As part of its Mists of Pandaria-branded line of clothing, the gamer swag company known as Jinx is releasing the cute and cozy looking Mists of Pandaria hoodie.
Sporting a black and white color scheme and featuring a hood outfitted with adorable little panda ears, the Mists of Pandaria hoodie is just the thing to help players capture the essence of World of Warcraft's new playable panda race. Non-Warcraft fans will love it too because it provides a great excuse to just hang out all day and relax while chomping on some bamboo chutes.
And if pandas just aren't your thing, there's also the monk hoodie which features a zip up front and decorative toggles inspired by the fantasy world of Pandaria.
Both hoodies will be available to order starting the week of November 9th, 2012.
