IMC'S Custom Mascot Cooling System & Storage Solutions
High-Frequency Mascot Cooling System & Accessories
Performers spend hours inside a mascot costume during game days, parades, and back-to-back appearances — heat buildup isn’t a minor inconvenience, it’s a real performance and safety factor. IMC’s mascot cooling system is tested and measured, not just marketed: our costume ventilation accessories are proven to cut internal costume temperature by nearly 40°F compared to no ventilation at all.
Extended time in enclosed costumes and protective gear increases the risk of heat-related illness — the CDC’s guidance on heat stress outlines the same warning signs and prevention steps IMC’s cooling systems are designed to address.

FAQs: Mascot Cooling & Storage
How does a mascot cooling system work?
IMC’s cooling systems combine performer-worn cooling vests, evaporative cooling accessories, and battery-powered ventilation fans built into the costume to actively reduce internal heat during performances. Independent testing shows dual-fan ventilation can lower internal costume temperature by nearly 40°F compared to no ventilation.
How long does a mascot cooling vest keep a performer cool?
Our cooling vest with cool pack inserts maintains a lowered temperature for 2–3 hours per use and is ready to use again in 30–40 minutes.
How should mascot costumes be stored and transported?
IMC offers a full line of costume carry bags, rolling cases, shipping cases, and ventilated storage racks designed to protect costumes between appearances and during travel.
What's the difference between a cooling vest and a ventilation fan system?
A cooling vest uses cool packs or evaporative material worn against the body, while a ventilation fan system circulates air inside the costume itself. Many performers in high-frequency use combine both for maximum comfort.
How do I store a mascot costume between uses?
Store costumes in a ventilated bag or rack rather than a sealed container — trapped moisture is the most common cause of costume damage between appearances. IMC’s storage racks and costume stands include ventilated covers designed specifically to prevent this.
What's the best way to transport a mascot costume to events?
For single costumes, a rolling carry bag with multiple compartments keeps components organized and protected. For teams managing several mascots, IMC’s mascot shipping cases offer durable, stackable protection built for repeated transport.
