What the Discerning Diablo III Fan is Wearing at BlizzCon 2011

Every year geek clothing companyJinx uses BlizzCon as an excuse to roll out their latest and greatest Blizzard-inspired fashions. This year’s Demon Hunter coat [[link]] and Tyrael hoodie make me want to be a better, thinner man. Over the years Jinx has grown from a company that made licensed t-shirts to a company that designs and manufactures their own clothing line, creating unique and striking pieces that completely kick the ass of any other gamer clothing.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); Take the Demon Hunter coat, a garment perfect for hiding a crossbow, you know, just in case. It’s a hip-length affair with a striking cut, custom buttons, and a cross design on the back to keep demons at bay. It’s the type of garment you pick up even though the triple extra-large makes you look like a stuffed sausage, in the hopes that you’ll actually lose weight once you get home and stop eating convention food. Just throwing out a hypothetical there, of course. The Tyrael hoodie features a nifty two-tone design, a wing design that starts on the front and continues onto the back, and an incredibly sexy [[link]] raised collar that would completely hide the additional chin that’s caused by the issue I mentioned in the previous paragraph. The two pieces made their debut at BlizzCon this weekend, with the Demon [[link]] Hunter running $75 and the Tyrael $60 — prices that will rise once they hit the Jinx website after the show. There’s also a lovely pair of Diablo stockings for sale, but they snag on my leg hair. No, you can’t have pictures. You can contact Michael Fahey, the author of this post, at [email protected].
