In Conversation with Johnny Marr
New Video Editorial
From shaping the sound of a generation with The Smiths to carving out a singular and celebrated solo career, Johnny Marr’s influence stretches far beyond music.
For our latest Editorial, we sat down properly with Johnny — a longtime friend of Rivet & Hide — to talk about the evolution of Manchester’s subcultures, our mutual love of well-made things, and how he came to discover Rivet & Hide in our first few weeks of opening in Manchester.
Hit the link below to watch the full video — a conversation that spans decades of music, style, and culture, as told by someone who’s lived and breathed it all.

@Danny-RnH What a fabulous editorial! Johnny articulates so well our passions for well made clothing. I struggle sometimes to explain my own obsession with my Iron Heart denim, but Johnny’s statements on tribal traits, community and inclusion and most importantly the connection between the clothes we love and the music we love are bang on.
As he says, it’s definitely not a vanity thing; but the point made about the relevance of gangs is super interesting and something I can totally relate to! -
@Giles @tody @IH-GARY Thanks you for the comments and glad this has been of interest. It was a real pleasure making this film with Johnny. He suggested the idea, to support us after opening the new London store. It was very generous of him. Great guy.

@Danny-RnH I really liked his cultural, even subcultural approach. I guess that's what you'll get if you ask a musician. It was a lovely change from all the polished heritage guy know-it-all talk you get on youtube in other videos...

Introducing Fortela
Founded in 2015 by Alessandro Squarzi, Fortela specialises in timeless, archive-inspired styles brought to life by the combined mastery of Italian and Japanese production.
Fortela’s collections are just as likely to channel the rugged spirit of the Wild West as they are to capture the quiet elegance of mid-century tailoring. Whether it’s a cashmere crewneck, a shawl-collar Navajo knit, or a pair of chinos, each Fortela presents a wardrobe built on timeless icons, designed to be lived in, enjoyed, and even passed down.
Walter Cardigan
Wool, Navajo Jacquard KnitThe Walter is a showstopping shawl-collar cardigan, distinguished by its bold Navajo-inspired motif. Jacquard-knit to a substantial weight by skilled Peruvian artisans, it’s finished with corozo nut buttons and patch pockets. Versatile and timeless, it pairs effortlessly with jeans, chinos, or even layered over a denim jacket. A statement piece that goes with pretty much anything.
The Park Cardigan
The Park cardigan delivers sharp preppy style in a luxuriously soft, full-wool knit. Its tailored fit strikes the perfect balance of structure and drape, offering plenty of dress-up, dress-down versatility. Finished with classic Ivy details: V-neck, six-button placket, and ribbed cuffs and hem.
Hector Trousers
Vanilla, MoleskinThe Hector is Fortela’s answer to the workwear trouser, elevated with a smart-casual edge. Cut with a relaxed, generous leg from substantial garment-dyed cotton moleskin, it carries a lived-in look and a soft, broken-in hand. A gentle taper from the knee down sharpens the silhouette for a more refined finish.
King Pocket Shirt
Cotton, Blue & White StripedFortela’s King is a stripped-back button-down inspired by classic American shirting. Crafted in Italy from a soft, structured striped fabric, it’s finished with a single chest pocket, a rear box pleat, and plenty of Italian sprezzatura.
Maine Chinos
Herringbone Twill, Navy & BeigeThe Maine Chino is a tip of the hat to New England’s rich maritime heritage. Cut wide and straight through the leg, it’s crafted from a characterful cotton herringbone twill. The fabric has a sturdy hand and a pronounced weave that will develop even more character with time and wear. Available in Navy and Beige.
Cooper Jumper
Cashmere, NavyThe Cooper channels vintage militaria in a cashmere knit that’s sharply tailored and marked by its hammer-sleeve design. Light but warm, and naturally thermo-regulating, it’s a true four-season piece.
Newyork Pleated Trousers
Cotton/Wool Blend, NavyMid-century tailoring meets meticulous Italian craftsmanship in Fortela’s Newyork Trousers. A relaxed, roomy, slightly tapered cut with a double-pleated front, tailored from a cotton–wool blend. Cozy yet airy, they’re the perfect companion for the cooler months ahead.
