Product Overview
The Mumbles Zippie dog is a well-engineered soft toy specifically designed for the promotional and gifting markets. This mid-brown plush companion is not merely a toy but a professional-grade canvas for customisation. Featuring distinctive floppy ears and contrast detailing on the chest and feet, it provides a high-quality aesthetic suitable for a wide range of corporate and personal applications. The inclusion of a zip at the base allows for the removal of inner stuffing, providing direct access to the chest panel for seamless decoration without compromising the garment's structure.
Key Features
- Soft plush construction: The 100% polyester plush fabric offers a professional, tactile finish that is soft to the touch while remaining durable for long-term display or use.
- Direct decoration access: A discreet zip at the base allows for the removal of internal stuffing, facilitating easy placement for embroidery frames and printing equipment.
- Safety regulated: Fully compliant with EN71 European Toy Safety regulations, ensuring it is appropriate for children of all ages once fasteners are removed.
- Sewn detailing: Features sewn eyes and a contrast nose to ensure safety and longevity, avoiding the use of small plastic components.
Design & Performance
Crafted from 100% polyester plush, this item is designed to maintain its shape and texture even with frequent handling. Standing at a substantial 45cm, it provides a prominent presence for any brand or message. The contrast brown nose and light brown panels on the chest and feet are thoughtfully integrated to provide visual interest while leaving a clear 15 x 15cm area for customisation. The mechanical design of the 'Zippie' range is a practical solution for decorators, as the removable inner stuffing ensures that the embroidery backing is hidden inside the toy, resulting in a cleaner, more professional finish.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is uniquely suited for both embroidery and print. For a traditional, high-quality professional appearance, we recommend embroidery. The zip-access base allows our technical team to secure the fabric directly into the embroidery frame, ensuring high-precision stitching for logos or names. This method is particularly effective for creating a durable, textured finish that withstands the test of time.
Alternatively, the light brown chest panel is an excellent surface for printing. Large, bold designs or colourful corporate logos can be applied using screen printing or sublimation techniques, both of which are handled by our expert in-house team in Telford. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has specialised in high-quality branding, ensuring that every product we customise meets our rigorous quality standards.
Use Cases

It is frequently used for school leaver gifts, corporate milestones, or as a high-value item in seasonal Christmas hampers. Its compliance with safety standards also makes it a safe and reliable choice for the baby and toddler sector, or as a personalised gift for children's events.

Practical Advice
When designing your customisation, please note the maximum decoration area of 15 x 15cm on the dog's tummy. For best results, ensure your logo or text is centred within this space. Before giving this item to a child, it is essential to remove all hang tags and their plastic fasteners to ensure the product remains fully compliant with safety guidelines.
Caring for your product
To ensure the longevity of your custom branding and to maintain the softness of the plush fabric, we recommend cleaning this item by hand wash only. Subjecting the product to the mechanical action and high temperatures of a washing machine can cause the polyester fibres to mat and may degrade the quality of the printed or embroidered design.
By hand washing with a mild detergent and allowing the item to air dry, you preserve the integrity of the fabric and ensure that your professional branding remains vibrant and intact for the life of the product.
