Black jeans were a no-no for Mods and Skinheads in the '60s. More of a Beatnik or Rocker thing.
Also with trim fit shirts we have to bear in mind that the original Mods & Skins were teenagers and also guys were generally skinnier then. Nowadays guys of an, ahem, more generously proportioned build may wear trim fit shirts that were designed for a thinner chap!
EDIT: not that I'm implying anything!!
About the black jeans: Is that really why skinheads didn't wear them? I mean I would assume it wouldn't matter if beatniks or rockers wore them. I mean didn't every also wear Levi's blue denim jeans anyway?
