Worn with pride. Here, and back home.
Hand-embroidered Barong Tagalog and Filipiniana, made in the Philippines and shipped fast from our U.S. warehouse. For weddings, graduations, and every milestone in between.
The thread comes first
Nearly every piece we carry is embroidered on the front.
Burda, up close
Look closely at the chest of a barong and you will see hours of needlework: vines, geometric bands, calado openwork you can hold up to the light. That embroidery is the whole point. It is what separates formalwear from a plain dress shirt.
Know your fabrics
Organza for an easy-care everyday formal. Jusi for a softer drape. Piña, woven from pineapple leaf fiber, for the once-in-a-lifetime days. Each one has its occasion and its price point, and we carry the spectrum. Read the fabric guide.
Made in the Philippines, sized for America
Every piece is made by Filipino hands and measured against a US size chart we built from real customers. If you are between sizes, the fit center will get you the right one before you order.
The catalog
Barong Tagalog for men. Filipiniana for women.
The two garments every Filipino celebration is built around, in stock and shipped from the U.S.
Rites of passage
One flag. Every milestone.
A baptism. A graduation. A wedding. A farewell. Filipino life in America is measured in gatherings, and there is a right thing to wear to each one.
Our guides walk you through what each occasion asks for, so you can show up dressed with respect and never have to guess.
Eight rays.
One sun.
The sun on the Philippine flag carries eight rays, one for each of the first provinces that rose for independence. Wear the sun and you carry that story with you.
Kapamilya life
A culture you can recognize.
Not a resort brochure. The Philippines of jeepney routes, wet markets, birthday pancit, and Sunday best.
You do not stop being Filipino when you move. You just celebrate harder.
Pride is something you can wear.

Whatever the milestone, there is a right thing to wear. Start where you are.

“Ordered for six groomsmen and my dad. Alex actually answered every question we had about sizing. Felt like family.”

“Three generations in barongs at my grandson’s baptism. The kids sizes ran true and everything arrived with a week to spare.”
Questions, answered
When should I order for a big event?
6–8 weeks ahead is ideal, whether it is a wedding, a graduation, or a baptism. Shorter timelines are common. Reach out and we’ll help you plan it.
How does sizing work?
Our sizing guide is built from real Filipino and Filipino-American measurements. If you’re unsure, we’ll help you get it right.
Do you carry kids and infant sizes?
Yes. Kids barongs and infant barongs ship from the same U.S. warehouse, so the whole family can match for baptisms and reunions.
Can we place a group order?
Yes. Wedding parties, graduating barkadas, and family reunions order together all the time. We’ll help coordinate sizing and delivery. For weddings, start with our Wedding Inquiry form.
How fast is shipping?
Order before 10am CT Mon–Fri (or noon Saturday) and we ship the same day from Minnesota. Free standard (USPS Ground Advantage) takes 4–8 business days; expedited (FedEx 2-Day, flat $11) lands in 1–2.
