Hoodies are probably the comfiest articles of clothing in the entire world, which is why we end up wearing them as often as we can get away with. But no one said hoodies can’t be freaking unbelievably awesome and fashionable at the same time, which is totally what these Samurai Armor Hoodies are.
Produced by bamboo, the vocalist of Japanese punk rock band milktub, the Samurai Armor Hoodies are “creative, durable, warm hoodies from Japan” that will keep you cozy and looking like a badass Japanese samurai.

Though the hoodies had originally been released in the winter of 2015, they sold out completely, prompting the rise of a new and improved set of samurai hoodies. But the new hoodies aren’t available yet — the project is currently still collecting funds through its campaign page.
The hoodies come in red, black, and white, and while they’re casual enough for everyday wear, they’ve also been made to incorporate as many components of the traditional Japanese samurai armor as possible.

The hoodies are all made of 100% cotton and are machine washable, which makes dressing like a sword-swinging samurai even better.
