About

Our Story...

Better Choice Costumes is located in Carlsbad, California where its founder worked in the area as a firefighter for 30 years.  Looking to find a balance in the usefulness of child education items (like those plastic fire helmets given to children during fire safety visits!) with the goal of being good stewards of the environment, the company was born.

Better Choice Costumes aims to lower plastic waste and create a range of more earth friendly costume alternatives, specializing in challenging and unique designs.

The current trajectory of plastic waste is a real emergency.  Companies have been manufacturing things cheaply out of plastics for decades, so there are significant challenges.  We're committed to working to make the switch possible.  Please join us in our effort to lower plastic waste while serving this exciting and imagination filled market.
