For someone to claim himself or herself
a skinhead is simply a claim to dedication to the cream of the working class
crop. However, it takes a certain breed of character, not just any joe on
the job, to make what is pridefully known as a skinhead. Skinhead is not
about colour, race, religion, national origin, or anything of the sort,unless you a bonehead or nazi. It is a brotherhood of individuals who share the same passions in what we call
being a skinhead.

Get the skinheadmug. Skinheads! Oi! Oi! Skinheads are people who are usually (or at least should be) part of the working class. Their ideals are simple- working class values and respect for those who share the same beliefs. Skinheads ARE NOT Nazis. Sadly, white supremacist idiots have fucked up the scene though, and think they're the shit because they have shaved heads, talk shit to real skins and S.H.A.R.P. skins, beat up on gays and bums and jump blacks and other minorities in big groups or wear a pair of suspenders/braces or a pair of oxblood Grinders. However, most skinheads ARE NOT racist. The Nazi/white supremacist skins have been called "boneheads" to the rest of the skinhead scene because of the unremovable stain they have cast on a proud group of working class kids. Skinheads are of every race, and originally, most skins were black. Skins are of every religion. In retrospect, skinheads are just working class kids who like all kinds of music (generally ska, reggae, all kinds of punk, oi, and some metal), who just want to unite.

Get the skinheadmug. A fashihion look that begun in 1969. in England, describing the look of the working class.
Short hair is easy to wash, jeans are firm, don't rip easily and wash up easily, boots with caps keep feet safe. Later, laces come in with skins coming to football games (different colour of the laces showed which club they supported).
In the '70. , the look and movement was hijacked by Brittish Nationalist Front, so today we have youth who harvested some sick ideas (nazi and white supremacy ideas).
Today there are more "kinds" of skins: the traditional (working-class), the boneheads (nazi & WP), S.H.A.R.P.s (anti-nazi league), gay skinhead scene...
In it's soul, skinhead movement started as a non-political fashion style of working class youth in England who listened to ska & reagge (later punk & oi!) and drove scooters.

Get the skinheadmug. a movement that started in 1969 in london, when hard mods start to shve their heads, then whn the punk was dead in 1977 the oi! was born, it was the first time skinheads had their own music. skinhead are apolitical in their roots, but some skinheads actually have political inclinations, such as anarchy, communism, socialism...But there are also some people who say they are skinheads and beleive in nazism, they are called boneheads
a man with a ben sherman, a pair of dr martens, a levis jeans, and suspenders, can be recognized as an skinhead

Get the Skinheadmug. Skinhead is a subculture that started with the arrival of Jamaican immigrants to working-class neighborhoods in England in the late 1960s. White working-class kids loved the lively reggae music brought by the Jamaican kids. They often shaved their heads and dressed in their working-class style of bluejeans, doc marten boots, and braces (thin suspenders) They enjoyed going to reggae gigs with the black Jamaican kids and skanked together to the reggae music.
There was and still is no racism involved. Skinheads got their name because of their shaved heads. They were originally also called lemonheads, eggheads, suedeheads, and other names. However, skinhead ultimately stuck. Not to be confused with "boneheads" who dress similar but unlike skinheads, boneheads are racist neonazis that are not welcomed in the skinhead community.
