Attention! Due to the high demand last time, I am limiting the sale of the fins to 2 fins per person for 3 days so that more people have the opportunity to get a fin.
About the Sample Sale
I'm really pleased that you're interested in my fin prototypes! Since this sample sale is the first of its kind, I'd like to explain a few things in advance. Please take the time to read the following information and the care instructions carefully to avoid making a bad purchase or disappointment.
As the name suggests, the prototypes are not ready for series production, and for me they were a process of getting to grips with the production of mermaid fins. Although I have been working as a designer for mermaid fins since 2018, producing your own product is something completely different. This process was necessary in order to use different fabrics, cuts and techniques. In order for me to be able to develop the product, I sewed it myself, which is why the fins are far from the quality of an industrial seamstress.
The prototypes are therefore primarily aimed at photographers who use the fins to create magical fantasy shoots or experienced mermaids/mermaid men who are used to dealing with large fins and are confident swimmers. Please do not order these prototypes if you have no experience with the sport of mermaiding. Never swim alone and only in safe waters.It is definitely an advantage if you know how to sew, because the probability that a seam could burst is not small.
Important! The fins do not include a monofin or vinyl when ordered.You can either sew in a pocket for your monofin or make your own vinyl inlay. I recommend using a vinyl that is at least 2mm thick. You can find suitable vinyl by googling transparent vinyl table coverings.
Quick guide:
Turn the fin inside out (leave out the very thin ends. You probably won't be able to get the vinyl in there and you'll save yourself the stress of turning the fin inside out again), lay the vinyl over it and trace the outline along the seam line. It's best to cut this out with a scalpel or very sharp scissors. Place the cut vinyl on another vinyl and trace the outline again so that both pieces are identical. Now lay your monofin on the cut vinyl to find the position for your Velcro fastener.

Please never swim without a secured monofin! Failure to follow these rules can lead to serious injuries or even drowning.
