===Street punk and Oi!=== In general, contemporary [[street punk]]s wear leather, denim, metal spikes or studs, chains and military-style boots. They often wear elements of early punk fashion, such as [[kutte]]n vests, bondage trousers (often plaid) and torn clothing. [[DIY ethic|DIY]]-created and modified clothing, such as ripped or stitched-together trousers or shirts, or trousers that are tightly tapered, are common. Jackets and vests often have patches or are painted with logos that express musical tastes or political views. Bullet belts and belts with metal studs are popular. Hair is often spiked and/or dyed in bright, unnatural colors and arranged into a [[mohawk hairstyle|mohawk]] or [[liberty spikes]], but it is sometimes cut very short or shaved. [[Oi!]] [[skinhead]]s, sometimes known as skunks or punk-skinheads, fuse [[Trojan skinhead|traditional skinhead]] style with street punk fashions. The look is characterised by [[Dr. Martens]] boots (or similar boots made by a different brand), [[suspenders|braces]], and tight rolled-up jeans, sometimes splattered with bleach. Other common items are T-shirts (featuring band names, political beliefs or other text and images relevant to skinhead culture) and denim jackets or [[flight jacket]]s. These jackets are sometimes decorated with buttons or patches, and in the case of the denim jackets, sometimes splattered with bleach. Hair is typically shaved shorter than with [[Trojan skinhead|traditional skinheads]]. Other items from traditional skinhead fashion (e.g. [[Fred Perry]] and [[Ben Sherman]] shirts) and, to a lesser extent, punk fashion items (e.g. short mohawk hairstyles, metal studs on jackets) are also sometimes worn.<ref>{{Cite news |last=Petridis |first=Alexis |date=18 March 2010 |title=Misunderstood or hateful?
