The Jake the Dog Sweater by Mr. GUGU & Miss Go is but one of many pieces in the brand's Adventure Time collection.
For those of you who aren't familiar with the show, Adventure Time is a brilliantly written cartoon-for-adults airing on the Cartoon Network. As the title suggests, the show follows the adventures of Finn the Human and his adopted brother Jake the Dog, voiced by Jeremy Shada and John DiMaggio, respectively. The duo live in a post-apocalyptic land with a host of other characters, such as Princess Bubblegum (good) and the Ice King (evil). Jake the Dog also as some groovy magical powers that allow him to grow or shrink in size.
The Jake the Dog shirt is perfect for die-hard fans of the show, which is entering its seventh season next year.
