hitter

a term referring to a style of rebellious teen in the 1950s early 1960s also known as a "greaser" that appears, for example in the film the "blackboard jungle." A "hitter" was tough on the outside but could be soft on the inside. The persona is
sometimes associated with having an affinity for doo-wop style music.

Look at those hitters over there in their leather jackets, with their greased up hair and hot rod cars.
