one quote, one shipment coordination, one set of care guidance to distribute - and gives the volume conversation real weight. Assign one coordinator per school for measurements and delivery.
Multi-order planning
Practical considerations
- Collect every performer's measurements before the order, not after.
- Get volume terms in writing as part of the quote.
- Label costumes internally if they come in different sizes.
- Plan storage and cleaning capacity for two costumes, not one.
