I never thought of it a separate sub-culture. Many metalheads (from thrashists to blackers) wear vests/jackets padded with favorite band logos, so it's just a small, not even mandatory part of metal sub-culture (which in turn has many sub-sub-cultures). Recently I started seeing skaters and hipsters wearing something like that too. Or do I miss something?
- YeGoblynQueenne 9y agoJust to be clear: I meant the battle jackets as a hint for the fact that metal is my subculture. I didn't mean that there's a secret society of battle jacket wearers that form a separate group inside the wider Metal subculture. Although, for all I know, there probably is.
- kbart 9y agoAh, now it's clear, I thought maybe I missed something. Metal subculture is probably considered "boring" by mass media/fashion as it's nowhere as exotic as described in this article or others seen less often. Even in my "shithole" country there's no lack of metal gigs and open airs. Stay trve \m/
