Description: Small metal studs, either conical or pyramidal, of varying sizes, would be embedded into leather wristbands or jackets, usually in a block pattern imitating heavy metal bands of the period. Universally adopted by all "cliques" to some extent, studs were banned by some school districts as potential weapons. Easily produced by shop students or anybody with access to materials and tools, their popularity would not die out entirely until 1988.
