| General info : | | New Man is a brand name used by Belle Étoile SAS, a French men's fashion brand launched in 1967.
The brand is distributed in dedicated boutiques, multi-brand outlets, department stores and via the official website.
In 1967, two French people (including Jacques Jaunet, future co-founder of the brand) returned from a trip to California with the desire to communicate and pass on a lifestyle they had discovered, through a dress code.
In addition to jeans , which appeared in France at the end of the Second World War, Jacques Jaunet sought to innovate by working with materials, and by pairing "seventies" colors : flamboyant red, sunny yellow, "marshmallow " pink, thus contrasting with the colors and regulatory cuts of the time.
In 1968, the brand was purchased by the Indreco group. The following year, New Man created a children's range.
