Hot Topic




Hot Topic is a mall-based chain of nearly 700 retail stores in the U.S. They specialize in music-inspired fashion clothing and accessories, band merchandise, gifts, and music for teenagers and young adults. Their merchandise reflects a variety of music-related lifestyles, which include street wear, retro-influenced lounge, punk, club, and gothic. In addition to their selection of rock fashion they have tons of licensed items available only at Hot Topic! Hot Topic has band merchandise from Jimi Hendrix to Green Day to Slipknot, and movie merchandise from Nightmare Before Christmas to Nightmare On Elm Street.

Hot Topic found a niche and its name is music-influenced accessories. Whether it was fingerless gloves like Billy Idol or glam metal bootstraps like Poison, music was definitely the driving force behind teen fashion. After their Westminster customers gave them a reality check, they packed their bags, moved to Montclair, California and rocked their mall with the first Hot Topic store to carry all music-influenced accessories for teens.

About Hot Topic

It all started in 1988. Guns N' Roses, Def Leppard and Bon Jovi were #1 on the charts, and hair scrunchies, bolo ties and aviator sunglasses were everywhere. A ton of junior accessory and apparel chain stores filled shopping malls, but there wasn't a cool accessory store for both guys and girls. Then came Hot Topic.
