California Costumes Dog Mail Carrier Costume Usps Large

This dog costume is a licensed USPS mail carrier outfit made from 100% polyester in blue, and it comes with a USPS cap and a cardboard mail box. The large set puts a shirt and front pant sleeves together in one piece, with stuffed arms attached, and it closes with hook and loop fastener down the back. It weighs 295 g (10.4 oz) and is sized for dogs.

What comes in the US Mail Carrier Pup set

• One combined shirt and front pant sleeves piece with attached stuffed arms
• One cap with the USPS logo
• One box sheet that folds into a mail box

How the shirt, arms and mail box are put together

The dog costume is a single piece that covers the body and the front legs, with the stuffed arms sewn in place at the shoulders. A hook and loop strip runs down the back so the shirt opens flat and closes over the dog. Each stuffed paw has its own hook and loop patch, and the cardboard mail box attaches to those patches once the box has been cut out of the sheet and folded.

The shirt carries a USPS logo on the back as well as the logo on the cap, and the polyester shell is listed as lightweight at 295 g (10.4 oz). The box sheet is separate from the fabric parts and is folded into shape before it goes on the paws.

What to check before you order this size

The set is listed as size large, model PET20170 L, and the packed item measures 45.7 x 33 x 5.1 cm (18 x 13 x 2 in). Those figures describe the package rather than the dog, and no chest, neck or back length is given, so measure your dog against the size large chart before you buy. A pet costume of this type is cut for dogs and is not described for cats.

The manufacturer states that the costume cannot be returned once the package has been opened, so confirm the size before the box is opened. The closure runs on hook and loop fastener down the back and at the paws, which lets the shirt be opened and closed again for fitting.

Which parts of the costume are separate pieces?

Does the mail box come as a finished box?

No, it comes as a box sheet that you cut out and fold into the mail box yourself. The folded box then fastens to the stuffed paws with hook and loop patches.

Is the cap attached to the shirt?

The cap is a separate piece with the USPS logo on it, and it is not sewn to the shirt. The shirt carries its own USPS logo on the back.

How does the costume close on the dog?

A hook and loop closure runs down the back of the shirt, and the stuffed paws have hook and loop patches of their own. Both open and close with the same type of fastener.
