Add height and soft texture to your uniform with Band Shoppe’s Custom Marabou Stick-Up Feather Shako Plume. Crafted from natural marabou feathers, this plume offers an upright profile with a light, airy appearance reminiscent of traditional military plumes. The feathers extend vertically from the shako, perfect for ensembles that want height with a more structured look than French upright plumes.
Designed to fit any shako with a standard plume socket, each Stick-Up plume includes a heavy-duty wire for secure placement. Available in even lengths from 8 inches to 12 inches and offered in 13 standard colors, this lightweight plume is a great option for youth bands, parade units, and performance groups seeking a softer vertical accent. Custom color options are also available. Call our Band Shoppe Sales Team and we can work with you to create the perfect plume. Options include dye-to-match colors, double-dipped plumes, half-and-half plumes, and more!
Colors shown are for reference only. Please be aware that there will be variations in color due to the nature of the dyes. Feather plumes are not colorfast and should not be worn in the rain. Custom plumes are nonreturnable.

How to Measure
- Prepare the plume:Â Ensure the plume is standing upright on a flat surface.
- Measure the total length:
- Stand a ruler alongside the plume.
- Place your finger on the top of the plume wire.
- —Fountain, Carrousel, Upright, and Stick-Up style shako plumes: Measure the total length, from the tip of the wire to the bottom of the plume socket wire or Tri-wire (the part that’s inserted into the plume socket.)
- —Phantom, Cavalier, Aussie, and Ostrich feather style plumes: Measure the length of the wire or stem NOT including the plume socket wire or Tri-wire.
- Determining size: Plumes are sized in even increments of two inches. If the measurement is not a whole even number, round down to the nearest even inch. For example, an 8.5 inch plume would be sized as an 8 inch plume.
Please measure carefully, custom plumes cannot be modified after production. If you’re unsure about sizing, we recommend sending a sample for evaluation or requesting a comparison sample before placing your order.
All custom plumes are non-returnable or exchangeable.
