An inflatable costume or air-inflated costume is a costume that is inflated around the wearer by means of a battery-powered blower that sucks air into the costume. These costumes usually stand 9–10 feet tall when inflated.
Inflatable costumes are typically used by
University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Most NBA
teams own an inflatable costume.
In the UK inflatable costumes are becoming more popular, and many people are wearing them for fun at parties etc. These are smaller versions of the costumes worn by
mascots in the US. They are used by stepping into the costume, turning on the small electric fan and then pulling a drawstring
at the neck, and the costumes quickly inflate.
Popular costumes include the inflatable sumo wrestler, ballerina, cowboy, cow costume, pig costume and chicken costume.
An inflatable tyrannosaurua rex costume was a bestseller on Amazon in the U.S. in 2019.[1]
