Here are 2 stories around their outfits

Lore: their outfits are just things they stole as they’ve grown up on the run.

Mugman’s factory suit was something practical and easy to steal, it’s durable and easy to move in. His straps were used to hold stuff and weapons but after cuphead tricked out their straw guns, he doesn’t keep much on him anymore

Cuphead’s Trenchcoat is from the kettle cottage, and his shoes are from mugman. His pants are old and a little short but stretchy so he gets better movement.

Personal reasons for their designs: i tried to keep what I liked from Quest and added or subtracted what I didn’t like

Mugman’s scarf and cuphead’s coat I’m especially attached to because they simulate the effects you would typically get from hair. It’s Flowy and exaggerates their movements which is important for them since they’re the fighters of the group and will have most of the dynamic poses

I also used their straws as a guide too. Cuphead has a bendy straw (behave 🫵) so his design, outfit, and poses were a little more jagged. Mugman has a straight straw so his outfit had to be a little closer to his body and stiffer.

@nortsauce notes:

I didn’t have much to add to the designs

I was the one who designed Mugman. I wanted to keep his scarf but I also wanted something that showcased the industrial hellscape they lived in partnered with something serious but also aided in mobility and practicality.

the suit also acts in showing how closed off Mugman is. it’s practical as it’s not easily ripped and study, showcasing mugman’s thought process of thinking everything through to an extreme, while also having it be easy to store and washed it being a one-piece and all.
