Teddy guys - hipsters and punks in one bottle

Categories: History | Society |

In the UK in the middle of the last century, or to be more precise, in the 50-60s, an interesting subculture was formed, whose representatives were called Teddy-Guys. They dressed splendidly and listened to jazz and skiffle, although they later became the church of Elvis Presley and Bill Haley. Despite their elegant appearance, they often staged large showdowns on the streets. So they were an explosive mixture of hipsters and punks. By the way, the female representatives of the Teddy guys were called Judy.
