    Experts in Making Bespoke Teddy Bears

    We can replicate any existing item, or work from a sketch or design to bring your character to life in the form of a fully bespoke plush animal teddy bear. Choose from ‘traditional’ style sitting and standing bears to fully-jointed bears with moveable limbs. We usually use a curly mohair-type fabric (in various shades) for creating our bespoke stuffed animal bears. However, we’re able to use any fabric (including recycled and organic options) in any pile length and shade (including matching Pantone-matched colours).

    The most common sizes for our soft teddy bear wholesale orders are 6” and 9” (sitting) bears, however there are no size limits to our custom-built bears. We can produce  anything your project requires, from tiny 4” keyrings to life-size custom-made push bears.

    Examples of Our Work

    Our award-winning plush bears use only top-quality, soft materials. We’ve worked on hundreds of toy bear creation projects for a range of prestigious clients. These include pilot bears for the RAF Museum, RAFA and Fleet Air Arm Museum, captain bears for The National Museum of the Royal Navy and Red Funnel, footballer and rugby bears for different sports memorabilia collections, bears carrying first-aid packs, brown bears, black bears, polar bears and pandas. See our gallery for examples of our work.

    Custom Designs and Quality Materials

    Whether your animal toy project is promotional, retail, souvenir or an educational toy, we can bring your ideas to life as a collectable teddy bear. 

    Our team will take your design or concept and turn them into a quality plush toy teddy bear. We only use quality materials to manufacture our soft bears. These include eco-friendly options, such as recycled fabric made from recycled plastic bottles (subject to minimum order quantity), organic cotton and linen. 

    Whether you’re looking to create a classic brown teddy bear for collectors, a tactile, soft plush toy for babies or younger children for cuddles or a special or limited-edition, we can help. There really are countless ways to customise and brand your teddy bear.
