Pretty Green Do What They Do Best With The Feltham Smock
Featuring a relaxed fit for that classic Madchester look, the Pretty Green Feltham Smock is re-introduced for the latest season in an updated cotton & nylon fabric.
If you had to trace back the military smock's very own style connection to the casual scene it probably all started with the cagoule. With a passion for classic cagoules from Lacoste IZOD & Patrick, it was this appreciation that would merge into the whole Madchester thing, as bands like The Stone Roses shopped from surplus army stores in Manchester's then seedy Northern Quarter. A mix of military garms & mind bending music genres lit a fuse for a new found love of over-the-head smock styles that would continue well into the mid 90s and "Cool Britannia". Ditching the backs of the British Airbourne from the 1940s to Burberry clad Britpoppers from '95, the smock has become a symbol of British subculture. If there's one brand that know their way around the classic smock it's got to be Pretty Green. With various versions & new iterations each season, the British heritage brand has now re-introduced their Feltham Smock in an updated cotton & nylon fabric.

Originally launched back in 2009, which was ironically the same year the Gallagher brothers had a massive bust up at the Rock en Seine festival near Paris, Pretty Green takes it name after a song by the Jam of the same name. Steeped in British subculture from the original mods of the 1960s to the revival of retro sportswear in the 1990s, Pretty Green is a British heritage brand that unites all things rock 'n' roll with a passion for classic cuts, military influences and cool looking clothes that make you want to start shaking a pair of maracas with one hand behind your back. Renowned for its military inspired outerwear & paisley prints, Pretty Green has remained a mainstay at 80s Casual Classics over the last 10 years.
