For Maneh and Emily.
Their names are the brand.
Before this, I built something else. I made decisions that didn't work. I ran out of money. I had to call it.
There were days when everything just stopped.
And I had to decide: keep going, or walk away.
I kept coming back to two names: Maneh and Emily.
My daughters. The reason I didn't quit.
So I stripped everything back and asked one thing: what do I actually want to leave behind? Something made right, in small numbers, on purpose.
That became ManEmy. Named after them.
Built for the ones who've had to rebuild.
Every piece is heavyweight cotton — cut and sewn in the Veneto, where the same atelier has been working since the 1980s. Limited run. No restock. That's how you make something worth keeping.
If you've ever had to start over — quietly, without a plan, with people you love watching you try — then you know.
Quiet clothes for loud lives.
— Sam Sarg
Founder, ManEmy
Production
Made in the province of Vicenza, in the Veneto region of northern Italy. Cut and sewn from 100% cotton in an atelier specializing in heavyweight jersey and unstructured garments since the 1980s.
