The Monty & Co story

Hi, I’m Leigh Montague, founder of Monty & Co.

I live in Stroud, Gloucester with my Husband Emmerson, our two sons Grayson and Oak (and Albert a very lazy whippet). We are surrounded by the countryside and valleys of the South Cotswolds. Monty & Co. is our family business which we run with passion from a studio next to our home.

Having grown up in Wiltshire I left to pursue a career as a Fashion designer studying at Winchester School of Art and Brighton University. Internships at DVF in New York and Marks & Spencer London followed where I stayed for a decade as a Menswear designer.

I’ve always been fascinated by clothing and textiles, the past/present, its impact and message within society. As a child I was surrounded by uniform, my father and grandfathers were in the RAF and this has had a huge influence on my aesthetic, my love of history, utility and British heritage. 

Monty & Co – Traditional workwear Designed for Childhood. 

A core collection of classic workwear garments reinterpreted for children.
Authentic functional style designed for everyday childhood.

We believe that children should be free to: PLAY – WORK – CREATE – DISCOVER

Quality clothing is our focus. All our garments are made with hardwearing fabric from 100% natural fibres, allowing a garment to get better and softer with age, washing and wear.

We take great time and care to perfect the fit and construction. Versatility, practica
