Liam Gallagher
Pretty Green
Liam worked closely with the Clarks Originals design team in Somerset to develop a Pretty Green version of the classic Desert Boot. He had a clear vision of what he wanted; though still carrying the signature Originals design, the boot has a wider and more rounded toe and lower heel, creating a slimmer profile than the original.
Clarks Originals have looked to long standing family tanners, the Steads Tannery of Leeds and sourced the premium Janus Butt suede. This stands out for its quality, butter soft tactility and a beautifully textured finish.
The Pretty Green Desert Boot comes in three standard colours: black, brown and champagne suede. There will also be a limited edition green suede, sold exclusively by Pretty Green.
This is the only shoe Pretty Green will be releasing for AW10 … need we say more.

Liam Gallagher
Now that Oasis have officially split, with seemingly little hope of reconciliation in the near future, frontman Liam Gallagher has concentrated his efforts on his new clothing line, Pretty Green.
Here, in a rare interview, Chris Sullivan talks to him about style, pointed shoes and his beginnings, and does his best to cajole a comment or two about the Oasis break-up.
The quality of your label is really exceptional. Usually you only see that degree of craftsmanship and cloth in Jermyn Street.
We just went for it, man. I wanted it to be the best 'cos there’s no point in fucking about is there? Yeah, man, you gotta start as you mean to go on.
How important was it that you oversaw everything?
Yes, if it don’t look good on me, then I’m not having it. I’ve a bit of time on my hands now, so I thought why not? Let’s get stuck into it. I’m not a fashion man. I’ve never done fashion before, but I know what looks good and what I like and that is as far as it goes.
How would you describe the clothes?
It’s timeless. Classic clobber. Parkas, macs, boating blazers, quality polo shirts, desert boots… Nothing too wild. It’s quality.
What was the first item of clothing you bought with your own money?
I used to be into Patrick and Lacoste – all the casual football gear, you know? Dunlop Green Flash was always top of the agenda – Levi’s, tracksuit top… You know the stuff.
Is there anything you’ve worn that you look back on and go, 'no!'?
People are having a pop at these [he holds his foot up to reveal a pair of faux leopardskin Yves St Laurent soft driving loafers], but I think they are the nuts, man. These are my pride and fucking joy.
What are your thoughts on pointed shoes?
I fucking hate pointed shoes. Not for me, man. They’re for girls and that. I don’t like these skintight jeans either. I don’t mind a bit of slim, but I’m not into baggy either. I can’t tell whether they are a boy or a girl. Are you a fucking chick or a bloke? In my opinion, a girl has to look like a girl and a lad like a lad.
What about trainers?
I had a pal who used to send me all this Adidas stuff, but as soon as you hit 30 you have to drop all that stripes and stuff.
What's the secret of your success?
Being real, man. The gigs were completely serious, but the rest of it we were having a laugh. Getting everyone at it. We weren’t built on a career plan, we just fucking did it and it happened.
Why would you stop?
That’s the beauty of Oasis – we could implode and then we couldn’t, and we did, and there you fucking go. But it took the members of Oasis to knock it on the head and not the fucking people who were knocking us down and said we wouldn’t last. No one got to us except for us. We got to ourselves and I am very proud of that.
Eighteen years is a long time.
Especially when a lot of people are on your case, saying you’re shit and all that. We were the only ones that brought Oasis down and not all those *****.
Do you share my dislike of U2?
I have never seen a U2 fan, not ever. I have never seen anyone with a U2 shirt or been around someone’s house that has a fucking U2 record. I mean, where do their fans fucking come from? Where are they? I reckon they buy them. With all the money they’ve made, they just bought a load of people and every time they do a gig they get a big old shovel and pile them into their gigs to make them look good.
Michael Jackson – genius or not?
A genius without a doubt. Not my kind of music, but the missus loves it. I preferred him when he was in the Jackson Five, but then he turned into a bit of a nut job. But it was always on the cards wasn’t it? He lived in America for a start and anyone who has their own fairground in the back garden has to go fucking nuts. I have a couple of trees and a garden fucking shed, so it keeps me well on the ground. At least I ain’t got a fucking Ferris wheel. Bound to drive you mad.
What was it like with your first album [Definitely Maybe] going stratospheric in a matter of weeks?
It was fucking great, man. I didn’t freak me out at all. I’d been digging holes in Manchester for the last four fucking years, so I was ready for it, man. I was like, "Here’s that fucking spade, you can have it!"
Last word about your label?
If you like it and you can afford it, get it on, and if you can’t, save up.

Liam Gallagher
Oasis
Liam Gallagher claims his new band will be more ''musical'' and ''sophisticated'' than Oasis because they will concentrate on the songs and nothing else.
The outspoken singer - whose older brother Noel quit Oasis last August after tensions and feuding between the pair became intolerable - believes the group he has formed without his sibling will be more successful because they will concentrate on the songs and nothing else.
He said: "We are going to be more musical than Oasis. It's not going to be so f***ing full-on, heavy chords, you know? More sophisticated. Not up its own a**e. but more musical."
Liam, 37, is currently working on new material with his ex-Oasis bandmates Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock, while 42-year-old Noel - who wrote the majority of Oasis' biggest hits, including 'Wonderwall' and 'Some Might Say' - is preparing to launch a solo career.
Liam has made no secret of his dislike of Noel, 42, and recently described him as the most "overrated" man of all time.
Discussing who he thought was the most overrated man in history, Liam told Esquire magazine: "Has to be Noel Gallagher."

Just to let you know that Noel Gallagher was on talkSPORT yesterday with Andy Goldstein and ex-Arsenal player, Ray Parlour.
Mani had been on earlier and confirmed that he will be playing with Noel at the TCT gigs later this month.
The vast majority of Noel's chat was about football, but he also spoke about being drunk onstage, saying he had only done it about half a dozen times, with one in particular standing out as they had all been up for a couple of days and he wasn't sure he would get through the gig, that he will be rehearsing next week for the TCT gigs and that he had just been watching Come Dine With Me!
As soon the interview is on the talkSport website, I will put a link here.

As promised, we have another exclusive here on StopCryingYourHeartOut.com!
Friend of the site Liam Gallagher granted us a few precious minutes to discuss the new Pretty Green line coming out this month.
Liam was in good form, though he kept his cards close to his chest on the subject of his new band, he let us in on his plans for Pretty Green, what happened at the Brits and who's on his transfer wish list for Man City this summer.
Myself: One thing that I'm amazed by is that everything with Pretty Green has happened so fast. In less then a year from the first ideas, you are about to release another collection. Have you been surprised how quickly things have moved?
Liam: No, we don’t fuck about.
Myself: The range has been well received, has that surprised you?
Liam: It does surprise me considering I’ve got something to do with it, there are a lot of people who try to kill things before they even become alive.
Myself: What are the stand out items from the forthcoming range?
Liam: The camouflage parka, stands out to me personally and the button down shirts.
Myself: What's the feedback been like from fans who have ordered items from the range?
Liam: They all comment on the quality and the fit of the clothes.
Myself: Are there any specific items from the range that customers are asking for more of?
Liam: A lot of girls are asking if we will be doing a range for them, and the answer to that is YES once we have got rid of all the lads stuff.
Myself: Do you still have a big involvement with the designing of the clothes and all the materials used?
Liam: Of course 100%.
Myself: You spoke to me in Cardiff last year about bringing out accessories like sunglasses, belts etc are these still being planned?
Liam: Yes we will be adding to the range, ie accessories.
Myself: Are there any plans to bring out accessories on the female range of Pretty Green? Personally I would definitely buy a Pretty Green Handbag?
Liam: Are you taking the piss? Handbags!!! course we are!
(I somehow think Liam was joking on this one)
Myself: You are releasing the Desert Boots later this year in a joint venture with Clarks, what did they think to the suttle changes you made to such a classic boot?
Liam: They were over the moon.
Myself: Are there any other joint ventures in the pipeline you can tell us about?
Liam: Theres lots but I cant tell you about them at the moment.
Myself: Are there still plans for a flagship Pretty Green store?
Liam: At the moment, we are looking in Manchester, London, Glasgow and Tokyo.
Myself: It's been rumoured that you plan to visit more countries to promote the upcoming range. Are these still going ahead? and can you tell us any of the countries you plan to visit?
Liam: We have just got back from Japan, and will be heading to New York this month and Europe after that.
Myself: How do you decide which designs to offer to stores? And the ones to sell exclusively on the Pretty Green website?
Liam: We sit down and talk about it, but always want to keep certain pieces back for the people who are members of Pretty Green like the green desert boot. That’s only available online.
Myself: You gave Paul Weller one of the limited edition Black Parka jackets, Has he given you any feedback on it?
Liam: He loved it, we also gave him a white one but were still waiting for the cheque in the post.
Myself: How has your website grown? Are you seeing more people purchasing online now than before?
Liam: Yeah, its growing all the time.
Myself: When will the new collection be shown to fans around the world?
Liam: March 22nd on our site.
Myself: What were the best selling items from the launch collection?
Liam: We sold out of everything.
Myself: Why didn’t you mention Noel in your speech at the Brits?
Liam: I'm sick of it all being about me and Noel, the last couple of months has pretty much been all about me and him so I thought it was only right to mention the other lads who played on the album and the best fans in the world.
Myself: What was the reason behind you throwing the Oasis award into the crowd at the Brits?
Liam: I thought it was a nice Gesture to give this to the fans, obviously it was misinterpreted as per usual.
How are the plans for the new band coming along, do you still plan to put out a album and tour this year?
Liam: Its all going really good.
Have you decided on a name for the band yet?
Liam: Not yet.
Do you have any song titles that you can tell us about?
Liam: No.
Will you play any Oasis songs when you eventually tour? Or will it all be new material?
Liam: Too fucking right! Don’t Look Back In Anger in acapella.
Roger Daltrey said in an interview that he had contacted you for the TCT but you were otherwise engaged, can we expect to see you and your new band at the Teenage Cancer Trust next year?
Liam: Without a doubt Teenage Cancer Trust is a charity close to my heart, Oasis played it a couple times and I'd like to think we can carry this on with the new band.
Do you think Manchester City can now grab a Champions League place, after the convincing win against Chelsea?
Liam: Without a doubt!
What two players would you like to see sign for City in the summer?
Liam: There’s a young lad called Harry Grant who plays for Swindon and Mario Belatelli who plays for Inter Milan.
Do you think England can win the World Cup?
Liam: Yeah!
You have worked with The Prodigy and Death in Vegas would you ever work with the Gorrilaz?
Liam: I've been told many times never to work with animals, far too dangerous.
Jay-Z said in a interview earlier this year that he would love to work with you? would you ever do something like that?
Liam: If the tunes right and its not too far out of my comfort zone, then yeah, fucking right!
Thanks to Liam for taking the time to answer the questions, the new collection from Pretty Green will go on sale on www.prettygreen.com from March 22nd.

Myself: You are releasing the Desert Boots later this year in a joint venture with Clarks, what did they think to the suttle changes you made to such a classic boot?
Liam: They were over the moon.
Myself: Are there any other joint ventures in the pipeline you can tell us about?
Liam: Theres lots but I cant tell you about them at the moment.
Myself: Are there still plans for a flagship Pretty Green store?
Liam: At the moment, we are looking in Manchester, London, Glasgow and Tokyo.
Myself: It's been rumoured that you plan to visit more countries to promote the upcoming range. Are these still going ahead? and can you tell us any of the countries you plan to visit?
Liam: We have just got back from Japan, and will be heading to New York this month and Europe after that.
Myself: How do you decide which designs to offer to stores? And the ones to sell exclusively on the Pretty Green website?
Liam: We sit down and talk about it, but always want to keep certain pieces back for the people who are members of Pretty Green like the green desert boot. That’s only available online.
Myself: You gave Paul Weller one of the limited edition Black Parka jackets, Has he given you any feedback on it?
Liam: He loved it, we also gave him a white one but were still waiting for the cheque in the post.
Myself: How has your website grown? Are you seeing more people purchasing online now than before?
Liam: Yeah, its growing all the time.
Myself: When will the new collection be shown to fans around the world?
Liam: March 22nd on our site.
Myself: What were the best selling items from the launch collection?
Liam: We sold out of everything.
Myself: Why didn’t you mention Noel in your speech at the Brits?
Liam: I'm sick of it all being about me and Noel, the last couple of months has pretty much been all about me and him so I thought it was only right to mention the other lads who played on the album and the best fans in the world.
Myself: What was the reason behind you throwing the Oasis award into the crowd at the Brits?
Liam: I thought it was a nice Gesture to give this to the fans, obviously it was misinterpreted as per usual.
How are the plans for the new band coming along, do you still plan to put out a album and tour this year?
Liam: Its all going really good.
Have you decided on a name for the band yet?
Liam: Not yet.
Do you have any song titles that you can tell us about?
Liam: No.
Will you play any Oasis songs when you eventually tour? Or will it all be new material?
Liam: Too fucking right! Don’t Look Back In Anger in acapella.
Roger Daltrey said in an interview that he had contacted you for the TCT but you were otherwise engaged, can we expect to see you and your new band at the Teenage Cancer Trust next year?
Liam: Without a doubt Teenage Cancer Trust is a charity close to my heart, Oasis played it a couple times and I'd like to think we can carry this on with the new band.
Do you think Manchester City can now grab a Champions League place, after the convincing win against Chelsea?
Liam: Without a doubt!
What two players would you like to see sign for City in the summer?
Liam: There’s a young lad called Harry Grant who plays for Swindon and Mario Belatelli who plays for Inter Milan.
Do you think England can win the World Cup?
Liam: Yeah!
You have worked with The Prodigy and Death in Vegas would you ever work with the Gorrilaz?
Liam: I've been told many times never to work with animals, far too dangerous.
Jay-Z said in a interview earlier this year that he would love to work with you? would you ever do something like that?
Liam: If the tunes right and its not too far out of my comfort zone, then yeah, fucking right!
Thanks to Liam for taking the time to answer the questions, the new collection from Pretty Green will go on sale on www.prettygreen.com from March 22nd.
