We don't just make gear. We make it with the people who use it.
Pack members are the dog parents who move through the world with their dogs every day — on trails, city blocks, and everything in between. They test our products in real conditions, come back with honest feedback, and help us understand what to build next.
They're not here to perform. They're here because they believe the same thing we do: that life is better when you don't leave your dog behind.
What Pack Members Do
They wear Panda Jin gear in real conditions — not for a photoshoot, but for their actual lives. They tell us when something works, and they tell us when it doesn't. That feedback shapes every product we make.
In return, they get early access to new collections, a community of people who share the same values, and gear that keeps getting better because of them.
Maya + ScoutBorder Collie · Denver, CO · @traildog.maya
Maya is a landscape photographer who plans every shoot around where Scout can come too. They've logged over 400 trail miles together in the last year — and Scout has an opinion on every jacket she's ever worn.
"The Storm Shell is the first thing I've put on Scout that she didn't try to shake off. That tells me everything."
Luca + RexFrench Bulldog · New York City · @luca.and.rex
Luca works in architecture and walks Rex twice a day through every kind of weather New York has to offer. He came to Panda Jin because he couldn't find dog gear that fit Rex's build and didn't look like an afterthought.
"Rex is a city dog. He deserves city gear — something that actually looks considered."
Freya + MisoShiba Inu · Pacific Northwest · @vanlife.freya
Freya and Miso have lived out of a van for two years. Seventeen states, four national forests, and one very opinionated dog who refuses to hike in anything uncomfortable.
"When you live small, everything you own has to earn its place. Miso's Panda Jin jacket has earned it."
Jordan + BeauGolden Retriever · Los Angeles, CA · @jordanandbeau
Jordan is a personal trainer who runs with Beau every morning before clients. He joined The Pack because he wanted gear that could keep up with a dog who genuinely doesn't understand the concept of slowing down.
"We've gone through three different jackets. This is the one we kept."
Chloe + NoriCorgi · Seattle, WA · @chloeandnori
Chloe is a product designer who spends her weekends hiking the Cascades and her weekdays walking Nori through Capitol Hill. She joined The Pack because she couldn't stop thinking about why dog gear design was so far behind everything else.
"I design products for a living. Panda Jin is the first dog brand that feels like someone actually thought it through."
Tyler + SageAustralian Shepherd · Portland, OR · @tyler.and.sage
Tyler coaches youth climbing and spends his off days on trails with Sage — a dog who has never once waited to be told it was time to go. He came to Panda Jin looking for gear that could match Sage's pace without slowing either of them down.
"Sage doesn't do slow mornings. I needed gear that didn't either."
Join The Pack
We add new Pack members each season — and we choose based on fit, not follower count.
We're looking for dog parents who:
- Move through the world with their dog, not around them
- Have something honest to say about the gear they use
- Are based in the US and active on Instagram or TikTok
To apply, send us a note at info@thepandajin.com with your name, your dog's name, where you're based, your Instagram or TikTok handle, and one sentence about why you and your dog would be a good fit.
We read every message personally.
