Power Capes: Review and Giveaway

July 19, 2010 by

I think that every child, especially every little boy should be allowed to feel like a superhero.  It is a normal part of development for a child to imagine themselves as a superhero, to look up to someone that can do anything they want.  This is where Power Capes comes in.  You can create your very own cape picking everything from color, shapes and even the initial of your child. 

I would like to introduce you to super Genghis.  The best little superhero I have ever met.  I will admit that when I received the opportunity to work with Power Capes I was thrilled.  I knew Genghis would like it but to be honest I was not sure how much.

Well he loves it!  As soon as it came in the mail he knew it was his cape like Batman’s and he wanted to wear it to the store that day.  Let me tell you, there is nothing cuter than a 4 year old walking around the store in a cape. 

The cape itself is very well made.  The cape is such a soft material and the stitching around the lightening bolt and his initial is very well done.  The cape is held on by a simple velcro closure that Genghis has no problem putting on and taking off by himself.

PowerCapes is a team of Moms, Dads, Customer Service Heroes, Web Ninjas and Passionate People who have dedicated their lives to helping kids be real super heroes.
Started by Holly Bartman as a way to provide children with personalized super hero capes, PowerCapes has become the #1 destination for authentic super hero wear for kids (and adults, too!)
We have our own manufacturing facility in the Metro Detroit area where our production staff makes each product completely by hand one-at-a-time for children around the world.
