Fin Fun Mermaidens - Mermaid Tails for Swimming for Women, Teens and Adults with Monofin

Anyway, I was curious what it would be like to be a mermaid, and this was one of the less expensive options so I figured, why not give it a shot?I will say that swimming in this is a LOT harder than normal swimming (so I'd test it out in water that you're very comfortable navigating), as well as it puts pressure on my feet in a way that made it suitable for maybe a half hour of swimming, but really okay for hours. But...it worked nicely. I was able to almost instantly get it on and swim about a pool, and perhaps more importantly (for safety reasons), I was able to get it off again almost instantly when I wanted to.The tail is also pretty, seems well made, and is just generally fun! While I'm guessing there are versions that are probably better if you're *super* into mermaiding, this seems like a solid, entry level option.

We bought this tail for my 9 year old daughter. She is a size 14, we bought size XS Womens and it fits well; though it is a wee bit long, it's easy to scrunch or fold the extra length around the midriff (plus it gives her room to grow). She has used it 4 times since I gave it to her two weeks ago, for up to an hour at a time.The tail is easy to use and wear in the water, though I will admit she is a very good swimmer (two years of YMCA swim lessons). The tail material feels and acts like very good bathing suit, it is a beautiful pattern, and she wears it over a bikini.The tail can be a bit tricky to get on, we put the totally dry tail on a totally dry girl just before slipping in the water. I also suggest practicing getting the tail on and off at home several times before trying it at the pool.The tail tips are firm and feel as though they were reinforced with silicone or rubber, this is a great feature because inserting and removing the monofin is a delicate task.I stay with her in the water while she has on her tail. It's a great reinforcer for practicing dolphin kicks, and she also loves doing "tail splashes". It looks amazong in the water, and she keeps generating crowds of fans, lol.She can take a break from swimming by holding the pool edge or by "standing" on the pool floor, though I hope that, over time, the tail won't break down under the heels. I wish that "heel" area was rubberized as well, but so far it is doing ok.My only warnings to parents would be to stay with your mermaid at all times, just in case, and to watch for the tail as a tail splash can hurt someone accidentally (the monofilament is like a single hard swim flipper); also to take care in removing/inserting the monofin.Our community pool does not allow the tail, but luckily we have several close friends with private pools. Most unguarded pools (like in apartment complexes, condo communities, retirement communities etc) allow, or at least, don't ban, the mermaid tail.Oh yes! The packet of cards, letters of certification, stickers, posters and notes that come with the "FinFun" tail are great! They made my daughter feel very special and she absolutely loves the poster.I would, and already have, recommend the "FinFun" mermaid tail. The tail colors are beautiful, the tail and monofin feel and look professionally made, and overall it looks, feels and acts like a quality product.

Wonderful purchase ^_^. I have always wanted an adult mermaid fin, and this one is is great! It fits well, and the monofin provides good propulsion in the water. It was easy and fun to swim in, and looks great in the water and out. The bottom is pilling a little from standing on the pool bottom, so I recommend wearing it in the same direction each time. 0 complaints, I love it so much I will buy another as soon as the yellow one is available in an extra small 💛.

The media could not be loaded. I love the mermaid tail. It is the best Product I've ever bought. My daughter uses it and she loves it. It's a very pretty color. And when you get 1 with the monofin You don't have to buy another monofin ever Just more colorful tails that you can put on the monofin Lovely product highly recommendrecommend.

I absolutely love this tail color and style. I bought the Black and Yellow tails, but the Yellow one is my favorite. This will be my first tail, and a medium fits me perfect! For reference I am 5' 6in 145-157lbs when I got it. In the picture I got a large Yellow, but returned it for a medium Blackwhich worked way better. The spandex like material makes it easy to slip out if you're struggling to swim, and you can easily remove the monofin and throw the tail cloth in the washer following the instructions for cleaning. Would recommend practicing in a pool. So far it's been very durable, and the color is so vibrant! Overall the functionality is well made for new merfolks of all ages.

We bought our first FunFin in March 2022 in child's large/extra large for my 11 year old ($50). It fit her perfectly and fit matters because you want the plastic monofin, which was included, to stay on snugly, but be able to be "popped off" when needed. She loved it for imaginative play and games with her siblings in the pool. Her sister, who is 13, wanted to join in the fun, but we had to move up to adult sizes for her, which meant a higher price. So we paid $90 for hers, which is actually just one size up, based on the measurements included in the listing. Oh well!The listing was accurate with the measurements and I recommend using them to help you decide on which size to purchase.I read a few reviews about pilling and tearing at the tail, but we haven't experienced any tears, and if there are pills (tiny balls on the material as it starts to break down a bit), we don't notice or care.I wouldn't recommend purchasing the mermaid tail without the monofin if you hope to swim with it. Otherwise, all you've really done is restrict movement in the water, and end up with a floppy, material tail when you are out of the water.I expect to only get one swim season out of them, as the girls are likely to have outgrown the sizes by next year, but Texas summers last 4 - 5 months easy, so that's a doable investment!
