How would you be recognised when out and about? For instance, if i saw a Goth in Tesco id know. However im not sure id know an "outdoor adventure enthusiast" if I saw one. So what visual tells do you have to let the casual observer know which subculture you're a member of?

No comment

I also notice how many "dress up " in their gear to go to the shop

Its indeed a sub culture of mainstream and absolutely divided into many niche sub sub cultures

I absolutely disagree though that to be a sub culture one needs to be overt about it or advertise it

I'm part of both kite surf and climbing sub culture those who partake would recognise another

So far, i think you're the first who understands the concept of a subculture.

I think that just shows you don't understand subculture. Gamers and Nerds are pretty mainstream. The answers you've dismissed as not being subculture are the ones that truly are cultures but hidden away and not known about.

Take runners, we have our clubs, rules, meets, magazines, specialist clothing, forums, debates etc, we even nod to each other like bikers do - all appearing to the outside world as 'just a hobby'

I'm a climber/mountaineer and a runner.

I'd tell. Just like the Goth it would be the choice of clothing. I'd even be able to tell if he was a serious outdoor enthusiast or just someone who likes the fashion and wants to be seen that way. Your ignorance of a culture doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
