The transformation of a product into a live mascot is made possible using inflatable costumes. This inflatable requires the most complex adaptation. In the character-walkers there are normally a series of manufacturing  “permissions” and proportions that make it easier to move without lessening its spirit. In this case we are talking about transforming a product into a mascot without altering its shape or lessening the possibility of the necessary movements. This design step is the most complicated and is where we put most effort.  The many adaptations that we have carried out since 1997 have helped, although each occasion provides a new challenge. Our clients have commented that the reaction that they provoke, be it from children or adults, is spectacular and highly effective. Beginning with the fact that it is the actual product itself that comes "alive" and communicates with the public, it makes sense that the audience would remember it in much greater detail than a pre-recorded image.
With walkers in general, and this type in particular, there is the option of whether or not to have the arms and legs inflatable. This depends on the shape of the product or on how much it is predicted that the actor will need to move for the action. On occasions that require, for example, descending on skis, ice skating or a race, the actor will go without inflatable legs and will use his or her own.

One of the aspects of the inflatable walkers that should be pointed out is the comfort inside the costume. Unlike furry costumes, these can be used in hot environments as the space inside is roomy and the air is constantly flowing from the turbine, making it much more comfortable for the actor. In addition, it normally weighs notably less.
