Tails Costume Guide

Dress like Tails with a yellow tank top and joggers, white gloves and a fox costume accessory kit.

ABOUT TAILS:

Tails (real name Miles Prower) was first introduced in Sega’s Sonic the Hedgehog 2 as Sonic’s best friend and sidekick.

He is an anthropomorphic fox with two tails (naturally) which he uses to propel himself high into the sky like a helicopter. He is known for his mechanical skills (even building Sonic his very own biplane) and general intelligence. For anyone who grew up playing the original Sonic sequel, he is also bitterly remembered for losing countless of our rings.

How To Dress Like Tails

1. TANK TOP – To start, we went for a plain orange tank top to show off them foxy gains!

2. JOGGERS – Add a matching pair of orange sweatpants because today we’re cosplaying in style and comfort.

3. FABRIC – To make Tails’s white chest we used regular cotton fabric and cut out a rough oval shape. You can then glue or stitch this onto your vest.

4. RINGS – How many times did Tails and his ineptitude cause us to lose rings? Best keep a couple in the back pocket, just to be safe.

5. FOX ACCESSORIES – Add a pair of furry fox ears and a matching tail. For the best Tails costume possible you are going to want two tails.

6. GLOVES – A pair of white tuxedo gloves work perfectly for this outfit.

7. SHOES – Unfortunately we couldn’t find any Tails-specific shoes but they are nearly identical to the ones worn by his best friend, Sonic.

Tails might not be quite as popular a cosplay choice as his buddy Sonic, but he is a great option if you’re pairing up with a friend or looking to make a cute and cuddly couple’s costume idea.
