Hiro Gato Spandex Collection

[LeotardLover]

Ill look into the front zipper part.

The crotch of the leotards is done a bit different for men than for women of course.

We will have pictures of the different options up soon. I'm also planning to get pictures up of the different mask options.

Kind Regards

Hiro

I see this post was from October.... these pictures are still not available on the website, including the different leg cut options. I've written you a few times asking questions but never get a response. Are you still in business? 

Has anyone from the forum purchased anything?

I ordered from them in early June, received the order mid-July. The only communication I received was the PayPal order confirmation, but ~5wks isn't bad turnaround under the current circumstances. The parcel shipped to me out of a mailing center in SoCal, so assuming it was made in Japan it probably crossed the Pacific in a box with a bunch of other stuff, so not having tracking isn't entirely surprising...

As for the item itself; I ordered a made-to-measure catsuit with shoulder zippers in their "blue burgundy" wetlook fabric. (Shoulder zippers, zomg. Why does nobody else seem to do these? So awesome. Now I want a proper neck-entry suit and my life will be complete. 8)

The fabric's nice - looks the same in person as it does in their pictures, has a nice hand/skin feel. Good stuff. Construction seems OK; no wavy seams, loose threads, or ragged cuts. Easily comparable to the quality of the Fets Fash items I have.

Because I was measuring myself, and everyone maps measurements to actual garment size a bit differently, I had modest expectations about fit. With that said, the suit fits very well. I think I might tweak a few measurements for the next one (mostly to get it a bit snugger), but without having laid it out and double-checked I'd say that I got what I asked for.

HTH!

I'm glad you got what you ordered and are happy.

I really wanted to order from them, but after doing a deep dive on them through social media, I found a few people on Facebook and Cosplay forums who placed orders, 2-3 months passed with no communication. Those who wanted to cancel orders had no response. All thought they lost several hundred dollars but were able to get it back through their credit card companies. 

After reading that, I decided not to order from them.

... when Hiro Gato opened shop online

I heard, that Hiro Gato's shop also disappeared. Or is it back?

I asked some custom questions a couple of months ago and they responded and said they could do almost anything. I was searching for reviews to see what their quality was like, a few comments on Facebook was all I found stating prices were a bit high. Sleeveless tanks, swimsuits and long sleeves were the same price. A lot of people thought tanks should be cheaper.

I just checked, yup they are gone! Shocking! To bad, I was going to place an order.

Okay that's weird... a second ago I typed in hirogato.com and it said "site no longer available"... I did a google search on the domain and it went straight to a working site. So I guess they are back?

Looks like they are online indeed. Let's merge threads...

I'm putting this on my wanted list, can't wait to tie myself up in one of those super nice looking catsuits.
