Unboxing the “Birth of Venus” Signature Mermaid Tail by Finfolk Productions

Check it out! I got the “Birth of Venus” Signature mermaid tail from Finfolk Production’s 2022 Summer line! I filmed the unboxing, tried it on, and shared some close-ups of this gorgeous new fabric mermaid tail.

“Birth of Venus” Signature Mermaid Tail Design

Introducing the new “Birth of Venus” mermaid tail by Finfolk Productions! This tail is an absolute dream for someone looking for a neutral tone tail “with gilded golds and aquas throughout”. White scales line the waist and seemingly reflect a silver-blue hue. This quickly turns to a bright teal color that increases in vibrancy across the thigh area. This color blends beautifully into the teal side fins, if you choose to get them, and helps tie in the teal fluke. Lustrous gold scales travel from just above the knee, all the way down the body of the tail. The gold continues down the spines of the “Loreena” fluke, standing out brightly against the vibrant teal background.  The very ends of the teal fluke fade into white.

This tail from Finfolk Production’s 2022 Summer line is their first fabric tail with full length side fins! According to the Finfolk team, these “side fins run in soft waves down almost the entire length of the body”. The dreamy ocean color and style makes me regret not upgrading to full fins! It even had a dorsal option!

The “Birth of Venus” signature mermaid tail is a realistic mermaid tail that looks great for photos and events! Like all Finfolk Signature fabric tails, this swimmable mermaid tail is created from 1mm, 4-way stretch scuba knit with sublimation printed designs that are realistically detailed and vibrant. This means the scales appear 3D and give the illusion of depth.

Photos of the “Birth of Venus” Mermaid Tail

Here are some of my favorite photos of me wearing my Finfolk Productions’ “Birth of Venus” fabric mermaid tail!

The gorgeous “Loreena” fluke is one of my favorites!

The “Birth of Venus” signature tail features Finfolks “Loreena” fluke! This iconic Finfolk designs is one of my favorites- and is the fluke design I chose for my first ever silicone mermaid tail. This classic mermaid silhouette is far from simple, with its beautifully sculpted veins running perfectly curved from scales to tip!

  All Finfolk Signature fabric tails come with a durable vinyl monofin-casing built inside of the tail. This hard but flexible vinyl fills out the fabric perfectly so your monofin can be easily slipped inside and secured with velcro straps. I recommend using a monofin with short, stiff blades such as the FINIS Shooter (which I prefer for these larger flukes) or an Adult Mermaid Linden monofin (a strong swimmer may be able to get away with this one). Remember, quality of monofin will affect quality of tail use (AND SAFETY), so don’t be cheap!

Where to get Finfolk’s “Birth of Venus” Mermaid Tail?

Finfolk Productions does limited releases of new Signature Fabric tail designs 3-4 times per year. The “Birth of Venus” design was made available as part of Finfolk’s Summer 2022 Tail Release on Saturday May 28th. Unfortunately, this design is currently retired. There is always a chance that Finfolk could pull this design out of their vault for a “Tail of the Month” release, so be sure to follow Finfolk on social media for updates! This will also keep you in the know for any upcoming tail releases, where you may just fall in love with a new design! Pro tip: join Finfolk’s Pod Squad to get early access to tail sales for the best chance at snagging your favorite design in your size. Finfolk tail sales typically sell out in the first few hours of going live to the public- pod members beat the rush! Learn more about the types of Finfolk Tails and how to buy them here.

Thinking of getting a Signature Finfolk Fabric Tail?

Here are some things to keep in mind:

• This product is to be used with a monofin by proficient swimmers only. Remember: THE MONOFIN IS NOT INCLUDED, but you will NEED one to swim! You can order one on amazon and swap it out between all your Finfolk fabric tails!
• Check the size chart on Finfolk’s website and have a friend measure you for accuracy. If you are in between sizes, SIZE DOWN.
• Tails with dorsal fins will have a slightly more snug fit.
• Injury or death may occur with improper use. Always follow common sense swimming practices with use of this product. Do not swim alone, or in bodies of water too deep or too hazardous for your abilities. Always swim in lifeguarded areas and with a buddy!

Loreena Fluke dimensions (approximate):

• Length (total):  inches
• Length (top to center velcro): 20 inches
