The Ultimate Guide to Padding for Kigurumi (at least for now)

Nevermind, I'll figure it out! This hobby is about experimentation and trying different things. Figured I'd ask to same myself some time.

If I knew what the original question pertained to I'd have a better answer than "Huh?"

Hey Cici!

For context, I'm referring to bullets 6 and 7 on your original post on page 1. They're not linked to examples like the other bullets.

It's actually a two part question. What is a romper? That was answered by BritKig (Thanks!). I understand it to be a type of onesie or jumpsuit, but there are variations that are full body or shorter with a skirt bottom.

The second part of my question was regarding which type (full or short) would make sense for kigurumi usage. I'm guessing full, maybe? I'm kinda confused here.

Well?
I never wear rompers for one.
And from looking at the post ! I've refined my method to the process.
Omitted the term romper and revised the pad count. Will be revising and updating underpinning list.

Sorry for the confusion and remember not all bodies are equally shaped. You may need more or less padding depending on your physic.

Thanks for the update and clarification! I know what shapewear is, but I guess "romper" was what confused me. I appreciate your time and energy in putting the list together, as mentioned before on Etsy when we chatted a bit there. Thanks for the inspiration! It's very helpful!

Hi, can the padding be bought and not made diy? How do you keep it on? And how you hide it down there?

Cici, how did you make M-pad? I would like to know how draw shape and length of mpad like you did made.

Sorry Jack, we stopped producing pads after the costs and labor involved outweighed the overall costs. Plus shipping air around the world became cost prohibitive.

Hey Ren, what we did with the sPad was take the dimensions of the mPad into account when designing it; which are The device measures 9 1/8" L x 8 1/2" W x 1" D.

It's width is different shape in between length's top and bottom. You said W is 8 1/2" is position at bottom of spad. Can you give me other width for top and middle of length in the image?

This is where the creative part of your life needs to kick in.
Have fun and experiment as the studio did creating this!
You may even innovate something that works even better Ren!!!
