Legend tells of mysterious lights in the night, called Will O' the Wisps.
Here in the swamps, we call them Friar's Lanterns.
Deep in the swamps and bayous, wispy, beautiful, glowing lights appear just past the reeds. They slowly move, with the intention to entice weary travelers, looking for hope.
Those who follow the lights are drawn deeper into the marsh, until the land disappears and every direction looks the same. Most of the time, they never return.
People believe the lights themselves are the danger, but they are wrong. The lights are only the lure.
Something else waits beneath the still marsh water... watching and waiting for an ususpecting traveler to fall victim to its trap.
Friar's Lantern draws its inspiration from one of the oldest names for the mysterious Will-o'-the-Wisp, a legend that has haunted swamps and marshes for centuries. In the lore of Darkwater fins, the story takes on a darker truth.
The lights were never trying to lead you home.
They were the bait.
This tail is part of a limited pre-order release.
Current Estimated production time is 9-12 weeks before shipment.
Each piece is produced in small runs to maintain consistency, detail, and quality from start to finish.
Our swimmable fabric tails are made from from 1 mm four-way stretch buttery soft scuba knit fabric, featuring high-definition sublimation printed designs for vibrant color and realistic scale detail. Each Darkwater Fins tail features our original fluke design and includes a durable internal vinyl monofin casing. Monofins slide easily into the casing and are secured with internal velcro closures, allowing the fluke to move naturally and realistically through the water. All Darkwater Fins fabric tails are made to your custom measurements, ensuring a tailored and secure fit.
