ABOUT SHY GUY:

Shy Guys are recognized for their distinctive appearance: they wear red robes and a white mask that conceals most of their face.

First introduced in Super Mario Bros. 2 for the NES (released in 1988), Shy Guy has become a staple of the Mario world and one of the most recognizable enemies alongside Goombas and the Piranha Plant.

How To Dress Like Shy Guy

1. MASK – This look can be made at home with only two essential accessories. One of which is this authentic white mask, complete with that signature mouth and wide eyes.

2. HOODIE – The next essential accessory is a plain red hoodie. We recommend going a size up to get that suitably baggy fit.

3. MITTENS – While we want to make the most Shy Guy outfit possible, we would also like to retain the use of our thumbs. The solution? A pair of mittens. of course!

4. BELT – Add a black or brown leather belt with a prominent gold buckle.

5. SHOES – Next, you will want a pair of plain blue shoes. Preferably with a sturdy sole for all that back-and-forth shuffling you’re about to do.

6. PANTS – Lastly, a pair of plain blue chinos or jeans round out our adorable Shy Guy.
