The clothes styles of Leech Mob were very
different. It was a mix of hardcore,
punk, skater, gangster, and industrial gear.
Kids would wear champion sweatshirts, ripped at the collar, with black
jeans and sneakers; or zippered sweatshirts with cargo pants and doc martin
boots. For a minute, long-sleeve
t-shirt hoodies were all over the place with baggy pants, meaning size 48
waistlines we had to cop from second hand joints cause the jeans they sold at
department stores were just too tight.
For the skaters, baggy denim jeans and flannel shirts helped keep their
skin intact when they flew off skateboards.
Underground skateboard companies still sold t-shirts with unique logos
and art designs that the mainstream skateboard companies could never live up
to. Hardcore bands developed their own
trademark long sleeve t-shirts with statements printed down the sleeves and I
remember the style was to wear a short sleeve hardcore shirt over a long
sleeved one.
Everybody’s ears and noses were a wreck of piercings
and the baseball hats were always rolled down tight so our eyes were shaded.
Usually kids shaved their heads around the sides and back but left the tops
long, which they bleached blonde or dyed black while other kids got hair dye for the red, purple and green. Some of
the girls would show up dressed like hippie chicks with long dresses
and beads.
