When you first begin thinking about how beneficial a mascot could be to your organization you will likely consider the frequency that the mascot costume will be used. You may start to think about whether it would be more beneficial to rent a mascot costume or to buy one.
There are a lot of things to take into consideration before making this type of decision. You need to think about the mascot’s lifespan with your company, how often it will be used, and how unique you want your mascot to be from other organizations mascot costumes.
We have come up with a pros and cons list that will help you decide which route best fits your organization’s needs.
Renting a Mascot Costume
Pros to renting a costume include:
- Beneficial for a single event or limited use.
- Cost-efficient if it will be used infrequently.
- Renting a mascot will allow you to test how your target audience will react to a mascot representing your organization. Does this mascot help during a sales regime or presentation? Be sure to find one that is well-maintained and will represent your organization.
- You don’t have the responsibility to maintain and repair the costume.
- You don’t have to commit to a single character.
- You need to consider how many times the rented costume has been worn and by how many different individuals.
- Even though you will not have to personally maintain the costume, if damages do occur you should expect a fee to repair the costume, possibly even a cleaning fee.
- If you rent a mascot costume for multiple occasions, rental fees will add up quite quickly.
- The same costume may not be readily available for use whenever you need it.
- Other organizations could be using the same mascot costume, preventing your organization from being unique.
- Most rented costumes not only have a bit of a worn appearance, but are also stock costumes manufactured in a factory, without the high quality materials, comfort and safety features of a professional custom costume.
The other option is to create and purchase a custom hand-made mascot costume. Once again, everything has a pros and cons list. Let’s take a look.
Buying a Custom Mascot Costume
Pros to owning your own:
- You’re able to customize the hand-made mascot costume to meet your needs.
- You can use your own mascot costume whenever you want, even everyday if you choose to.
If you plan on using the mascot for an extensive period of time, the life-time cost of the mascot costume is lower than renting. - You can use the mascot during multiple campaigns and be unique from your competitors.
- You won’t have ongoing rental fees or trips to the rental shop.
- You will retain copyright to your character and can use its likeness on any promotional material. No one will have a mascot that looks exactly like yours.
- The quality of the costume will provide a far superior and safe experience for your performers than a rented stock costume. The more comfortable your performer is, the better the performance!
- The appearance of a professional custom costume will represent your organization better than a rental stock costume. This will encourage your team/fans/audience to embrace the mascot much more easily.
- A custom mascot costume can not only represent your organization by proudly displaying your logo, but you can give the character a distinct personality with a great facial expression. Most rental stock costumes have a very plain expression.
Here are some possible cons of owning your own custom mascot costume:
- Creating a custom mascot costume can be expensive, depending on how many add-ons you want.
- You are committed to the design you choose once the mascot has been produced, at least until you wish to upgrade to a new design.
- You are responsible for maintaining and repairing the mascot costume. This is important in order to increase the longevity of the costume.
- You must store and transport your custom mascot costume in an appropriate manner.
As you can see, each area has many valid pros and cons. For those who are thinking of using a mascot on a more permanent basis, buying a custom mascot costume is definitely the route to go.

Pros to renting a costume include:
For instance, the golden arches of McDonald's or the bitten apple of Apple Inc. have become instantly recognizable worldwide. Symbols can also be found in everyday objects and activities. Traffic signs, for instance, use universal symbols to convey warnings, instructions, and regulations. The red octagon shape of a stop sign is universally known to indicate the need to halt, while the green circular shape of a traffic light signals the go-ahead. Furthermore, symbols hold cultural significance and can convey a sense of tradition and heritage. The national flags of countries represent their values, history, and identity. Symbols such as flowers, animals, colors, or landmarks can also be associated with specific regions or countries. In addition to external symbols, personal symbols are adopted by individuals to represent their beliefs, aspirations, or memories. Tattoos, jewelry, or clothing choices can include symbols that hold personal meaning to the wearer, serving as a form of self-expression. In conclusion, pasan symbols are ever-present in everyday life. They serve various purposes, whether for communication, spiritual expression, or personal representation. Understanding and recognizing these symbols can enhance our understanding of different cultures, promote effective communication, and enrich our overall experience of life..
Reviews for "The Role of Religious Symbols in Everyday Life"
1. Samantha - 2/5 stars - I was really excited to read "Pasan symbols in everyday life" based on all the hype, but I found it incredibly disappointing. The story was confusing and the characters were underdeveloped. I felt like I was reading a jumbled mess of random events that had no real purpose or resolution. The writing style was also hard to follow, with long meandering sentences that made it difficult to stay engaged. Overall, I just didn't connect with this book and wouldn't recommend it to others.
2. John - 1/5 stars - I couldn't get through "Pasan symbols in everyday life". The plot was convoluted, the characters were unlikable, and the writing was pretentious. The author seemed more interested in showing off their knowledge of obscure literary references than telling a cohesive story. I found myself constantly lost and uninterested in what was happening. I tried to push through, but ultimately decided to give up on this book. It just wasn't for me.
3. Emily - 2/5 stars - I'm sorry, but "Pasan symbols in everyday life" was a complete letdown for me. The concept sounded intriguing, but the execution fell flat. The writing was overly dense and filled with unnecessary tangents that distracted from the main plot. The characters were forgettable and lacked depth. I struggled to find any meaning or purpose in the story, and by the end, I was left feeling unsatisfied and confused. I was expecting so much more from this book, and I can't say I would recommend it to others.
