January 02, 2023: A man spent a whopping 3,000,000 yen (Rs 18.5 lakh) to look like a wolf walking on hind legs. The highly customised costume was designed by a company known as Zeppet. Their Instagram handle posted pictures of the finished product.
The customer, who did not wish to be named, said, "Because of my love for animals since childhood and some realistic animal suits appearing on TV, I dreamed of ’being one someday’."
"We checked images of real wolves to discuss the smallest details until we incorporated many features in the specifications," he added.
The company took about 50 days to finish making this outfit. The customer revealed that he is mighty impressed with the outcome. "At the final fitting, I was amazed at my transformed self in the mirror. It was a moment when my dream came true. My order to ’look like a real wolf walking on hind legs’ was difficult, but the complete suit looked exactly like what I imagined,” he further added.
"Not only did the specs perfectly cover all of my preferences, but the ventilation slit for the wearer’s comfort and the devices that let the wearer put it on without help showed me that the designers paid close attention to the wearer’s comfort,” he said.
Zeppet indulges in making such bizarre dream costumes for customers. A man named Toco transformed himself into a dog. He paid a whopping Rs 12 lakh for the outfit.
