horseshoe moustache

Inverted U whiskers

A horseshoe moustache is a full moustache that extends downward in two vertical strips past the corners of the mouth to the jawline, forming a shape resembling an inverted horseshoe.

The style leaves the chin bare, distinguishing it from a goatee.

It's associated with bikers, wrestlers, and a rugged masculine aesthetic: He grew a horseshoe moustache to complete the Hulk Hogan look.
