The lineup carries long-sleeve T-shirts, sweatshirt pullovers, and cardigans built around villain characters, including Kars, Wamuu, and Esidisi from the Pillar Men, Part 3's DIO, Part 7's Dio, Diavolo, and Pucci. Long-sleeve tees are 1,990 yen with tax, pullovers and cardigans 3,990 yen each, in men's XS through 3XL.","whyItMatters":"The second GU x JoJo collection moves the line from heroes to antagonists and includes Part 7's Dio among the prints, which is the character mix a JoJo apparel drop has not led with before.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eGU split the announced pieces by price and by print. The long-sleeve T-shirts sit at 1,990 yen with tax; the sweatshirt pullovers and the cardigans are 3,990 yen each, all in men\u0026#39;s XS through 3XL. Cardigans carry a one-point placement rather than a full graphic: the Stone Mask and the skull that was printed on Yoshikage Kira\u0026#39;s necktie. GU\u0026#39;s own post framed the collection as grunge styling applied to the manga\u0026#39;s villains, with the brand pointing buyers to a favorites list before the December 11 sale date.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLong-sleeve T-shirts\u003c/strong\u003e: 1,990 yen with tax\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSweatshirt pullovers\u003c/strong\u003e: 3,990 yen with tax\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCardigans\u003c/strong\u003e: 3,990 yen with tax, one-point Stone Mask and Kira necktie skull placement\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKars, Wamuu, Esidisi\u003c/strong\u003e: Pillar Men characters used in the illustrations\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIO (Part 3) and Dio (Part 7)\u003c/strong\u003e: both versions included among the featured villains\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiavolo\u003c/strong\u003e: featured villain illustration\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePucci\u003c/strong\u003e: featured villain illustration\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e","blueskyPost":"GU's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure print puts villain faces on cardigans, not graphic tees.
