Faith here again, with another internet quest tormenting my soul.
I have seen images of these tails, and this time I tracked it down to what I THINK is the manufacturer.

It appears that they are made by a wetsuit manufacturer company called MyleSports (http://www.mylesports.com/index.php?_m=mod_product&_a=prdlist), that is located in China.
Of course, like most of these factories, I can't seem to find a place to buy them other than Ali.Express (https://th.aliexpress.com/item/Myle-Factory-Own-Design-Swimmable-Mermaid-Tail-Five-Color-Four-Size-to-Choose-DHL-free-shipping/32217710467.html?spm=2114.010208.3.1.TwFZEd&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_4_10056_10 065_10068_10055_10054_10069_10059_10078_10079_1007 3_10017_10080_10070_10082_10081_10060_10061_10052_ 10062_10053_10050_10051,searchweb201603_1&btsid=74df8022-051b-45b4-9dc7-5a4e9dc4ffe0) or alibaba (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/MYLE-mermaid-tail-Swimming-rainbow-color_60305049995.html)
The crappy photoshop advertisements in the description made me laugh though!
It seems like they use the basic finfun knockoff like most other ones that are wholesaled. I can't find a way so far to buy it without the monofin.
Aliexpress or Alibaba doesn't do reviews and I can't find any evidence of actual people besides the models wearing them.
I am wondering if anyone has seen them "irl" or can link me to some reviews, as my QUEST FOR MERMAID KNOWLEDGE NEVER ENDS!

I think you did find the manufacturer. I tried doing a reverse image search for some of the images on the MyleSports site, and all the other results are just alibaba and ebay and similar marketplace sites.

Also, I think it is hilarious that that company also makes neoprene face shapers.

There is a nose one too!:lol:

On the youtubes, I managed to find this. I think the tails are mostly sold in China, yet to see a Westerner in one.
