Electroluminescent wire lighted tails for cosplay, furry, anime and human fandom. Light the night!

I make these tails!

thetaillor.com - lighted tail - wearatail.com

I am theTAILlor and making tails is my game. I make tails for the furry, anime, cosplay and human fandoms.

I've experimented with various styles of tails but it looks like I'm going the lighted route. Lighted tails are great at night and at dance/raves. Considering that up to half a day can be dark, it makes sense to have a tail that can light up.

Electroluminescent wire or EL wire is a recent trend that offers great flexibility and creativity. The wire can be powered by portable battery packs, combined with other wires, cut shorter and come in many colors. It looks similar to neon light but is flexible. It can be glued to fabric or sewn into place. People also use it in their cars, windows, under desks, beds, signs, displays and many more. The only limit to EL wires is your imagination!

Super Mario Racanooki Tanooki Raccoon Hoodie

If you're a child of the 80's or early 90's, you may have fond memories of playing Super Mario 3 for hours on end. What better way to rehash those memories than with an awesome hoodie inspired by the game. The Super Mario Racanooki Tanooki hoodie from 80's tees will bring a smile to you and everyone around you.

One cannot help but want to wag the tail and jump around! The drawstrings around the waist can raise and lower the tail as well as wag it back and forth.

But don't wear this hoodie in the middle of the summer! I did and pass out. Yeah, but this hoodie is warm and fuzzy on a cool day.

People will be mystified by you when you wear this hoodie. Many scream Super Mario! while younger people might be puzzled by your choice of wardrobe. People have thought I was a bear, reindeer, moose or camel. It doesn't matter!

For $50 (regular sizes), you'll be happy you bought this. This is NOT just for Halloween. I wear this hoodie every chance I get. It's a tad bulky with the tail and hood but you just can't beat this hoodie for something unique to wear.
