ABOUT GOOMBA:

Goombas are iconic characters that have appeared alongside Mario ever since the original Super Mario Bros. on the NES in 1985.

They are small, brown mushroom-like characters with oversized feet but no arms. They are vulnerable to being stomped on their heads (aren’t we all?) and are one of the main enemies faced by Mario and his friends.

Throughout the Mario series there have been several different variations of Goombas including Paragoombas, Micro Goombas, and Galoombas.

How To Dress Like Goomba

1. SWEATER – To begin our look we went for a plain brown V-neck sweater.

2. PANTS – Next, add a pair of light khaki pants to get that recognizable contrast between Goomba’s head and body.

3. SLIPPERS – Any excuse to wear slippers to a party, are we right? If you have a large pair of comfy brown slippers then that would be perfect!

4. BEANIE – Slippers and a beanie? Now we really are spoiling you. Any brown, knitted hat will suffice.

5. EYEBROWS – Forever furious at his lot in life (we would be too if we were just minding our business and some plumber jumped on our heads) Goomba’s eyebrows are frozen into a perpetual frown.

6. FANGS – To recreate Goomba’s lower fangs, get yourself a set of fake vampire teeth with dental adhesive. Trust us, they look fantastic!
