Behind the artwork

About this design

Meet our favorite little night-shift bandit: a raccoon (aka a “trash panda”) clutching a bottle with the words “TRASH PANDA” front and center. It’s playful, a little rowdy, and perfect for anyone who loves woodland critter humor with a wink. The warm, vintage-style art gives it that cozy campfire vibe, even if your “camp” is just the backyard or the couch.

Made for: Fans of raccoons, outdoorsy laughs, costume-party goofiness, and anyone who likes cheeky critter humor (adults and families, with youth options available).

Questions about this design

What’s the joke behind the Trash Panda apparel and gear?
“this design” is a playful nickname for a raccoon, and this artwork leans into that mischievous vibe. The raccoon’s got a confident grin and a bottle labeled “this design,” turning the nickname into a bold, funny statement. It’s perfect if you like your animal humor a little cheeky.
Is this artwork more “cute” or more “chaotic”?
A bit of both. The raccoon is detailed and expressive, but the mood is definitely mischievous and silly. If you want something that gets laughs without being over the top, this one lands nicely.
How do I choose the right size for the Trash Panda merchandise?
On each product page, tap the Size Chart button right beside the size options. That button opens the chart selected for that garment style. If you’re between sizes, we generally recommend sizing up.
