Choose the Right Setup
Compare Digilegs, Creature Legs and Creature Feet side by side. Choose the right performance system based on weight, fit, adjustment, movement style and intended use.
Digilegs
Professional digitigrade reverse-leg stilts designed for repeat professional performance use.
Digilegs are the core all-round system. They are built to create a convincing digitigrade silhouette while maintaining stability. Used across stage and film they are the most streamlined of the leg systems and therefore ideal for creature costume builds and cosplay.
- Weight: 12kg per pair
- Primary use: Digitigrade creature performance and costume builds
- Fit options: Two height ranges and three calf sizes
- Adjustment: Height, balance cable and toe stopper tuning
- Build: Steel / ABS / neoprene with stainless fixings
Creature Legs
Professional suspension stilts engineered for creature performance, motion capture work and demanding production environments.
Creature Legs are the more advanced suspension-focused option. Built to create a convincing digitigrade silhouette while maximizing comfort, these stilts are ideal for motion capture and practical effects. Creature Legs focus on a design that allows extended wear and features enhanced tuning options for enhanced performance.
- Weight: 6.5kg per unit / 13kg per pair
- Primary use: Creature performance and motion capture
- Fit options: Two height options and three calf sizes
- Adjustment: Height, balance cable, foot angle and suspension tuning.
- Build: Steel / ABS / neoprene with stainless fixings
Creature Feet
Lightweight digitigrade performance feet designed for speed, agility and controlled movement.
Creature Feet are the lightest option in the range. They are built for performers who want mobility, speed and a natural digitigrade silhouette without the added bulk of a full reverse-leg system.
- Weight: 2kg per unit / 4kg per pair
- Primary use: Creature performance and Motion Capture work
- Adjustment:Multi-position foot angle, toe block and calf strut adjustability.
- Build: HDPE / ABS / stainless steel with neoprene padding

| Best For | Best all-round choice for professional creature performance and costume builds due to streamlined profile | Best when performer comfort and extended use are a priority. Allows the user to stand still unaided for unlimited amount of time | Best for agility and characters that require a lower shorter limb. Allows the user to stand still unaided for unlimited amount of time |
| Trade-Off | Requires strength, balance, and fitness for optimal use. Prolonged standing is challenging unless paired with the optional flat-foot plate, which still demands more effort than other designs. | Less streamlined, which can add complexity to costume design. The weight and substance can limit quick, agile movement. | Less dramatic lower leg elongation than a full reverse- leg system. Less streamlined, which can make costume builds more challenging |
