Pretty sure the nose on mine might not withstand repeated boops, but depends on what they're made out of. Someone already pointed out something to the extent of how there is more choice in what material is used to make the suit. So, kinda depends on material used.
I'm pretty sure I've seen in the past at least a few suits on the more expensive side using actual hard, boop resistant, materials for the nose. Couldn't tell you the material since I'm not an expert.
Edit: more about 3D printed suit bases instead of just more materials. Whoops.
dude idk. like, it depends. some folk, they still have some proprioception in their fursuits. some people, they take is as license to mosh and smash into people and "oops i couldn't tell where i was". I was in a mummer's play a few christmases. i played the dragon one year. Had to build the suit because the person who played it the previous year stole it. Made the head out of... fuck i can't even remember. A can? half inch foam? a hula hoop? some fabric and some makeup? I was inspired by Gamera but I think people thought ninja turtles. It was sturdy, must've looked pretty decent too because when i checked out the show 20 years later they were still using my shitty old dragon suit, just theseus'd with a few repairs.
