Most use polyester-based fabrics: examples include 100% polyester faux fur or faux suede. Some listings show blended long-pile faux fur (e.g., 75% polyester/25% acrylic) or other blends (for example, 72% acrylic/28% polyester).

Kid hooded versions can use a diagonal hook-and-loop (Velcro) closure from the neckline, while adult furry jackets commonly have a separating front zipper and an elastic waistband for fit.

Most are single-piece outfits (a tunic or jacket) with sewn-on limbs and decorative features. Additional items like leggings or shoes are typically sold separately.

They often include multiple stuffed or wire-filled legs. Variations include poseable, wire-filled legs at the shoulders; ribbon-connected legs sewn into side seams; or designs listing three stuffed legs sewn into each side seam and linked by clear cord.

Some kid styles include mitts sewn to the sleeve cuffs that can flip back to free the hands when needed, letting the wearer use their hands without removing the costume.

Attachment methods vary: some legs are sewn into the side seams and linked to the sleeves with ribbon so they move when the arms move; others use clear cord or translucent wire beneath the arms to connect stuffed limbs to sleeve movement.
