The costume is slightly better quality than a lot of what I was seeing in the Halloween stores nearby. It is definitely not designed for everyday play but for Halloween events it's fine. Lots of loose threads hanging off everywhere and I know the stitching won't last long. It's kind of a thick combed polyester, not really flannel but very soft. It is one piece that you pull on over the child's head and then the legs have Velcro closures at a few spots along the inseam. I would say it's pretty easy to put on and take off.
It is very very funny and cute to see a small child wearing a Star Trek costume and so much more entertaining than the same old Spiderman and Buzz Lightyear and Winnie the Pooh (yawn!)This thing started to come apart as soon as I washed it. Luckily I have a sewing machine soo I just reinforced all the stitches but if I had known it was going to fall apart like this I would have just made my own. It would have taken the same amount of time as repairing this one did AND it would have been a better quality fabric. This was made out of thin cheap felt.

Our son wore this costume to a Halloween birthday party and a community fair. He received many compliments. We charged an old flip-style cell phone for him to carry as his communicator. I would recommend having a child wear a t-shirt or shortall under the costume, the closure is a bit rough.Read Best Reviews of Baby and Toddler Captain Kirk Costume Here
Our 17 month old son (32" tall, 30 lbs) wore the toddler costume, and it was a decent fit, slightly big. We added a toy phaser and black boots to complete the outfit. The costume is a one piece outfit that closed at the top at the back of neck with Velcro, and had Velcro closures through the inseam for easy diaper changes. The material was fairly light, and the cuffs and insignia seemed similar to iron on transfer, not that we were expecting anything sewn on. Quite satisfied for the expense.
