I’ve been scouring the net for my next mask and have it narrowed down to a creep,shat, or 75k. I’m in need of a larger size at least 25". Justin says he can make a 25" while Nikolas says the biggest 75k is 24.5". I’m wondering if anyone has a 25" creep/shat and how the fit is…and if possible what is the measurement from inside top of head to under the chin. (That’s my issue on masks, the length) Plus having a long beard makes it hard too. Any info/pics would be great! Thanks!!
shave the beard
No way! Lol going for a record!
I have owned both a Shat and a large Creep. My Creep fit better, so I ended up selling my Shat. The Shat was similar in size and fit fine when worn, but it was hard for me to get on and off for some reason. My Creep is the best fitting mask that I’ve owned.
The large Creeps seem to run larger than the Shats, but that is just my experience. Someone correct me if I’m wrong.
I cannot speak for the 75K.
Thanks for your input, yes the creep is definitely on my list!
TLW had a beard and when he wore the Hero it looked wider versus Castle. If memory serves me correct, the Hero was tight also (i.e. a kid’s mask). I have the standard size Creep and it fits like a glove. Maybe all you would need to do is put your chin behind/below the Creep’s chin rest and get more of the Castle Stretch going on…instead of having to order a bigger size. Just a suggestion.
Now with me, I have a pretty short beard and I try to keep my hair a decent length, but I still have trouble getting most of my masks off. I think, for me, it’s just my head shape. I’ve owned and worn (all regular sized) a Creep, an H78, and a Psycho, and they each fit fine, but are a hassle to take off because the rubber likes to cling to the sides of my face. I have a kind of squarish head, so I’m not sure if that had anything to do with it. I also run a 22.5 inch crown and my PropShop PsychopatH2 is the only one that comes off comfortably (though the slit in the back also extends up the back of the hairline). I’ve also owned a large CGP St. Nick, and despite coming off easily, it didn’t fit right because of my smaller head. I also have a short neck, so most of my masks tend to bump my collar bone to some degree. We all wear masks differently, I just don’t really like to wear mine at all though.
Guys whatever you wearing remember…powder them all if the mask fits, with powder it should slide on and off quite easily. Wipe it down after use with a damp towel after use to get all the sweat out. Powder again.
Thanks for all the input guys! My crown measures 23.5" My HalloweeNMan is really tight on me @24"…my nhk is way better and nick says its a 25"mask. I have a freakishly long Wayne static beard but I don’t think it really has much to do with why I can’t pull the mask under my chin. I think I just have a longer face than normal. I just want a mask that just kinda drops on without having to fidget constantly and pull the look in after. Can anyone tell me the measurement of the 25" creep from top to bottom of chin (the length)?
Maybe you should look into masks that were sculpted to have that castle stretch look without actually having to be stretched while worn. The Second Stab and DCSM are all I can remember right off the top of my head but I know there are others.
