Marsh Pants -
Frequently
Asked Questions
Where do you find such amazing fabrics? (back to top)
Pretty much all over the country. I travel a lot. Everywhere I go, I find fabric stores. Some of my favorite cities to find leathers are San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Grand Rapids, Michigan and Kansas City.
Are MarshPants made of REAL leather? (back to top)
Real leather isn’t actually the best fabric to use for pants designed like these. It doesn’t have the stretch necessary to get that ‘painted on’ fit and it’s usually too heavy to make garments in this scale. When I shop for fabrics, I look for faux leathers and suedes that stretch, but still hold their shape, even after a doll’s been sitting in them for an extended period.
Do you make pants out of any other fabric? (back to top)
I sure do! I’m always on the hunt for distinctive stretch denims, brocades or twills that will look great on a doll.
Why don’t you make pants with zippers and pockets? (back to top)
Unlike human bodies, which are soft and squishable, resin bodies don’t give. So a zipper, button, snap, or even a pocket is going to stick up and look bulky under shirts or other garments. I decided early on that I wanted a clean, sexy look to the trousers and skirts I design. Also, one of the most exciting things about BJDs is the creative aspect. Most of my customers like dressing up their rezin!kidz trous with belts, chains and embellishments of their own. So I give them a great fitting trou in a fantastic fabric they can dress up to make their very own.
Can you fit MY doll? (back to top)
I have a huge doll family of my own – all of them very hard working models. I also have a large circle of friends who’ve happily shared their rezin!kidz so I can draft patterns. If I don’t have an actual model of your brand or type of doll, I can usually modify an existing pattern to fit your doll. I guarantee the fit of any trousers I create, so even if it takes more than one try, you’ll end up with a pair of trous that look great on your doll.
How long does it take? What if I want something … unusual? (back to top)
I cut every trouser or skirt to order. That means if you want a special cut or length, I can provide that. It’s not unusual for a customer to ask for a super skinny, or low cut trouser, or even jodhpurs! No matter what you ask for, I can usually ship your trousers in 2-3 days.
Can I order "off the menu?" (back to top)
Absolutely! I may not always say yes, but I’ll consider just about anything.
How much is shipping? (back to top)
First class shipping is always included. Yes, even if you live in Iceland or Fiji. I’ve shipped all over the world and the shipping price is always the same. Zip. Zero. Nada.
What forms of payment do you accept? (back to top)
Most of my customers use PayPal, but I also accept POSTAL Money orders. That means the type you can buy at a post office, whether that’s here in the United States, or an international postal money order.
How much ARE they? (back to top)
Pants and skirts for Tinies like Bambicrony, Petite Ai and Yo-SD are $15, Sub-minis like Little Junior, Narsha and Liebchin are $20, Minis are $25, 60cm range dolls are $30 and the over 60cm rezin!kidz are $35.
Do you discount for large orders? (back to top)
Honestly, no. I do my best to keep my prices low. However, when customers order multiple pairs, or come back to me for more after buying once, I usually include a small surprise gift. Occasionally I run sales – often during special seasons, but sometimes just when a particular theme strikes my fancy. Watch the News section for those. I’ve got all kinds of fun promotions in the works!
