i can make pony cloths for some of the gens depends what you want and for what gens and how complicated it is. I tend to hand make so you may want to take that into acount.

i'm needing a football jersey for a g3 and possibly little pants, but those aren't needed as bad as the jersey.

lol i'm making a new york giants pony, i want to find a mini jersey they gave out as a toy in the burger king kids meals a while back, but not even ebay has one. i don't even know if the giants were put in jersey form for the toys or not. it'd be easier to do it that way, but can't seem to find one :(

this is what i have so far, so it just needs the little jersey and maybe some pants. i ordered a football helmet big enough to fit its head, that has the giants logo on it. and ordered some hair for it a few minutes ago.

Cute! I love the football helmet idea!

Maybe someone over in Customs would be able to help out...or I know Tuney is a massive "pony fashion" fan perhaps he ll pop by and point you in the direction of where he gets all his amazing outfits for his ponies.

It's probably better to get a custom jersey than ordering one anyways, unless the one you saw was made to fit a quad.  Ponies need a lot more material across the back and the two sleeves close together, unlike bears/dolls.


Good luck in your hunt, though!  ^.^

i managed to order a football jersey the size of a pony, but if it doesn't fit, would altering it be an option that would be easier?? i would have liked one to have 00 on it and say "PONY" but that'd probably be a little tough... i'll make a thread in the customs area and see if anyone there can help me figure this out.

I've seen xanthestar make some nice crochet clothes for both ponies and dolls.
I'm sure she'd be delighted to help you out.

Oops, sorry I didn't see this sooner Varkolak! I make pony clothes a LOT. I'm an aspiring Costume Designer for people. I don't think that the jersey in pony size will help much, unless you just want to cut out the #. Every time I make pony clothes I think "And THIS is why no one makes clothes for horses." Stiff quadripeds are HARD to clothe. I basically have to couture it for each pony costume I make.
Here's Snape and Draco

The question is: do you want them removable? I think a jersey and little pants sound pretty easy :)  even if you do want them removable. I usually make sure there's a way to check out the pony's cutie mark.

Salli - those are fantastic...I am loving the detailing on the clothes...Draco Malfoy looks wonderful even down to the tie and jumper he has on under his blazer cloak

Oh my gosh, I can't believe how expertly made Snape's cloak is. That must've been interesting to design. Do you have an online portfolio of what you make for people? I'd love to see it.
