Product Information
Full details
The Bristol Novelty Explorer Costume is an ideal choice for children aged 5-6 who enjoy imaginative roleplay and adventure-themed dress-up. Designed for comfort and long play sessions, this polyester-based set features a themed top and matching hat, providing an instant character look. While the costume excels at spark-plugging creativity, buyers should be aware that the outfit consists strictly of the top and hat, meaning you will need to provide your own trousers, footwear, and accessories to complete the look.

Troubleshooting
Hat feels loose during active play

Fabric looks wrinkled after storage
Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, or hang the costume in a steamy bathroom to let the wrinkles relax naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the Bristol Novelty Explorer Costume in top condition, we recommend hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or high-heat tumble drying, as these can compromise the integrity of the fabric and the printed designs. When styling, coordinate the brown outfit with neutral-colored trousers or cargo pants that the child already owns. Because the set is purely decorative, it is compatible with most standard casual playwear underneath, allowing for a personalized adventure look that fits the child's individual style.
