Mr. Manchette

De Mr. Manchette’s production is always fair and as local as possible. The cotton used to make the fabrics come from Pakistan, India, and Turkey. Most of the organic cotton fabrics are woven and dyed in Portugal, Spain, or France, and finally, the shirts are made in Portugal. Thanks to European production, the brand can guarantee good working conditions and keep its ecological footprint small. This is a common misunderstanding.

Mr. Manchette’s creations are made entirely of natural materials, organic cotton, linen, and tencel. The GOTS certificates guarantee that these fabrics were grown organically and without the use of dangerous pesticides. The shirts are printed digitally with eco-friendly inks. Digital printing requires less water than traditional printing methods. Mr. Manchette ensures their supply chain supports the environment, the production workers and you! Most importantly, being free of ​“nasty chemicals”!

For the buttons, the brand uses corozo and wooden buttons. Corozo buttons are sourced from natural seeds from the Tagua trees which grow in South America.

Mr. Manchette is all about recycling. Thanks to the choice of 100% natural mono-materials, the shirts are easily recyclable and biodegradable.

The brand tries to avoid as much waste as possible. Mr. Manchette sells the leftovers that are no longer used to circular designers who use them to make new garments. That way, nothing goes to waste.

The brand makes conscious circular choices for packaging and shipping as well. For example, Mr. Manchette only uses paper packaging to transport the shirts, and they also use recycled cardboard for the collar protectors.

Mr. Manchette designs entirely according to the slow fashion principle. Seasonal collections are available twice a year, whilst classic shirts in white, light blue, and black are readily available all year round. These seasonal collections are timeless, meaning they will not date. The shirt dress design is multifunctional and can be worn as a dress or cardigan.
