Getting the bosozoku style
In anime and manga, typical bosozoku member often wear a uniform that mixes 1950s soldier, 1950s rocker and a sense of dystopian, apocalyptic futurism:
- A tokko-fuku, a type of military issued overcoat with kanji slogans. Tokko-Fuku in Japanese means "Special Attack Uniform", which is the uniform of the Kamikaze pilots, which in Japanese were called the "Special Attack Battalion". The overcoats are often decorated with army slogans, patriotic rising sun patches, ancient Chinese characters, or even manji. The overcoat is usually worn open with no shirt underneath. Which is all very well for boys.
- Bandaged torsos - Be warned, a bandaged torso is easier to achieve for skinny boys than busty girls. The bandaged torsos aren't so much a modern zombie lo
ok - they're actually tasuki, which is a sash tied in X around the torso, a look inspired by Japanese World War II fighter pilots. - Baggy trousers tucked inside tall boots
- Leather jackets and even full leather suits can replace the overcoat. These will often be embroidered with club/gang logos.
- Wrap-around sunglasses are a bit of a must.
- Long hachimaki headbands are often worn over high greased rockabilly quiffs, which are probably a nod to the greaser/rocker look loved by yakuza thugs (so a girl could do the girl's rockabilly equivalent with a high quiff and greased ponytail).
- Female bosozoku hair is long and often dyed
- Bosozoku girls wear high-heeled boots - the shinier and the more buckles the better!
