Santa Claus Suit

Although in modern times people have come to recognise Santa in a bright red suit with a short jacket, traditionally Santa Claus appeared in longer robes, similar to those of a cleric. Sometimes green, sometimes red, the hood topped cloak was the traditional Santa Claus robes. We think this creates a stunning look and have picked this design for our Santa Claus Costume. In a gloriously rich red with white fur trimming, you will look and feel every inch the real Santa in these majestic robes.

Velvet, Satin and Fur

Made from rich red velvet fabric with satin lining, this super deluxe Santa Suit is trimmed with white faux fur. The suit comes with a belt and boot toppers. However, we have included a quality black belt and fur trimmed, buckled boots we think will beautifully compliment this deluxe, quality Santa Suit.

Description

This Santa Claus suit comprises of a jacket, matching trousers, black belt and boot tops. It does NOT include beard, wig, bell, gloves nor a separate Santa hat. Size-wise this is a standard/large which is equivalent to a gentlemen’s jacket size 40-48. Chest size measures 46″, waist size is 34-36″. The suit is made from 100% Polyester and can be dry cleaned.

Santa Jacket with hood

Your Santa jacket comes in a rich red velvet fabric. It is satin lined and is edged with a white faux fur trim. There are no pockets and it is zipped closure with snaps (press studs). Gold braiding runs along the bottom of the jacket just above the fur trim. A fur trimmed hood comes attached to the jacket in the old-time tradition.

Trousers

The pants that accompany this Santa Claus suit are in the same red velvet fabric as the jacket. With a elasticated waist, these trousers are designed for easy pull and pull off. They have been designed to wear with boots and are long enough to tuck into your Santa Claus boots.

Belt

A wide brown belt with a metal buckle accompanies this Santa suit. It is functional and co-ordinates well with the suit. Some Santa’s may like to invest in a genuine leather belt so we have added a suitable black belt below as an option.

Boot Toppers

Boot Toppers are included in this suit. From a practical point of view this is ideal as one size fits all Santas. In addition, they fit comfortably over your normal leather shoes and quickly transform them into a Santa Boot complete with jingle bells. Some Santas might like to complete such a deluxe suit with a pair of fur trimmed Santa Boots. Check out the Santa Boots we have selected below that come complete with fur trimming and shiny buckles.

Santa Claus Beard and Wig

Santa Claus is a larger than life character. The You may have noticed that when artists draw the image of Santa, much like cartoon characters, his head is disproportionately large to his body. In order to create a true likeness of Santa, it is necessary to recreate that illusion. By wearing a generous beard, a large white wig, white eyebrows and a generous hood, you can create an accurate image of Santa Claus.

The above Santa Suit does not come with a beard nor wig. The Santa Claus beard and wig set we have selected is a great choice for completing your Santa Claus Costume. The red santa hat shown in the image is not included in the set.

Description

This Santa Claus Beard and Wig set is made from synthetic fibre. The set comprises of a full wig, a pair of eyebrows and a full length Santa beard. One size should fit most Santa requirements. This wig and beard can be hand washed.

The Origin of Santa Claus

The original “Santa”, or Saint Nicholas, lived in the fourth century. Known as the gift-giver of Myra, he lived a devout Christian life and was famous for his generosity to the poor. Saint Nicholas is patron saint of many including archers, sailors and children. He is also patron Saint of Amsterdam and Moscow.

Why give presents at Christmas?

The feast day of Saint Nicholas falls on 6th December. During the middle ages, his day was commemorated by bestowing gifts on children, either on the day or on the eve. Due to the reformation, where veneration of Saints was frowned upon by many, the custom of giving gifts to children was moved to December 24th and 25th. The intention was to focus the interest of children to Christ as opposed to a Saint. However, Saint Nicholas, or Santa, has remained popular as gifts bearer to the people. Despite attempts to disassociate present giving with Saint Nicholas on his feast day, it is he we associate with present giving at Christmas.

Santa Claus has many names

In different parts of the world he is known by other names. Father Christmas, Saint Nicholas, Kris Kringle, Sinterklaas or simply Santa, are all based on this Christian Saint. Some people maintain that Santa Claus also absorbed elements of the Germanic god Wodan, who was associated with the pagan festival of Yule and “led the Wild Hunt, a ghostly procession across the sky” ~ Wikipedia.

Origin of the Santa Claus Costume

Santa Claus Costume
‘Santa’s Portrait’ byThomas Nast, published in Harper’s Weekly, 1881

The modern day image of Santa and how he dresses owes much to the influence of the 1823 poem by Clement Clarke Moore entitled “A Visit from Saint Nicholas”, also known as “The Night Before Christmas“. In 1881, the caricaturist and political cartoonist Thomas Nast, illustrated the poem, giving a form to the character of Santa Claus that we recognise today. The immense popularity of the poem re-affirmed this image of Santa Claus. It has been maintained and reinforced ever since through song, television, books, films and advertising.
