    The least punk part of the whole thing is that they had so many different changes of clothes

      I hadn’t thought about that, there were a lot of changes throughout the movie. I will say I feel like within the wardrobe changes there were a lot of pieces that were repeated. At least in the case of Heroin Bob!

      @@Daniel_Verhey I hung out with mostly punks in the era the movie came out.
      Vast majority of the scene was people sleeping on a dirty mattress on the floor and spending all their cash getting wasted, buying gas and going to shows, usually have 1 jacket, 1-2 pair of pants and a selection of shirts.
      The hair would change every 2-4 months.
      Just my personal observations.

    i genuinely always thought the clothing being slightly mismatched was due to the fact that they were thrifting or finding vintage punk clothing from the punk eras before, and then also showing what the current/new/mod looks to explain why they might have been wearing baggier pants and 70s button downs. This also could been have shown their financial and social status, they had to spend their money on warm clothes for practicality due to location.

      It was real and grounded and to be honest it was probably pretty cheap for the budget. But it works and looks good. As for Mods, I'm not sure how many "Mods" there were outside of NYC and So Cal because that was a very English scene and it went back to The Who. You did have a Mod Revival with the movie Quadrophenia and bands like The Purple Hearts but again, because of pre Internet distribution, not sure how widespread they were.🤔

    About the red and blue wristbands he wears - they actually look like they were cut off from a pair of socks. If you look closely at one of the edges of the wristbands, they're torn and frayed - suggesting that he just tore them apart and added them to his wardrobe, adding to the whole "D.I.Y." part of the punk scene. I used to do the same thing pretty often - it's a good, edgy addition to an outfit. :)

    I saw SLC Punk in theaters during high school back in the late 90's. Such a neat memory. I think that there might not have been skinny jeans due to them not working with long johns. Another factor could be that they seemed to not like the fashion punks that they encountered and were a more non-conformist social group.

  • @Puckrocker

  • @gringogreen4719
    @gringogreen4719 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +10

    The movie is pretty accurate. Most Punks had little to no money so they wore what was cheap or free. So KMart and Walmart type of clothes (like the long johns), old clothes from a thrift store (so 1960s and 1970s clothes that have been given away) or Military Surplus (clothes from WW II and the Vietnam War were very cheap (not now) because either parents had them or they were cheap and durable so they lasted). So the movie really nailed the look.
    Mods originally wore 1960s Italian suits back in the UK. So Mod fashion would be nicer used suits and you paid to have them tailored to the person. Looking sharp in a suit isn't an off the rack look, you have to have them tailored to the wearer.
    Something to note that back in the early 1980s there wasn't a huge range of types of Punks. Mainly it fell in-between Punks and Hardcore looks in the US. All of the other Punk subgenres are really more late 1990s and later and even then, the kids who wear any given style (take it from a Street Punk and Psychobilly guy) and since it's clothes, you can change the look from show to show.
    So trying to frame a 1980s plot in a 1990s movie with 2000s/2010s references is a bit of a stretch. Overall this is decent but being Punk means you wear whatever the hell you want.
    Edit: The big thing to keep in mind is that this was pre Internet, you got a look at what Punks were doing elsewhere and you replicated it with what you had locally. So local brands and you bought what you could find. Even in the early 2000s buying online wasn't the same as today so you bought merch from shows or music stores if you could find them. Otherwise you pretty much cobbled your look from what you could find. I did this back in the 1990s and 2000s when I was going to shows all the time.

    The Steve-o in HS scene with the mohawk is 100% accurate as far as the jacket. Those aren't local bands those are all common punk bands that would have been on a jacket in the 80's, Sub humans, GBH, Discharge, even a DRI patch. Who ever made this jacket was definitely a punk at some point or the wardrobe person got it spot on!! Also i would like to note how as Steve-o got older his look got more tonned down, a very minor but highly realistic detail. Most punks and metal heads usually are most rebellious in HS and by mid 20's they tone the look down a bit.

    some of the fashion was spot on for the 80's but the feel was more 90's style than 80's i would say and i lived through both eras combat boots were a thing in the 80's dr. martens not so much till the 90's they were still hard to find . the ill fitting plaid jackets would have been a thing in either era . leather jackets were always a thing although not all punks wore them hardcore guys have always prefered hoodies more so . thrifting has always been a huge part either era . . the mods fasion was pretty spot on although i didnt know many mods in my era till the 90's ska movement . whether the fashion is right or wrong doesnt really matter its a great movie and i liked it when i first saw it

    I remember a reviewer felt that the clothes were too contemporary for a movie set in the 80's. As he put it, "In 1985, people dressed like it was 1985, not like it was 1996". Also, I have too cousins, both sisters, who are married to guys why were punks/HC in the 80's. You were more likely to see engineer or combat boots than Doc Martins in that day. Hair was more likely to be done in crew-cuts, as opposed to spikes or mohawks.

    I've spent most of my life in Utah, and I would say that if anything, Salt Lake follows its own rules for fashion, and it doesn't always reflect the rest of the country. I moved to the west coast in the late '70s, during the first punk wave, and some of the styles in Portland and San Francisco didn't make it to Utah for a few years.

      Tight pants were really more of an Emo thing and the joke/reality is that the guys stole their little sisters pants which is partially correct. Most of the people I knew in Punk didn't really wear tight clothes, mainly it was Punk on top of regular jeans or work clothing. Look at DKM or Social D from the 1990s and early 2000s and that's what I mean.

That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I'm a lawyer defending a major record company, and I'm talkin' about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you're in that jury room deliberatin' and conjugatin' the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No!

    The SLC Punk look might also be considered what is known as "freak punk" and/or "disco punk"... The list goes on and on. There's also Cowboy Punk and Inline Punk.
    Do NOT even frick with the Inline Punk boys. There's fun and then there's rights of passage. And to gang in with me you literally have to basically perform surgery all the way all over your body and it's INTENSE. Some people simply will not last. As in.... Yes. Death is 100% entirely possible just to even skATE the way I do.
    In other words you literally have to eat a skateboard wheel. And it ain't pretty. And it is totally deadly. And it is not fun. And it is quite disgusting.
    And it's 100% relatable to our sport's infamous and digusting history of abuse we've endured. So there are some things only one man can do... And I'm on my way to the olypics so what does that tell you?
    And if you think for one freaking second that I will interrupt a French skateboarders session you're absolutely insane.
