The era of the Hippies in the 1960s would not be as memorable without the cartoon series of the mystery solving gang and scaredy lanky dog. The misadventures of Scooby Doo, the famous Great Dane millions of people around the globe adored, would never be complete without Shaggy. And Shaggy is the one character people watched out for his never ending mishaps. Shaggy costumes are a sure way to get that authentic beatnik look this coming Halloween or any costume event.

Norville “Shaggy” Rogers is among the crime solving teenagers called Mystery Inc. He and the gang unfold mysteries with his pet, Scooby Doo. He is known as the cowardly slacker who is more interested in eating rather than finding out the truth about their small town’s secrets. In most episodes of the series, he and Scooby Doo would often wander around sneaking for food while they ironically encounter the key to solving a crime. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why so many people were hooked whether he and his pet would ever realize when the solution is right at their hands. And with such wide fan base, he is the only character apart from Scooby Doo to appear in all variations of the franchise such as action figures, toys, stickers and even a movie.
