How to Dress Like Mick “Mankind” Foley from WWE

Hair:

Mick has light brown curly hair in a long, shaggy 1980’s rocker style to his shoulders with bangs over his eyes. He also has a moustache and beard to match.

You can nail down this pro-wrestler look for yourself either by dying and styling your own hair or wearing a brown cosplay wig.

For the facial hair, you can purchase fake stick-on facial hair or use an eyebrow pencil to draw it onto your face.

For a costume challenge, you can also attempt to grow your own beard.

Missing Teeth:

Mick is infamous for having lost his front teeth in the Hell in a Cell match he’d participated in. Use tooth wax to recreate this look.

You can find tooth wax at costume supply stores or on Amazon.

Outfit:

Mick Foley’s most popular wrestling persona was Cactus Jack. You can purchase Cactus Jack t-shirts online from most retail websites.

He also wears a red and black plaid flannel work shirt along with black jogging pants.

Mask and Accessories:

Mick is well-known for his other wrestling persona, “Mankind”, who wore a brown Hannibal Lecter-style slotted face mask. There is a replica Mankind mask available on Amazon.

Another memorable feature of the Mankind persona was that he had a white sports sock on his hand with a goatee drawn on it with a black marker. Intended to only be a one-time weird joke to annoy an opponent, “Mr. Socko” became wildly popular with fans and the impromptu puppet generated a pop culture following.

You can add this final detail to your own Mick Foley costume by making your own Mr. Socko prop with a plain white sports sock and a black permanent marker to draw a goatee onto it.
