Skins and Shorts

[Jarvis74]

So before you know it, it'll be warm outside everywhere. So that begs the question, "Is it un-skin to wear shorts?" I'm just curious as to what the common thought is...

[DIYWMD]

Are you crazy dude!? NO WAY, NEVER USE SHORTS, only boots and braces matey, and don't forget bleached jeans and your bomber! Just think, have you ever seen roddy moreno use shorts???...I don't think so....

Word. Some chop ovs, Adidas, ankle socks, liten the fuck up, a guinness and a smile and stfu.

I did see a skin once around San Bernadino when we were up that way with 14i's and old school long ass tube socks with the colored stripes. I could not and would not contain my laughter.

I like Ben Davis meself. Maybe a work shirt or a tshirt and sambas.

[Preacher]

I was going to reply with something else wrestling related, but that's the extent of my wrastlin' slang knowledge.

[Thirsty Beaver]

I sport a pair of J. Crew pink shorts with fish skeletons on them. Originally bought them for a fishbone concert a couple of years back.. sure enough they are coming here again this summer!

Best purchase.

[sammienj]

I actually never leave my house so I have no need for clothes. Only when I'm taking 3525634 pictures of the same outfit in different poses. It's the skinhead girl way..

[hatedhooligan]

shorts are fine just dont wear shorts with boots then tuck your shirt in wearing a belt with braces also.. thats a sure way to go wrong

[Einherjar]

I remember there was a picture of Nutter from here on the old board at a show rocking shorts and boots looking like he should have been riding the front of the short bus. That said, there was nothing concealed about his pistol/holster combo, so ah, yeah. That's one extremely well-dressed mofo.

Therapy, much?

[hooligan44]

[Facetothesouth]

No. Indoor soccer shoes are an indoor soccer look. duh.

yeah last year fucking sucked wearing boots after 9am. Whatever feels comfortable and shorts are usually the way I go

[Quadfather]

oh yes
cali totally invented shorts
no one else can wear em

[RuneT]

DePalma makes some nice shorts. I've got a khaki pair. And Dickies makes some short work pants. With those, a wifebeater, a gold chain around my neck, a shirt and a couple of NB sneakers I'm ready to drink beer at the harbor in the summer time.

[belfastskin]

should only wear short tight adidas shorts.

[SDskinhead]

A pair of comfortable shorts and I'm go to go.

[broadstreetbully]

got em on right now,expecting to sweat @ the HCS show...of course we still have 5 inches of snow on the ground,so i usually have a hockey sweater on this time of year..its all about "Layers" to keep warm..

[Anon1]

511s and flip flops work for me.

New Balance? They still sell those things?

Dickies and Chucks is the only way to go in the summer.

Yep. I used to wear a pair for distance running. Ain't got nothing on my track shoes though.

[Danny_Mc]

Hooligan Streetwear (http://www.hooligan.de/cgi/websale6.cgi?shopid=hooligan) make decent clothes, their shorts are nice but at €45 I'll stick with Tesco brand (assuming we ever see any sunshine this summer)

Sure, just got a pair last october.

[TheKid]

Green shorts and sambas or fred perry sneakers is my way to go. I hate cargo shorts though. Rocked my lower 10i docs with my shorts before.

[GuerrillaTattoo]

shorts are a good excuse to wear sandals to work.

[socalsk1nhead]

I got a few different pairs of Dickies shorts and rock them with some fucking black Adidas shell toes. Hell I was even wearing the shorts this winter when a few days in January and February it hit in the 80's out here in LA

somedays you have to wear shorts out here or you'll just be uncomfortable all day..

I've been wearing shorts for the last few days. Low 70s here, and it's hard not to pop out the shorts when you're so damn happy that it finally stopped raining.

And yes, us Californians invented shorts. So fuck off our style other 49. You can keep the Beach Boys though...

[JohnPsycho]

If i wear shorts, i have my socks pulled to my knees...lol wooop!!

I don't give no fuck in the summa. Sprawl fight shorts (of course an assortment is needed) and my AC/DC flip-flops are HIGHLY fashionable if the temp is right. In fact, I'm bringin' the "cutoff sweatshorts" back into the scene...whoop whoop. That oughtta stir things up at the next Bank Holiday beach walk. I'm on the suss buss for sure...........oh wait....

for real....summa has always been the young skins adversary. gotta look the part even in the heat, despite being HOT AS BALLS. Who could tell you were a skin? You'd have to rock the obligatory Skinhead lonsdale logo or band T. The older I got, the more comfort (and the fact that wearing tight levi's and 14 hole boots in 103 degree heat just looked stupid to chicks) seemed to be the way to go. I don't think trying to beat the heat should matter in the slightest. besides....how many skinhead nudists are out there? C'mon....you know they are out there

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YES! I personally will find this guy and start a youth subculture fashion trend.

thank you for that. I think I peed myself

[216 HxC]

i want to move to a warmer part of the country so i can wear shorts every fucking day of the year. i am kind of partial to Dickies and Ecko shorts. Not the ghetto homeboy shorts. They are extremely comfortable and almost always at Salvation Army. Old Navy pants and shorts are awesome, too.

[eastlondonboy]

i would not class any types of shorts as a skinhead look, but then again being english we never really have that problem, i've seen a few dressed like this and to be honest i thought they looked like twats, but hey what do you wanna be hot or look like a twat, ive never got the samba trainer thing that most non british skins seem to deem acceptable, perhaps it comes from fighting cunts wearing them ever saturday night during the 80's
wear what you want though, because i'm sure had it been hotter in england when skinheads first appeared they probably would have had a look for the hotter weather

[Freebooter]

what's goofier is when skins wear braces and sneakers

[Thirsty Beaver]

Therapy, much?

Ska, ska, ska?

[DrBassie]

I'm in Florida. Shorts don't figure in to a sharp look, but it's f'n hot here. Shorts will do for hanging around, but that's it.

This is why I gave up this Skinhead lark. Too many rules and regulations. Oh and the Skinhead look don't go down well with the fit girls.

meh i did okay when i was in england, but i'm not exactly decked out in boots and braces everyday. i usually wear a polo or tee shirt, jeans and trainers with a Harrington or bomber

[StraightSkin]

Have you ever met Dick Dale? You can keep the fucker. The MOST self absorbed cunt I have ever talked to.

But if you're taking Dick Dale I want Slapshot.

[GrottyWanker]

Some people can wear shorts and boots and look decent but most just look hilarious.

[Bound For Cory]

Shit, if it hits the mid 60s I'm wearing shorts and cons. Too old to be uncomfortable all day.

[johnny reggae]

SHOTGODAMNIT I wore sandals whole sumeer and it was al about RSPEK I tell you,R-S-P-E-K :D

[DaddySkin]

What the fuck... I mean...
You can wear a fucking skirt if you want.

I rock my dickies shorts and adidas flip flops all summer. (with socks)

[Ale Star]

I rock Dickies shorts any time it's warm..... not with boots tho... that's just gay

[BillBrasky]

What are PT panties?

They have lots of different names, none of which would make sense. They are short shorts that you wear for PT (physical training), shorter than regular PT shorts that only some units wear.

Wear whatever you want, if you wear something with confidence, you'll have no trouble pulling it off. I'm the only kid who wears his kilt to school. I get a relentless amount of shit from it, but it makes me happy!

why on earth would you wear a skirt to school

[LivenOnPabstBlueRibbon]

If you wear anything besides ox bloods, a black bomber jacket, and bleached 501's with red suspenders you can no longer be a skinhead. Please return your membership card and novelty key-chain to the front desk on your way out.

My point is, nobody else wears one at my school, this does not affect my wearing of said kilt. The original topic was asking if it makes you less of a skin to wear shorts, my reply is; wear what you want, and don't worry about anyone else.
And yes, occasionally I wear my kilt to ska shows, or any shows for that matter.
