How to DIY Mermaid Man Costume of SpongeBob SquarePants

Ernie, or more commonly known as Mermaid Man, is one of the characters in the SpongeBob SquarePants TV series. He is the star, together with his sidekick, Barnacle Boy, of a TV series within SpongeBob.

The Best Mermaid Man of SpongeBob SquarePants Costume Ideas

Mermaid Man is a superhero TV star and the idol of SpongeBob and Patrick Star. He is already a retired old man by the time Patrick and SpongeBob met him. His appearance is a hilarious parody of Aquaman while his secret lair is a parody of Batman’s Batcave.

Since Mermaid Man is a parody of Aquaman, his appearance is similar to him. It consists of an orange t-shirt, green tights, a pair of green gloves, and black trunks, which is close to the DC superhero’s costume. Mermaid Man’s look, though, also comes with a seashell bra, a yellow belt with an M buckle, and a pair of pink fur slippers. The set is completed with a short grey wig, a purple starfish prop, and a purple body paint to serve as Mermaid Man’s starfish mask.
