- Product Description: Roots. That's where this graphic stems from: Jake's childhood years growing up on a sheep farm in St. Cloud, Minnesota. But not just any sheep, Icelandic sheep. Look 'em up. On the Google. They're pretty awesome in a very heavy metal sense. Anyway, the word sheep begets wolf, and the next logical progression is a wolf in sheep's clothing, or, if you're like me, it's only a stone's skip across 10,000 lakes to what else: the Minnesota Timberwolves (as colorfully detailed in the stained ply lay-up). And, last but not least, we engaged with Don Pendleton, the longtime (and Grammy-winning!) artist and creator of the now defunct Darkroom brand, to assist in the graphic to provide a unique hand-off from Jake's former board sponsor to StrangeLove. So, there you have it: A good old fashioned pro model graphic with actual heart and meaning behind it. In 2024, no less! —Cliver
