THE MANI FESTO

I refuse

to build

products

that exist

only to

be replaced.

Today most major eyewear brands are owned or licensed by two global corporations.

Over time, independent craftsmanship became centralized production.

The biggest hoax in modern consumer culture was born. The hoax that heritage remaines when ownership changes.

The truth is when ownership changes, standards often follow.

I

build

what I can

stand

behind

If my name is on it, I take responsibility for it.

Because sustainability is not just a material.

It’s a responsibility.

It starts before the sale and continues long after it.

wood

does not

make

something

sustainable

But building something worth keeping and taking care of it through its lifecycle does.

That is why all my frames are designed to be serviceable., repairable and refurbishable.
Every part can be replaced.

Built

to

last

Backed

for

life

Every frame we make carries a lifetime warranty.

Not as a promise.

But as responsibility.

If it has our name on it,

we stand behind it

for life.
