MANEBI

The lifestyle brand that combines style and sustainability

Manebí is a Milan-based fashion brand founded in 2013 by Vera Drossopulo and Antonello Benati. Initially specializing in espadrilles, the brand quickly expanded its offerings to include a wide range of vacation essentials. Summer is the time of year when we indulge most, and Manebí represents the idea of an endless vacation, full of color and energy. Manebí collections are characterized by a fresh, fun and joyful style. The brand is committed to creating fashionable products without compromising ethics and values, always taking into consideration the origin of materials and the environmental impact of production. Manebí stands out for the quality of its products, which are handmade by skilled artisans in Spain and Italy.

Manebí espadrilles: a style icon revisited

The idea behind the Manebí brand was to reinvent the iconic espadrille, making it more modern and adapted to the needs of those who want to face the summer with style and comfort. Through a collaboration between the Milan design team and Spanish artisans, the brand has created a unique style of unisex espadrilles, available in a wide range of colors and materials. The sole of Manebí espadrilles is made of 100 percent natural jute, with the addition of a layer of natural rubber to ensure durability. The soft and refined upper is made of high-quality leather or suede. The tradition of espadrilles meets innovation and Italian design, resulting in an original and highly successful product.

A concrete commitment to the future

Manebí cares about the impact of its activities on the environment and local communities. The brand has adopted a focused corporate social responsibility strategy through small, concrete steps, such as using sustainable materials and choosing partners who respect the same ethical values. Manebí shoe boxes and shopping bags are made entirely from recycled paper. In addition, Manebí is committed to supporting the local community in Spain, where its espadrilles are handmade. The brand collaborates with local artisans and supports training programs for young apprentices, keeping the Spanish craft tradition alive. In summary, Manebí offers a fashionable and sustainable style, characterized by high-quality handcrafted products and a strong business ethic. Choosing Manebí means supporting environmental sustainability and the Spanish craft tradition while sporting a fashionable and vibrant look.
