Founded in New York, United States, in 1982, Andrew Marc is an outerwear brand. Created by founder Andrew Marc Schwartz and his wife, Suzanne Schwartz, it began with leather jackets and focuses on men's and women's outerwear.

G-III Apparel Group acquired the brand in 2008, and it continues to operate as a brand owned by the company.

Sub-brands

  • Marc New York 1987

    Marc New York is a related brand that shares the same brand lineage as Andrew Marc. In G-III’s corporate materials, Andrew Marc and Marc New York are treated as separate in-house brands and distinguished as related brands rather than as a single Andrew Marc collection. Centered on outerwear, including leather jackets, it also offers apparel and bags, serving a broader everyday wardrobe than the Andrew Marc main line, which positions outerwear as its core. “Marc New York performance,” launched within Andrew Marc in 2013, was renamed AM Sport in 2022 and is a separate line, distinct from the Marc New York brand as a whole.

  • AM Sport 2013

    AM Sport is a sub-line of Andrew Marc. It began in 2013 under the name “Marc New York performance” as activewear for an active lifestyle. It later expanded its scope to everyday casualwear while retaining active elements, and was renamed AM Sport in 2022. With this name change, it was positioned as a line covering both sports and casualwear rather than being limited to performance use. In contrast to the main Andrew Marc line, which focuses on outerwear, it is positioned to cover everyday clothing that incorporates athletic elements.
