Learn how you can become a furkig: the anime-inspired costumes that are fast becoming one of the most popular styles in the furry fandom for beginners and veterans alike! Find out what a furkig costume is and how to get started yourself!
Kigs ("kigurumi", not to be confused with the pyjamas) are Japanese costumiers who portray anime characters by using a hard resin head/mask and a full-coverage bodysuit. "Furkigs" are those who use this technique to portray furry characters, and with the growing popularity of human-like fursonas, lower financial entry point, and viral videos on TikTok, they are becoming a more popular choice for Furries. This presentation is a 101 on Furkigs, including their history, pros/cons compared to Fursuits, and how you can get started. We will have Furkig masks and items for display.
