Fursuit Materials

dragonmanmike · March 30, 2009, 12:37:22 PM

Hey all, I'm looking to make a fursuit (partial) for a friend of mine and possible offering fursuit commissions in the future. Does anyone know of any good places to buy faux/ fake fur in the greater Vancouver area. I know that Fabricland has a good selection and so does Dressew. What I'd like to know is if anyone knows of any other places on top of those two.

Also does anyone know of any decent online stores that will ship to Canada. I'd like to have to option of being able to find some more unusual colours/ patterns.

I was going to suggest Dressew but seems you already know about it.

Ya I know about them, they are like the best supplier I can find. The only problem is they don't ship to Canada and I don't know anyone in the US thats close enough, that I can get it shipped to. :(

You could always work something out with one of the American furs. I know there are a few that are signed up on these forums. I can also direct you to some at a furmeet if you show up because I know some furs from the states show up sometimes.

If you pay for the shipping, I can get them to you if you order from there. :)

Really!? That would be awesome! Though I did happen to find a Canadian supplier that carries a pretty good selection. But if I happen to need anything I will let you know. :D

Well there are also these stores I only baught from two so I can only say that two of them are guaranteed to ship to Canada.

CRS Craft They ship to Canada. (I ordered form them)
Distinctive Fabric
Mendels Ships to Canada (I order form them)
The Theme Room
Pre Furs

Also another thing is that you can order stuff were they will only ship to the US and use The Letter Carrier to ship it to. Basicaly is it a place in Point Roberts were you ship to and then pay a small fee for the recieving. You can check it all out on there website for more information.
