They had pretty much the coolest Bob Marley jacket I had ever seen there.

Figures that they don't carry XL there.

I still don't understand why people hate Hot Topic so much. :confused: Any store that sells Motorhead and The Damned t-shirts for $9 is worthy of my interest.

You can try to look for an XL version of the jacket on their website? Their online store tends to have a much bigger selection.

Why did you go there if you hate it?

I don't hate Hot Topic, I just hate the average Hot Topic shopper. I buy all kinds of **** from their website. Like another poster said, it's the only place you can find a lot of kick ass tshirts for so cheap.

I was at the Easton Mall in Ohio and looked in the window for lulz and say the greatest Bob Marley apparel ever.

I'm pretty much an idiot for not thinking of looking at their site.

I used to go there for some shirts, but they're dead now to me since they carry unlicensed Dead Kennedys and Black Flag shirts.

I've been in there once. Don't plain on it again. I felt really out of place for wearing white in there. They have good shirts, but I'll pay a bit extra so I don't have step foot in there.

They're the place where I got my Police and Silent Hill shirts and an LP of OK Computer. And supposedly, at one point, they had Talking Heads shirts (which I totally missed... by several years!).

The store's not all bad, but they often carry items I'm not interested in.

Imagine how out of place I felt with my Frank Zappa shirt.

You should get over it. It's not bad at all.

....well maybe it is now, since it seems they stopped selling band stickers, and I need me some stickers for my hard hat.

I hate most of the mechandise available at Hot Topic, it follows too closely to the "trend of the un-trendy" fashion, plus the people who shop there regularly are absolutely ******ed.

They do have some good stuff though if you want to wade through the mountain of BS that comes with it.

Discounted to 9.99 though ><

And it's probably only on there because some people might confuse FZ for some Indie person, unfortunately.

I ONLY go for the band shirts.

They've got a lot of pretty sick looking Metallica shirts.
