PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- 1 x basketball hoop tabard with backboard panel, ring and net
The basketball, t-shirt, shorts, socks and sneakers shown are not included.
This Kids Basketball Hoop Costume turns your child into a walking basketball court — a wearable backboard with a hoop ring and net hanging off the front. It's a pull-over tabard that goes on over regular clothes in under a minute, no fuss.
The front panel mimics a classic backboard — white panel with red trim and the signature red target square behind the hoop. The orange-red ring holds its shape, with white-and-red string netting hanging below ready to catch any shots thrown its way. Back is a plain panel with open sides so arms stay free.
Perfect For
Book Week & School Sports Days: A fun pick for sports-themed stories, school spirit days or any Book Week parade where your child wants to be the most talked-about costume in line.
Sports carnivals & team events: Stand out at basketball fundraisers, school athletics days, or any sports-themed parade where creative costumes earn house points.
Costume parties & dress-up play: A funny sight-gag costume for Halloween or birthday parties — pair with a friend dressed as a basketball player for instant group costume magic.
How to Wear It
Slip the tabard over any t-shirt and shorts combo — the model here wears a plain white tee and navy shorts, but your child's regular sports kit works just as well. Finish with sneakers and maybe a sweatband if you want to lean into the athletic vibe.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size does this fit?
A: It's one kids size, suiting ages 7-12 (around 130-155cm tall). The tabard measures approx. 52cm long x 58cm wide and sits loosely over clothes.
Q: Can they wear this over their school uniform?
A: Yes — it's a pull-over tabard designed to go on over whatever they're already wearing. Perfect for last-minute Book Week mornings when you need costume-ready in under 5 minutes.
Q: Does the net actually catch basketballs?
A: The net is decorative and part of the costume — it's strung under the hoop ring for visual effect. Not designed for serious gameplay, but perfect for pretend shots and photo ops at parties.
Q: Will this work for dress-up play after the school event?
A: Absolutely. Kids love the interactive nature — friends can toss soft balls or rolled-up socks at the hoop during backyard games. It's a costume that invites participation, not just posing.
