The Manges are an Italian pop punk band that formed in La Spezia in 1993.

The band's first release was a 2000 split with the McRackins titled Amp Records Battle Royale! In 2001 the Manges recorded their debut album The Manges 'R' Good Enough for Stardumb Records. The album drew comparisons to the Ramones and included a cover of Cyndi Lauper's "Goonies 'R' Good Enough".

The band is closely associated with The Queers, having gone on a European tour with the band; in 2003 the two bands recorded the split album Acid Beaters together. Former Queers bassist Phillip Hill produced the Manges second album Go Down. American punk band Screeching Weasel covered the Manges song "I Will Always Do" on their album Teen Punks in Heat.
