1. metalhead:
you all know this: band shirts, denim, black leather, metal, spikes, chains and of course the gloves of metal.. mostly not crackerjack clothes lmao.
2. gothic:
morbid, somber, mostly black stuff, jewelery, really long coats, huge black boots, generally what a vampire would dress like.
3. regular- regular, crackerjack clothes, the stuff most people would wear.
out of the list i choose regular as i don't wear my band shirts that often, and other than those i have no other accessory that links to metal music
i would have included more options but i know only very few people around here dress other than this. if it's not in those 3 categories, i put an "other" option but remember to still answer the question.

Rīga is the capital city, there are unsafe regions and a bunch of bad people like in any other (rather) big city or town. Aizkraukle and Koknese = both in the region I mentioned. I wouldn't want to live there, that's for sure, but I also haven't heard or experienced anything of what you've said. Seems quite impossible, that is, if we're still talking of clothes. Sure, there are people shooting others for eating popcorn too loud and there are crazy wives, sons and husbands who butcher each other for no apparent reason from time to time, but asides from public humiliation and beating up - and that's what a kid who's "different" could experience - I cannot think of anything else (worse) that someone would experience because of the way he/she is dressing.

Well, I have some friends with long hair (I know at least two guys who have hair as long as mine) and they seem to have no problems with the locals. They've met urlas, of course, but apart from that (the experience is always negative no matter what has or hasn't happened)... one of the guys actually enjoys being in public transport as weird as it may sound. He says it's the only place where he can read his book without any interruptions, heh. Maybe you're talking of a different time like... ten years ago? I'd (maybe) get it if you looked like some black-metaller with some nasty accessories that old aunts wouldn't like, but as far as I have seen (and understood), you don't look that extreme or horrid... or whatever. I carry around a miniature Latvian flag (a ribbon) and nothing has happened to me - that should make one more angry than the fact that I'm looking like a metalhead.

I wear a combination of stereotypical metalhead stuff (bullet belts, band t-shirts, the occasional leather bracer, etc) with a little bit of goth and punk added. I usually wear black t-shirts (or band t-shirts, which are usually black) Dark blue jeans, sometimes torn up Black steel-toed boots And a Black Japanese Goth/Punk Rock Jacket (Japanese being it's J-punk style and imported from Japan) with a bunch of pins on it, and hopefully in the future a few choice band patches (haven't gotten around to getting some and putting them on). Thinking about getting a trench coat as well.

While my father encourages me, my mother refuses to take me anywhere because of the I way I like to dress. I'm way into 60s and 70s culture, so I typically rock the Janis Joplin glasses, beads and psychedelic necklaces and shirts, etc.

I dress regular, and wear band T-shirts only in concerts. I never had the urge to dress as a metalhead, and I feel I'm too "old" for it anyway. Maybe if I were a metalhead as a teenager, I would have weared metal clothes then. Most people are surprised when they hear that I'm a metalhead, maybe they still think all of us wear only black all the time

Account deleted Written by Guest on 05.06.2013 at 21:24 lol I mean that those who dress "metal" are mostly teenagers, and in a few years they "grow out" of it. And if you finish school and start working, many companies and certain jobs have a dresscode and don't tolerate metal clothing Actually, I only know one guy among my friends who still dresses like a metalhead. I, myself don't like to dress all black, it doesn't suit me either, I enjoy wearing different colors. But it's cool if you wear black because you really like it, not because of some pressure to be a "metalhead".

Account deleted Written by Bad English on 06.06.2013 at 02:43 ok, when I said metal clothes I meant band t-shirts, long hair for guys, boots, black gothic dresses for girls, ect., so the stereotypical metalhead look Only wearing black doesn't make you a metalhead of course. The dresscode situation is different in my country, if you work in a bank, trading company or any place which deals with money, you have to have a business look, it's quite strict. In some places you can wear anything of course, but if you want to be taken seriously in a business meeting or something, you cannot dress the way you want So when they reach their twenties, most people lose the metalhead look, it's rare to see people over 25 dressing like this (on the streets and shops, not on concerts I mean ). Most people became conformists. Wish it would be like in Sweden, that they would keep their identity longer. And yeah, black clothes are useful to hide dirt
