the sport shirt / jean / polo thread

[themann]

guys, since there is one thread dwelling on lacoste shirt, it is high time to also discuss other brands...

post the brands you like, you dont like, the bang for bucks thing...

to start the ball rolling...

jag - used to be my favorite but lately quality is not good. in due time it stretches especially is the waist area.

colors - style not good but it does not stretch

hang ten - imported brand that sells P 600 per piece. not bad...

collezione - good style the fabric not that thick, kita nipplies ko

come to think of it, turn off ako sa mga congressman wearing lacoste since they are not supporting the clothing industry.

as for bench, think the outsource most of the product in china. very deceiving thinking it is made in rp

[tinky]

I'm a very laid back girl and most of my clothes are from A&F and Hollister.

If I have to attend a meeting, I get my stuff from Ann Taylor Loft, BCBG, Bebe & Sweet Pea.

I don't pay full price, shops sell these clothes at a fraction of the MSRP when the style is just about to come out or when they're trying to move the products. I always ask the store manager when they get their new shipment because when they get them, the week old clothes' prices get marked down.

i used to love bench..pero nagmamahal narin kasi siya eh. chaka lagi kasi akong baktong (bakat-utong) :lol: at laging kita lalo na sa mga light colored shirts nila...hherherher

now i like the simple yet elegant designs of GAP...

and the youthfulness of AMERICAN EAGLE. (sa AE lang ako nakakabili ng cap ko..dun lang kasi may extra large..laki kasi ng ulo ko.herherhe)

[HyBrideVo]

American Eagle Outfitters & Hollister lang for me and like missZ i don't pay for the full price too i've got some friends kasi who work for these shops hehe

I've got pants from ExpressMen some CK's, DKNY and Levi's

[nicolodeon]

Not brand concious here. Dati, oo pero since nung nagka anak ako, not much. Basta maayos at comfortable isuot, oks ako dun.

Hehe, my style too. The wifey loves the dresses salepriced at Loft, but she's been pretty good at finding nice ones at Forever21 and H&M too.

As for me, Banana Republic used to be a staple, I get shirts and jeans from there, and somtimes go to Express Men for affordable slacks that fit nicely. I have occasional splurges at Nordstrom for Juicy and other brands. Lately...well, it pays to have a sister-in-law who designs men's clothes for a living, it's nice to pay a fraction of retail for clothes =)

ako mga jeans ko binibili ko lang sa Folded and Hung hehehe. ganda kasi ng fit eh, puro straight. 1k+ lang isa, nasa uso ka pa. gusto ko din yun mga jeans sa People are people ba yun. nakabili ata ako isa dun

pero lately nakabili ako ng 2 marlboro classics na straight slacks, 1 aber combie, 1 guess puro orig sa Liberty sa Clark. tig 450 lang isa hahaha lambot ng tela. kaya lang pahirapan humanap ng size ng 30-31. tapos pinapaputol ko sa Farmers Plaza, i-match nila sa same sinulid para sakto fit

Meron na ba dito nagpa-alter ng buong pants? Size 34 levi's ko, pero laki ng pinayat ko mga 32 na lang. Last time kasi ung luma kong pants from giordano dinala ko sa alterations plus, masisira na daw. Ung gilid yata ang titirahin, slim fit na kasi sya pero gusto ko medyo slim ng konti pa hehehe

[empy]

what do you mean by "sports shirts"? casual short sleeved shirts, with or without collars?

mine are mostly KC or Hugo Boss. i have a lot of those plain cotton/spandex Boss or CK shirts because i use them either as undershirts or on their own as super-comfortable casual wear. oks din yung Under Armour

for jeans...i like the type of jeans that are super soft and comfortable - Diesel, Paper Denims and 7's. i guess those are supposedly "uso" these days, but i care more about the fact that they're comfortable.

i don't get those at retail price either

swap na lang tayo bro. meron akong apat na levis 501 na puro size 32 (black, denim blue, brown and gray) puro bigay lang. di ko na din masuot kasi size 34 to 35 na bewang ko ngayon, lakas kasi tumoma at lumamon. ngayon puro dickies ang jeans ko. dun ko binibili sa pwesto nila sa harisson plaza laging sale yung mga 1K++ dati tig 450 na lang hehe.dati mahilig din ako bumili ng polo sa bench kasi mura kaso magastos daw sa kuryente sabi ni inday. hirap daw plantsahin at maganda lang pag bago.

[ssaloon]

For work, I like using Marks & Spencer, Arrow or Van Heusen.

Ok mga sport shirts sa Giordano (Dri-Fit) and Bossini, parehong bang for the back.

Pero mga uma kong RL na long back, ganda pa rin ng bagsak kahit mga 5 years old na siya.

For jeans naman, F&H gets my vote.

HEHEHE bro ganoon talaga patronized your own, mga buwaya kasi

[_Qwerty_]

nakakabili yata ako nang RTWs pag may sale lang.. usually 50% and above.. pero pag maganda kahit 20% pinapatulan ko na..

Lately.. I only buy at MarksNSpencer (for office clothes, ganda din nang mga shirts nila.. meron ngayon yung white with pink stripe.. kaya lang 1,800.. wala sa budget.. tsaka na pag sale, In Style (GAP and Old Navy) - malimit may 50% sale.. pag jeans.. pag sale sa Replay at sa Guess..

[boybi]

Pang everyday clothes ko, Giordano/Bossini/Baleno from HK. Panglabas ko, Lacoste or Nautica. Di ko type ang RL, ang bilis maluma ng tela nya.

[MXFX]

i go for old navy for its price, plain styling, and fit. i also started exploring usa made clothing and found lucky brand jeans, affliction, and drifter shirts. they cost more than im used to, but i justify it with uniqueness (artwork, not-for-the-masses styling) and quality.

[cutedoc]

want to patronizing local products with global quality, try TYLER

i buy my smart casual clothes here, very ungreenhills

the problem with buwaya, rl, branded shirt greenhills and divisoria carry them, sometimes its hard to recognize a real from a fake.

but patronoze the only the real thing=)

[Lucius]

Yep Tyler is good. Have a knit full-zip jacket. Un nga lang dapat once a year ung laundry baka masira sayang hehehe

Regular shirts- giordano, u2

Jeans/shorts- levi's, dockers

Old navy ok din, especially their hoodies. Kaso dito sa pinas masyadong madami na ung fake and halos lahat meron. Pati ung gap.

[antiglenn]

people are people -> medyo mahal nga lang yung products nila pero gusto ko kasi yung design at style nung mga shirt nila kaya napapabili ako kahit mahal.

wrangler -> mga pants at polo nila magaganda may kamahalan nga lang din hehe.
