New Sharp Tee's and Totes

The name 'sharpie' originated from the fashion; it was all about the clothes and looking 'sharp', and 'flash'. The first wave of sharpies from 1964 - 1970 were strongly influenced by the 1964 'rockers' and the style of certain Italian migrants. Demeanor was tough, and hair was short back and sides. By the mid to late 1960s the sharpie subculture had evolved and existed in Melbourne's mainly working class and migrant inner city suburbs where a 'rough as guts' working class ethos existed.
