Everyone was just so enamored of the uniform and the archetypal image it seemed to exude that post-adolescent boys would do anything to keep their Doc Martens laced and their heads freshly shaved, and their bomber jackets on while vehemently denying the implication that they might be a racist. It went so far as the SHARP movement (SkinHeads Against Racial Predjudice) which to me was nothing more than a bunch of whiney white kids struggling to justify their own outdated image.
