The result of something of a thought experiment where I got to thinking on how one were to dress a griffon, if you were to dress them at all.

Of course, with all the fur, feathers, and quadrupedal body, there's totally an argument for even a sapient griffon to just forego clothing altogether...but I've found that doesn't necessarily mean certain awkward questions won't still come up, so I decided that if I can figure out a logical way to clothe a griffon, it'd be worthwhile to look into it.

To that end, I've found very few people even in the world-building/fantasy circles seem to have put much thought into this before now. Most I've found suggest dressing a quadruped in something akin to a horse blanket, but that won't work for a griffon because, you know, wings. Plus I'd figure such a garment would be loose enough to fly around, get tangled up, and otherwise defeat the point of it being there at all in flight. But I also needed it easy enough to do things like bathroom concerns while wearing it too, so it couldn't be too complex either.

So instead, with a bit of contemplating, this is what I've come up with, and put together this "how-to" guide as a fun means of explaining/demonstrating how I'd figure it'd work.

I am totally open to any thoughts, constructive criticisms, or other input offered on this though, which is the other reason I'm posting this--so to get some outside opinions on what I've come up with and whether or not it actually holds up to scrutiny.

Also, the griffon is also Greg, a griffon character I've used before in this comic, in case anyone was wondering.
