Mascot
[edit]
The mascot of FC Tekstilshchik is a boy doll named Vanek.
Vanek has supported the Ivanovo team since 2022. Vanek is a yard hooligan kid – smiling, wearing a cap, hands in his pockets and, is of course, a passionate and loyal Tekstilshchik fan. His clothes are intended to resemble early 20th-century English workers. The name of the character corresponds to the name of the city, which emphasizes the proximity to the region.
