Beyond the odd heavy metaller, the rest of us have moved well beyond that particular fashion dead end. But just take a butchers at these fine fellows:


These are Azeri special forces: uniforms, crevats and camo facepaint - all colour-coordinated and accessorized nicely with the obligatory black leather fingerless gloves. How cool is that? I wonder if they wear their knee pads round their ankles as well?
