In celebration of the [Discovery Channel's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sharkey-temple) Shark Week, the Shark Attack hoodie has been rolled out from the makers of the Mouth Man Hoodies.

The Shark Attack hoodie is a ridiculously cute invention with [graphics silk-screened on the sleeves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsters-collection). When a person crosses their arms, the graphics come together and look like a [vicious shark](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jaws-fragrance) with jaws wide open and poised for attack.

The Mouth Man Hoodies company also sells similar hoodies for different animals such as the less frightening gecko, frog, dog, raptor, cobra and whale.
