Sharpies (Australian subculture)
Sharpies, or Sharps, were members of suburban youth gangs in Australia, most significantly from the 1960s and 1970s. They were particularly prominent in Melbourne, but were also found in Sydney and Perth to lesser extents. Sharpies were known for being violent, although a strict moral code was also evident. The name comes from their focus on looking and dressing "sharp".〔
==Sharpie culture==
Sharpies would often congregate in large numbers, regularly attending live bands at town hall and high school dances〔 and early discos; due to their sheer numbers, they were often perceived as being untouchable by the police. Sharpies were sometimes associated with excessive violence,〔 regularly taking part in fights.
Common clothing items included Lee or Levi jeans, cardigans, jumpers, and T-shirts—often individually designed by group members〔—with which they would try to outdo other sharpies by creating the best patterns, colours, and detail.
Mods were an enemy of sharpies, and their gang brawls were reported in the newspapers during 1966.〔https://news.google.com.au/newspapers?id=NwIRAAAAIBAJ&sjid=YZMDAAAAIBAJ&pg=4362%2C4918&dq=mods+sharpies&hl=en〕 In a 2002 interview, a former sharpie stated that despite the sharpie culture being quite violent — especially as they crossed other gangs' territories on the public transport network — the altercations were restricted to inter-gang rivalries.〔
