If you've ever dreamed of transforming into a mermaid, these swimming flippers from Urban Outfitters will make your dream feel that much more concrete. The beach accessories are great for snorkeling or scuba diving adventures or poolside photoshoots with a mermaid theme.
Shaped to resemble playful mermaid tails, these swimming flippers are available in two colors -- a burnt yellow and a turquoise -- and are priced $100 per set. While this may not be the most practical pool accessory to invest in, it is reflective of Millennial and Gen Z consumers' recent mermaid obsession.
In addition to these fun flippers, Seapunk fashions and mermaid swimming classes are other examples of our fascination with the mythical sirens.
