The most baller, comfortable socks to exist. Typically worn by adolescents. Elites are said to be way overpriced, at around $14 a pair here in the United States. However, they're very soft and stylish. Elites feature a solid color fabric, an accent color that is used for the stripe going down the back, the swoosh, and other parts of the sock. Elite 2.0s, the newer model, feature 3 different colors - a stripe and two other solid colors. Elite Vapors, the football Elites, are a solid color with a triangular-like stripe going down the back. Two-Layer Elites are simply regular Elites with a second layer underneath. No matter which model you buy, all are labeled with the Swoosh on one side of the sock (right sock means the logo is on the right, left sock means the logo is on the left). Custom Elites have been created and continue to be popular, although their price is usually about 3x the normal ($45). There have also been Elites made that use the Breast Cancer Awareness logo as well as the LeBron logo. Overall, I think that Elites are definitely amazing.

A "lowbrow" version of elitism opposite of highbrow elitism, similar to populism.
Reverse elitism is when a person thinks they're better than others who have more wealth, social status, looks than them.
Examples include:
Low income or working class people who think they're more "tough", "manly", "down to earth", "generous", etc than rich yuppies or college educated hipsters because they do hard manual labor instead of sitting at a desk, or work 80 hours a week for low wages and are therefore "holier than thou" hard workers.
The fat acceptance movement has also lead some people to reverse shame "skinny people" calling them anorexic, or believing they look "fake".
In politics you'll see reverse elitism in both the Democratic and Republican party - with the Republican working class believing themselves more genuine or down to earth than liberal Ivy League snobs, and the Democratic working class believing themselves the "real workers" as opposed to those lazy country club corporate fat cats.

Get the IQ Elite Skin mug.More formally, a 'Heavy Metal Elitists', are members of the Heavy Metal community/fan-base, usually aficionado, whose long term experiences with Metal music has often led them to develop a sense of passion that is frequently interpreted as stubbornness or arrogance.
Often times their knowledge of heavy metal not just limited to knowing lots of bands. Most are familiar with the musical characteristics (scales, theories, etc.), attitudes, history, people, and social issues relating to heavy metal.
Usually Elitists shun people new to metal because the noobs are unable to cite knowledge from those aforementioned topics to support their statements about a band.
One misconception is that they do not listen to any other music besides Heavy Metal and some will even restrict themselves to only particular metal sub-genres. While it is common practice to adhere to only a few sub-genres within their taste of Heavy Metal, however outside of Metal, many do have diverse tastes in music. Although they may detest mainstream music like pop or hip-hop, most are often fond of other music such as jazz, blues, classical, and punk, since these types of music are highly influential to Heavy Metal.
Another misconception is that they think Heavy Metal is the most superior music on earth. Most Elitists will admit that the skills and novelty in the some compositions of jazz and classical marvel that of Metal.

Do not confuse a Metal Elitist with:
1) an asshole who happens to like metal, or 2) a metalhead who happens to be an asshole. Some Elitist, by nature, will be an asshole (in turn) if you make unsupported statements about certain bands.
