About us

        Manitober is a sustainable clothing brand from Hamburg. All our products are gender-neutral and made from ecologically and socially acceptable materials under fair conditions in Europe. However, we live sustainability not only in the aspect of ethical production, but also in an extension of the product life cycle. That's why we offer a lifetime return policy on all our items: after their use, they can be returned or sent back to us. We check the condition of the garments and then offer the customer a coupon, depending on the condition of the clothes. We repair and clean the returned pieces and then offer them back again as refurbished items – with a 12-month warranty.

 Barbara – Rebuy Service 

I am Barbara and responsible for the rebuy section at Manitober. So I receive your (no longer) used Manitober pieces, refurbish them and bring them back into the cycle so that they can bring joy to someone else. In the past I have worked in various design and PR agencies as well as companies, including six years in Ireland. Our daughter spent her first two years there. I really loved the country and its people, but in terms of gender stereotypes there is still more catching up to do than here. If a girl doesn't wear a pink dress there, it must of course be a boy... That's why I'm happy to contribute my part to a more colourful, diverse fashion world at Manitober and also to combine my hobby, the sewing, with my work.

 

 

Marcus Kraft – Founder and CEO

I'm Marcus, founder and CEO of Manitober. After more than ten years in the clothing industry, I founded Manitober in the fall of 2017 with a desire to do it better. Better in the sense of sustainable, conscious, fair, free. As a father of two children, I’ve had the chance to make many points of contact with children's fashion and have been able to observe what needs parents have and what I missed myself. Since then, Manitober stands for me as an alternative to commercialized mass products far from pre-defined gender definition. Manitober should offer parents, families, friends a sustainable, fair alternative and sees in our children an open-minded, tolerant and courageous new generation.
