Tall Tales

Do you want to be larger than life this Halloween? That’s what dressing up is all about. Some people do that by dressing up as a glamorous Hollywood star. Others get in touch with their magic side. Those ideas are great and all but if you want to embrace the “larger” portion of the saying, then dressing up as Babe the Blue Ox from the Paul Bunyan tall tale is a fantastic idea!

The classic lumberjack duo is always taking large to the next level. Their main pastimes were reshaping North America with their giant lumbering ways. Together, they created the Mississippi River, the Great Lakes, and Mount Hood. Oh, they also accidentally created the Grand Canyon when Paul let his ax trail behind him. We’d say, if you’re looking for a costume that’s really going to make an impact, dressing up as Babe the Blue Ox has a pretty good track record!

Design & Details

This unique Made By Us Babe the Blue Ox costume was designed by our in-house creative team. We’re based in Babe’s home state, Minnesota, so we have a lot of love for this colossal beastie. The suit has a high-neck halter with a backless style. Zipping up the back, it’s simple to slip into. Fully transform into an ox with details like a long tail with a tuft of faux fur at the end, detached sleeves with hooves at the end, and a headband with horns and cute little blue ears. Slip into this look and you’ll feel like a homespun living legend!

Babe the Blue Ox is all about spending time in the woods and eating flapjacks. If you and Paul go out on the town, you might get into some wild activities. You could go throw axes or go log rolling. But most importantly, you two will have to finish off any event with a delicious stack of pancakes soaked with real maple syrup! Now, that’s legendary.
