Hipsters come from affluent backgrounds, they form a part of the aristocracy: the bigotted, highbrow behavior toward others is tinged with Victorian-era, teleological world views, which is naturally a display of their position in the power relations within society. This statement is emblematic of this subculture in that in the process of attempting to distance themselves from their hereditary, privileged class group, nevertheless continue to exhibit a contemporary version of the same prejudice and exceptionalism which further buttress their position in the social power schema. This is why neighborhoods are often gentrified to accommodate to appeal for the hipster demographic.
Don't drive your '86 chevy over there, the hipsters will tell you how you should ride a bike or drive a hybrid instead.

Sometimes, preppy styles are mixed with casual clothes. When being called a hipster, they always deny it. They either listen to indie rock, alternative rock, hardcore rap, or a really diverse taste of almost anything.
He's such a hipster; I saw him wearing colored skinny jeans at the Vampire Weekend concert in Portland.
