This threads been picking up. I didn't think that there'd be a decent amount of Filipino SuFU members, I guess this proves that we're everywhere.

So, is there anything good to get over here in Manila? Good deals and whatnot?

I know of one place that is alright, still slightly overpriced, but I'm sure you've heard of it. Homme Et Femme, over in Shangrila Mall along EDSA is pretty decent I suppose. They stock a couple APCs and some other brands. Definitely worth a browse.

I gave them a call last night because I wanted to know how much A.P.Cs cost here before buying on the interweb.

A.P.Cs cost like PHP7000+

Not bad IMHO since A.P.Cs go for like $155.

Here's homme et femme's number if you lot want to inquire on what brands they carry or something.

Ooohh, thanks.

Well another place i've got quite abit of experience with is Defacto. It's this place along Mile Long that makes custom tailored denims. It takes a bit of trial and error from both you and them, but I have a couple that fit just amazing.

You can get more info about them at their Multiply site, which address escapes me at the moment.

Sango! Japanese burger. I know it sounds a bit weir but they have the tastiest burgers I have ever had. And the shakes are fucking awsome too!

You can get authentic japanese ramen in little tokyo. It's also near Sango!

japanese food meetup!

[WillKhitie]

japanese food meetup!

Seconded, that sounds like a great idea. Nowhere too overly pricey though. I can't cope with SuFu food prices.

How about local designers? There any that churn out anything worth taking a look at? Im sure there's a few, but it's just abit hard to find.

Im sorry but I did not make myelf clear. The cut can be compared to PS. The stiching,design and fabric..... Can't top PS on that.

Sango! FTW

Funny enough, I was there the day before it made it's way into this thread. I didn't get a chance to try out the food though. Judging by all the trash and mess my friends made, it must be good.

On the topic of local designers, is it because of the quality of textiles we have available here? Or does it come down to the plain construction of the garments?

To be honest the construction is pretty ok for locally made shirt. The textile was obviously different. PS has this very soft silky feel to the fabric. Randy Ortiz's was a tad rough and "elastic".Im lovin the "faux french-cuff" thing the shirt has goin on... The design is pretty good IMHO.

[jsn]

I think it boils down to price, what the public is willing to pay for additional attention to quality and detail.

[lil brown brother]

i think for the most part the big name designers can do a good quality shirt with a good design .. but they opt to cut costs to make their profit margin .....the old designers used to put out good stuff ... old ino soto shirts were nice

[edmond]

and yeah one more thing stay where you aredont come over here cause its too crowded as fuck and it aint a good place to move too unless your broke..
