The Full-Time Punks

Feature by RJ Thomson | 06 Jan 2008

Democracy has had its time. At least, it might still have something to offer to, say, Pakistan (here's hoping), but in a developed contemporary society we should really be looking for a political model that's a bit more, you know, involved than just putting a cross in box every couple of years. That's not freedom. Freedom comes from choosing how you earn your money, and where you spend it. The Skinny is proud to present this shoot, consisting entirely of locally crafted clothes produced to high ethical and eco-friendly standards. Traditional styles: the future of punk.
