Our Story

Smartee Pants Clothing creates sassy clothing for babes of all ages with fashion-forward designs and creative sayings inspired by children’s “larger-than-life” personalities and the “young-at-heart” attitudes of the rest of the world! The essential tee, fitted tank and infant necessities, such as onesies, are glammedup with safe, washable, decorative rhinestones. Our unique and adorable designs can be worn anytime…little girls will wear their sparkly shirts everyday! Every style is wash-and-wear 100% brushed cotton making them comfortable, practical and durable for everyday living. Smartee Pants’ gear brings out the inner fashionista in everyone.

After searching for a unique birthday shirt for her daughter’s first birthday with no luck, JoAnne Mantz decided to create one herself. Friends immediately wanted her creations for their children too, and, by word of mouth, hundreds were sold! The birthday shirts and diaper covers were introduced to the public and have now grown to include over 700 stores, a celebrity following and an international presence.

SmarteePants is a sister company of Mama Bebe & Co., a seller of fine gifts created especially for those with babies in their lives. Mama Bebe & Co. and Smartee Pants have been featured in magazines throughout the country, including Parents and Baby Talk.

Today the line has expanded from baby clothes to everyday fun items for toddlers, teens, women and even moms-to-be. In 2007, personalized pillows, bibs and tees have hit high demand. All Smartee Pants items are not only great apparel, but fabulous gifts too.

Inspired by everyday parenting trials and tribulations and the ability to laugh at these challenges, we are constantly adding new designs and sayings…as Moms ourselves we get lots of “Ah-Hah!” moments that inspire ideas - so be sure to check back with us often! Go ahead…be a little Smartee Pants!
