Technically the laces are a real thing especially in the British Punk scene. As well as New York City cops are trained on the lace code so that they know who they're dealing with.

[@easobento2735]

I met lots of punks, who used lace codes and some of them wore red laces. They said that it also meant communism, kinda makes sense to me, but it's a bit complicated.

[@vallisdaemonvm]

Communist punks do wear red laces sometimes. I've also seen black with red paired for antifa/anti-racist action, and anarcho-communist in general.

[@SteveShallPerish]

yeah R.A.S.H. skins wear red as well

[@TheGuyFromHungary7]

In the place i'm from if you have red in the right and black in the left you're an anarchist, if black in the right and red in the left you're a communist and if red in both you're the violent type of neo nazi

[@YeahImGabor]

In hungary it's actually complicated cuz one red lace in right means anarchist one lace in the left means communist! But actually two red means neo-n@zi

[@nyxbellatrix011]

@@easobento2735 I think it depends where you are... I saw different codes used in Australia and Argentina for example

[@nadiagerard5870]

Just want to say that blue also can mean ACAB, which is a more modern code related to blue. While not many people use it still a lot of cops are trained on it, which is something that you need to be aware of when wearing lace code especially with blue

[@yumasairinen8978]

Oh hell yeah. Lace code isn't really a thing anymore but if it pisses cops off them hell yeah.

[@minazejkvic4559]

I'd just add that in modern lace code blue usually just means ACAB and red is commonly used by communists, often in combination with black for anarcho-communism. But this can vary depending on where in the world u are especially for reds

[@Inbaroush]

I grew up in the punk scene in the early 80s and red laces on black boots always meant anarchist .

[@BiDude6205]

That's why i wear them 🚩🏴

[@yumasairinen8978]

Yeah, i mostly wear them cause i like red on black but also cause it means anarchist in some places. It's also just so shit that tiktok is making random kids think that lace code is still a thing cause it really isn't. like i got called out for having red laces by a kid wearing only wearing adidas or nike clothes at an anti nazi protest where i was a volunteer to help guide the protest. The kid wasn't even in the protest, he just walked past me.

Yes, it was often combined with red "A" anachy logos onto the boots. I've had a punk called paddy into our class in the 80's, he was small, but a friendly & nice guy, freak, but aren't we all? :)

[@lillily4655]

2:33 I've also heard red meant you specifically killed somebody motivated by racist hatred. Kinda similar to blue for being a cop killer but for racism/neo-nazism etc. Fairly new to the punk scene but I've generally always got the vibe lace code generally doesn't mean much nowadays, especially if the person wearing docs aren't visibly punk. But if they're obviously in the punk scene and in certain areas it can be an issue. Bottom line depends on the area and if anybody gives af. Most likely nobody will care, but there's always a real possibility somebody will. In certain areas lace code can be either nonexistent, or mean different shit. Just depends on the area and the people there. But I'll def say NOT to wear blue, ESPECIALLY at any sort of anti-police protest or if you're a person of color. I've heard blue typically just means ACAB now, but cop killer was the original meaning. While ACAB is a based thing to rep, cops may give af and by wearing those you're just asking them to suspect/fuck with you. Their boomer asses may think you're a "cop killer" or some shit you never know. Don't wanna risk that, especially at any sort of protest. I'd say just stick to yellow if you wanna rep anti-racism.

[@Nibelungenwarmongers]

well, despite lace cod is lame and outdated, its different in different places. As an example - in post-soviet countires (Russia, Ukraine, Baltic countries) meaning is different: red - for a-fa and commies/anarchists, redskins white - for nazis, white nationalists and boneheads green - for punks ive heard about other meaning, but only heard about ppl getting jumped for white/red laces, mostly because of new generation of zoomer/tiktok skins, while older guys usually dont give a damn.

[@Roki_69]

90-00's russian boneheads wore WHITE laces if they killed someone. YELLOW is ACAB RED is antifas/communist shit (we call them sharps idk about English analogue) BLUE is for someone associated with sport GREEN for punks

[@rogertremayne7847]

As a skin from the 80s. I dont know where you got the code from but the code was white=white pride, red =nazi, blue =sharp skins, yellow=cop hate , green=neutral, purple=gay

[@StripeCog]

Here's the thing though..... I grew up as a Punk in the 1980's, and a Skinhead in the 90's, but I moved a lot to different cities in those years. The 'Lace Code' was real, but the colours varied from town to town.....and from state to state. For the most part you are correct on the colour political definitions (if they are straight laced), but there are vast grey areas, that making a list like your presenting, is complacated. E.g. 1. There was/is an anti-racist crew in my home town that sported white or red laces. Is 'Lace Code' dead? My answer to that is this: Older Punks and Skinheads in X-Gereation [aprox.] (45 to 60 year old's) , who are still active in the 'Scene' have been known to still adhere a 'Lace Code' of thier old/current social or political stance. The tradition of straght lacing Doctor Marten's as symbol of being working class, is rooted in the 1960's starting with the Mods. The straight lacing in your Doc's, meant that you were poor(working class), because it showed that your boots did not fit. The first coloured laces were white. The cops would remove laces from the boots of football hooligans, and Skinheads in the late 60's.....the Skins got smart and would carry a set of old school laces in their back pocket just in case. If you saw a Skinhead with white laces it meant they had the suss! The political stuff came years later. Yes. I wear a boot lace colour that ( in my city), has been designated as an anti-fascist statement. but It's a much deeper tradition for me. Not a fashion. It's my culture. No different than a indigenous aesthetic distinguishing what tribe are from. In my home city, I grew up in a Punk scene, where there were Wte pwr gangs, and they caused serious problems on the streets, and at our shows ...and I was once on the front lines of that , letting the nz's know they were not welcome in our scene. Is Lace Code dead? If you forgot about it, or dont care,..then yes. It was a thing. Do people younger than 'X' use Code? From what I have observed, yes. ...but it far and few between. Gen-X, ' cultural eccentrics' , Punks and Skins, don't use lace codeas much either that i know of .

[@hx7004]

Nazis have gotten much more stealthy the past 15 years so catching a nazi for wearing red or white laces is going to be very unlikely. Essentially if you see someone with white or red laces repping sketchy or downright fascist bands, slogans, etc then it can be easy to draw a conclusion, however at that point the laces will be the least obvious sign. I say wear whatever you want and don’t question someone’s laces since if their laces are genuinelly being used to show that they’re alt-right then they will probably be wearing somethig else that’s much more obvious. the people on Reddit trying to bring it back are mostly babypunks who want to feel different and/or knowledgable as to not come off as a babypunk. The punks who are overly critical about others are either new to punk or not actual punks, once you start going to gigs and meeting people irl in the scene, you’ll notice how fucks are rarely given.

Literally every religious picketer at my liberal arts college who was prolife & reciting bible scriptures... they all had white laces 😮‍💨

Being a Non-binary trans woman who is also indigenous ( mainly Lakota and Wichita with a dash of German lol) also to top it off I am a Skinhead ( nothing special life just kinda took me there lol). I knew from my older gen X skinhead friends about the lace code in there time but I had no idea about purple so it's funny because purple along with black are my favorite colors so I always rock purple laces and braces (British skin term for suspenders) so I liked how that naturally worked out lol Oi! 🖤⚒️💜

Woke is not punk...

[@soulfourger]

You don’t know what staying woke is 😏

[@OatmealGrillBlazer]

I hate how the right co-opted the word woke, to the point that it degrades its original meaning, the word originally meant to be aware of current problems and social injustices, you can't be a punk and be a right-winger

Never ever feel pity or guilt for beating up a Nazi.
