[Little Caesars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/national-pepperoni-pizza-day) is celebrating its love of pizza with a merch collection that will keep fans comfortable and stylish throughout the season. The collection, which is described as cheesy and campy includes everything from pizza slice sleeping bag blankets and Crazy Bread lounge sets to Little Caesars sherpa and slip-on pizza sneakers.

For the launch of this fun-filled collection, Little Caesars transformed a Milan, Michigan store location into a "Hot-N-Ready Shop," complete with mannequins outfitted in merch and a photoshoot. Now, the styles from the collection can be found on the online Hot-N-Ready Shop, which just launched for the holiday season. With 2020 and 2021 being popular years for loungewear, this merch collection makes gift-giving easy for pizza lovers.
