Why “The Toots”?

The Toots is named in tribute to Frederick “Toots” Hibbert, legendary frontman of Toots and the Maytals and one of the most important figures in the history of Jamaican music.

From the early days of ska through rocksteady and reggae, Toots’ unmistakable soulful voice helped take Jamaican music to audiences around the world. The Maytals’ 1968 track Do the Reggay is widely credited as the first record to put the word “reggae” on record – making Toots forever part of the music’s history.

It’s a fitting name for a Rude Rebel shirt: a small tribute to one of the true originals.

Authentic Subculture Style

Rude Rebel Clothing is a small, independent, family-run UK clothing brand based in the North-East of England. We’re not looking at subculture from the outside – we’ve been part of the ska scene for decades, from fanzines and websites to gigs, festivals and everything in between.

Our shirts are designed for people who share that culture. Skinheads, mods, rude boys, ska fans and anyone who appreciates sharp British subculture clothing with a bit of history behind it.

Produced in limited runs, once a particular design or colour is gone, we can’t guarantee it’ll return.
