Be real with yourself: how many times have you copped a jacket because it looked killer in a film… only to wear it once and let it gather dust? Yeah. That sad, forgotten piece in the back of your closet? We’ve all got one.
I nearly skipped it when I first saw the Venom 2 Detroit Lions Varsity Jacket on The Falcon Jackets. But then I pictured that quiet moment in Venom 2—Tom Hardy walking through Detroit like he hadn’t slept in days. No alien goo. No action. Just him in this low-key blue-and-black varsity with a Detroit Lions patch. It didn’t feel like movie magic. It felt like something you’d actually grab on your way out the door.
So I hit “order.”
Best call I’ve made all year.
This jacket doesn’t shout. It just works. The body’s thick, real wool—not that thin, scratchy junk that pills after a couple of wears. Sleeves? Genuine leather. You can tell the second you put it on: it’s soft, tough, and won’t crack when winter hits.
Fit’s dead-on. Not slim-cut, not oversized. I’ve worn it over a hoodie in November and with just a t-shirt in April. Moves with you, never fights you.
I’ve thrown it on for everything: dog walks, late-night snack runs, hanging with friends, even a chill coffee date. Never once felt like I was playing a character. Just felt like me—only better dressed.
And people notice. Not because of Venom. Last Tuesday, a guy at the auto parts store asked, “Where’d you get that jacket?” Zero reference to Eddie Brock. Zero clue it was from a movie. He just thought it looked good.
That’s what The Falcon Jackets pulled off. They didn’t make a gimmick. They made a real, solid varsity jacket inspired by a cool scene—and got every detail right.
Full transparency: it’s not official Marvel or NFL merch (they say that right on the site). But it’s fan-made with serious attention to quality. Buttons feel sturdy. Stitching’s clean and tight. Lining’s smooth—no itching. And the pockets? Actually functional. My phone stays put.
A quick note on care:
- Don’t wash it. Seriously.
- Spot-clean the wool if something spills.
- Wipe the leather sleeves with a damp cloth.
- If it gets really dirty, find a dry cleaner who handles leather.
Do that, and it’ll break in beautifully—getting softer, more comfortable, and more yours the more you wear it.
Sizing’s honest. I’m 5’10”, 170 lbs, and my regular medium fits like it was made for me. Only go up a size if you’re planning to layer heavy underneath.
Bottom line? This Venom 2 Detroit Lions Varsity Jacket from The Falcon Jackets isn’t collecting dust. It’s out there—stained with coffee, scuffed at the cuffs, and racking up real-world miles.
And honestly? It looks better now than it did on day one.
That’s how you know it’s not just another flashy buy. It’s a keeper.
