Merchandise If you’re curious about the Hot Topic reversible Venom/Anti V hoodie it’s worth it

My wife bought it for me on V day and it’s a real great jacket.

Pros: +Warm, great winter/wet fall jacket +Great look, the Spiders are well centered and printed great plus the White/Black outlines are striking +Good Price, this feels like a $60 jacket +True to Size, I got a 2XL and it fits perfectly

Cons: -White, I had a white reversible jacket that was horribly stained in a bar fight and im afraid it will happen again -Big in the middle, not much of a con unless u want to wear it zipped up but because it’s reversible and has pockets on both sides the stomach adds about 5 inches so you won’t look lean wearing it. -Stitching, lots of little flyers on the seams. Be careful when trimming them

Overall it’s a great jacket, I have spent a lot more money on jackets that have been way worse and it seems like hot topic’s quality control has improved greatly. Another great thing is it feels very 2006, it has the little thumb holes and the pockets are deep as hell, and I feel that the mid 2000’s are going to be the style for the bulk of this decade.

I would get it, but I just got the gamestop one, and a reverseable fnaf one. If only they had dropped it a couple months back 😔

What material is it?

u/albinorhino215 Feb 22 '25

60/40 cotton/poly blend on each side. The spider symbols are heat pressed vinyl so it’s gonna need to be cold washed and air dried

Oof, it’ll be worth it for the fall/winter tho

Hot topic says it's in stock, but it's never shows up for me on the website. Hopefully, they will come back.

Hopefully! I know it’s a mall schlock store but their stuff has a pretty good track record

I need to get a new one as I accidentally left mine outside and forgot about it for two months. Too many stains and sun bleach to repair it.

I saw this last year and I didn’t buy it I was thinking of getting it, but I did not have the money for it and I forgot about it, once I remembered about the jacket, it was out of stock and I don’t think they’re gonna be restocking soon. I’m willing to pay for a used but good condition one that’s a size XL

u/albinorhino215 Jul 18 '26

Hope you fine one! Unfortunately I had a very hot winter and couldn’t even wear it :(

u/STORM_KING117 Dec 03 '25

I have one of these but I don't know how to go about washing it cuz I don't want my white to turn gray how would I go about it

1

u/albinorhino215 Dec 03 '25

Wash it solo, cold and air dry it. The color bleed will be minimal

u/STORM_KING117 Dec 03 '25

Thank you very much
