Popeye Costume

The Popeye costume comes from the Popeye the Sailor franchise. It began as a comic strip but eventually became a popular television show and a movie.

Popeye is known for his large, muscular arms that he accredits to eating spinach.

Together with his companion, Olive Oyl, the two tackle obstacles and adventures usually solved by Popeye's strength. Olive Oyl often finds herself in distress, and Popeye has to save her.

Popeye has become one of the most well-known and iconic comic or cartoon characters ever. Many cosplayers love dressing up as Popeye for this reason.

DIY Popeye Costume Guide

Start your Popeye costume with a simple black button-down shirt. Get a red bandana to create a red sailor's collar around the neck and shoulders.

On the short sleeves, use blue tape to create a blue accent around the hem. Pair the top with blue jeans and keep them securely wearing canvas web belts to your waist.

On his feet, Popeye wears a pair of ankle boots. On his head, he wears a captain hat.

Use an eyeliner pencil to draw a temporary anchor tattoo on your arms, and stick a corncob tobacco pipe between your lips to mirror the one he always has with him.

Finally, you can save spinach can koozie to use as a container. Create a spinach label and place it around the can using paper and markers.
