We do not know at this time if there are specific school smock styles for younger and older children. Smock styles have varied over time. At this time we have little information about early school smocks. We do note that currently most pre-school smocks are back uttoning. The smocks worn at primary schools are more varied. Many are front buttoning, but some primary children also wear wear back buttoning smocks. This is especially true or girls, but HBC has also noted boys in primary school currently wearing back buttoning smocks. Again there are regional factors here. School smocks were especially common in Catalonia and older primary school boys common wear them. There are many destinctive features to Catalan school smocks.
