Wearing a Furry Fursuit For LONGER - 5 Powerful Tips
Fursuiting is the best way to see your fursona come to life and embody your ideal anthropomorphic self. But it is still a physically-intensive activity, so much so that many are hesitant to perform for an extended period of time, or hold off on getting a suit in the first place. However, those who can seemingly suit for hours on end don't have any magical powers; they implement a series of steps to help them last longer while fursuiting!

Reviewing My Fursuit After 6-Months of Ownership!
Dude, the way your eyes follow people on your suit is siiiiiick! I can't sew or craft for shit, but if I ever make a fursuit, I'm stealing that idea
usually at cons I'll fullsuit at least 10-12 hrs straight every day (my personal best is 15 hrs. pretty much if I'm not in my room, I'm in suit! like you say, i start with a full balanced breakfast. i wear my full body underarmour, including balaclava, i take frequent breaks, drink lots of water, eat snacks throughout the day, and use my fan whenever i need some fresh air. i frequently have people, even other suiters come up to me wondering how i can stay in suit ALL day and into the night, even on hot humid summer days. take Finn's advise to heart, it helps immensely!
People ask me this question all the time. I never knew why tho
my sona name came from a gta 5 dialogue
No because a lot of kids get bullied for being furrys so they would want to meet other furrys so it’s not fair for it to just be adults
6:22 Camel pack!
everyone's saying this, but AWU does a great job of mailing out badges! i was only in line for about 4 ish minutes before i got checked in. and there's still desks for those who didn't get their badges mailed or just want a day pass! they scan your badge, check ID, then you're good, easy as that
+1 on the jet fan, its so useful im thinking of getting another one in case the battery in the first one dies
I've been waffling around with the idea of making a partial suit for some time now, and honestly this video is giving me some more confidence to do so! I've been trying to figure out ways that would make fursuiting accessible to me, as I tend to get heat exhaustion easily. Thinking I might have to get that cooling underarmor for myself for sure, even to wear under my regular clothes. I'm also moving to a warmer climate soon, so maybe that will help me acclimate just a little bit. Thanks for all the tips!
I have too many stickers and it’s that I want to find a good place but I do have a sticker book too!
Yay I’m the 350th like
Extremely ironic that a jet fan is terrible for cleaning computers compared to a can of compressed air, but is amazing for fursuiting. I’m making a note of this when I get my suit.
Base layer + ice vest works wonders for keeping cool while fursuiting!
When I was in my late 30s to mid 40s I could wear my fursuit the entire day from suiting up in the mid morning to when I would close down the dance at 2am and that was before cooling vests where a thing for fursuiters. Now that I'm in my mid 50s I'm done as soon as my cooling vest has been fully discharged.
My biggest thing is keeping my spine cold. If it's cold, the rest takes care of itself. I'll typically wear a frozen camel bag over a simple compression shirt and on hot days, put a wet hood over my head under my fursuit head.... occasionally drinking from it will keep the ice from melting
Definitely planning to stick with a partial. My style choices should allow me to avoid poodling at MFF, but at AC? Nah man, there's gonna be shorts.
I just bought a head on Amazon it’s the same color as my tail is black and white and it looks great I love it’s name is Oreo
Oh and it’s a wolf
Neck fan would come in handy as well while fursuiting because you can wear it around your neck but hey thanks for the useful information and advice Finn really appreciate it
Imagine if fursuit fan glasses were a thing 🤔
Oh the blue light looks good
Looks a bit weird pointing the fan directly into an eye 😅 but everything is weird…so being weird in a weird environment…ist that like - x - = + Weird x weird = normal 😜
Base layer is so useful 😮💨😮💨😮💨
"Last all day and all night" -Finn 2024
Just in time, I'm going to a con this month, tksm 💜
So, I used to be prone to heat stroke after spending long times in the heat and alot of manual energy. Would get dizzy, throw up etc. That made me worried about fursuiting at a convention this past week. But I knew that I would get warm, and it was technically only a partial (the body was an animal onesie) so there was no extra foam or fur other than my limbs and head. I put it on in the evening/night and suited for around 90 minutes before getting out of it, taking drink breaks during it. (It was a trial run so I made quite a few mistakes 😅 No straw for the drink, no fan, etc) The next two days I had implemented wearing a neck fan to "eat" and had a straw to easily drink from when I needed a quick refresher. That more than doubled my suit wearing to 4 straight hours! I did need to remove the head and paws and spend an hour recouping before going around the con another hour on one of the days, but still for it being my first summer suiting, I was quite happy with myself! I had never really fursuited until then other than in winter/spring time, so to accomplish such a goal like that in August weather was a treat. I guess long story short, don't be afraid to try suiting. Know your body and know when it's time for a break, but also have fun! This is YOUR character, own it! 😁🤜 I feel that about not liking to eat breakfast.. I do drink Gatorade instead of water, just to get a yummy taste (and maybe a little sugar boost) but I'll look into water flavoring 🤔 And also definitely into a cooling vest. I wore athletic shorts and a light colored shirt, but if not a cooling vest, most definitely need to get body armor.
Getting into suiting very soon
Wow that’s ALOT of packing 😮
Man REALLY want to go to a furry con one day..
Way better than getting us banned from convention locations due to vandalism
I just wanna know where that fur was sourced from, mmmm.... had no luck finding purple that dark before.
I am diabetic, I overheat super fast. I also am in Florida and only fursuit at cons here (with our furry convention happening in the heat of summer). Im poodling. idc if people think Im "breaking the magic", and you know what? Kids have been just as entertained by me even if Im showing my arm skin. Im not getting paid to do this so Im gonna be as comfy as I wanna be.
Thank you for the tips fin. I'm about to upgrade my partial suit to a full plantigrade one and already just wearing my head took me a good 2 months to REALLY get used to the heat and get used to the muzzle in front of my face, I imagine the body suit will also take getting used to. Will invest in heat gear.
I don't got a suit yet, im saving, I am used to being out in weather 100+ degrees for almost 10 hours so i have no idea if I'd be able to , i guess I am going to have to find out lol
Awesome video tips. Love it. Will take these into consideration when I get my suit. Thanks for the tips. Keep up the awesome job.
Question, is it spelled poodling or poodleling? 🐩💜🐾
Hello yes, I'm one of those sickos
10-15 minutes break of sitting in front of a fan and cold water is basically the key tbh. I actually let my fursuit fan blow under my shirt onto my unrderarmor to cool my chest/back while it's sweaty and it feels amazing. I'm not a poodler myself but mini partialing with a long sleeve shirt is really good for times where you wanna fursuit and worry about little set time up and clean up after you're done, and you're gonna feel a LOT cooler without the need for those under/outer layers. Take lots of showers obviously, it helps with clearing off sweat and ickyness. I've thought about getting an icepack vest but I've gotten mixed reception from some fullsuiting friends. I once got a frozen slushy at a pride event (No headless lounges!) and it was basically like recharging to 100%.
Panthers have amazing stamina.
All important tips! Wearing good clothes underneath is so important to the fursuiting experience. I have never fursuited without UnderArmour HeatGear, I also make sure to eat well before, and I do take breaks to hydrate and cool off. My record is 10 hours of fursuiting in one go, but this was at NFC during February, so not in hot weather.
I've had the habit of wearing hoodies very often when I'm out and about for the past 6-7 years, long prior before I started fursuiting last year. Not sure if it helped but I suppose it's just some heat tolerance I've endured here in this tropical country where temperatures can soar to around 30+ degrees Celsius. I've often been told that my body feels hot by those who hug me in suit, but aside from making sure I have a hearty meal, well-hydrated and the essentials like under armor and such, I've had some long sessions myself! I think 4-5 hours is my max so far before I have to go for my next meal or be out of suit for a bit.
0:25 hold on wait a minuet... 😂😂
Guys I think im gonna go to my first guy con next year!!! 🥳🥳🥳
What started the fury trend in the first place jamie
I swear by Underarmor heat gear and also have four little fans in my head which allows me to go all day if I want to. The batteries last and last. On the rest of my full suit the fur is short and no additional padding so is not that warm to wear. A horse btw. Hooves once were a problem but I learned to wear thick socks which makes them snug on my feet so they don't rub my toes sore and blistered/calloused so, again, I can go all day. My tail does come off for extended sitting but I have never needed to remove it. I have good vision and can drink through a straw in my operating mouth (opens with my jaw and closes using springs).
One tip I have from both playing sports and suiting in hot weather is to hydrate STARTING the night before you plan on going all out. It takes 30 min from when you drink water to when you actually start absorbing it fully, but you can only take in so much at once. Starting hydrating the night before ensures you're topping up fully with water. It's also just a good thing to do to prevent most of a hangover.
I love the Big yarn ball 🧶 in the background 😂
That's a dog toy we sell at bosleys 😂
I love seeing the lil novelty shaped fans like popsicles and other fun props! They look like such a cute, fun way to cool down and add a lil extra flair while doing so.
Those are really cute!
