Pumba Costume Guide

How to dress like Pumba from The Lion King.

ABOUT PUMBA:

Pumbaa is a lovable warthog and one of the main characters in Disney’s The Lion King. Known for his kind-hearted and gentle nature, he is Timon’s best friend and embodies the philosophy of “Hakuna Matata,” promoting a carefree lifestyle. Pumbaa is often portrayed as slightly naive but courageous, providing comic relief alongside Timon. 

How To Dress Like Pumba

1. ONESIE – Start your Pumba costume with a nice snuggly onesie in dark brown.

2. GLOVES – Next, add a darker brown pair of leather gloves or similar.

3. EARS – A pair of floppy dog ears work perfectly well for this look.

4. FANGS – While these vampire fangs might not be quite as impressive as Pumba’s tusks they will get the job done.

5. APPLE – Nothing beats roasting a hog over on open fire, just don’t forget the apple in the mouth!

6. NOSE – Add a pig’s nose and your look is almost complete.

7. GEL – The finishing touch, use some extra-strength gel to spike your hair (mane) up and you are ready!
