Bench
Bench is a Manchester streetwear label that grew out of skate and BMX culture in 1989. Known for the BBQ jacket and thumbhole cuffs, it now sells casual clothing and activewear for women and men through bench.co.uk. Since 2020 it has belonged to Apparel Brands Group, and it is also sold through stockists.
About Bench
The range
Expect hoodies, jackets, full tracksuits and tees, including multipacks that make basics easier to stock up on, plus denim. Pieces are designed for comfort as much as looks, so tracksuits work for lounging as well as training. Both the men's and women's ranges carry the brand's urban, street-inspired style. Bench calls itself the first authentic streetwear brand from the UK, and jackets remain a key part of the line-up. Garments are built for comfort and durability, with contemporary cuts and quality fabrics.
