Published photos of London skinheads taken in the 1980s
By Pictolic https://pictolic.com/article/published-photos-of-london-skinheads-taken-in-the-1980s.htmlLondon skinheads have been called "the most intimidating subculture in the UK", and the photos presented convey this feeling from them. The young people in the pictures greet each other with Nazi gestures, one of them shows the photographer bare buttocks, and the other pretends to kick a friend in the head.
These pictures of the 1980s were published recently. Amateur photographer Kim Rennie put them in his book "Skinheads of London" — so he decided to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the iconic London punk club 100 Club.

Many skins took photos at concerts or on holidays in Southend, but filmed on inexpensive Instamatics cameras. At the same time, whenever you pointed the lens at the skinhead, he behaved like a real showman."

Skinheads pose against the background of a London Underground map in their favorite place — next to the 100 Club.
The appearance of skinheads in Southend, with their costumes and Nazi greetings, shocked and frightened the locals.
A typical skinhead appearance: a shaved head, a T-shirt with a swastika or a British flag and 12-hole Dr. Martens shoes.
