We cater to a niche that doesn't require an in-person consultation. Therefore, we don’t maintain a physical store. We have a system in place to accommodate custom orders worldwide. To have focus, we have already stopped accepting requests for onsite consultations since the last quarter of 2019.

For some customers, a lack of in-person support is a deal-breaker and that’s completely understandable but this form of support is not something that we offer now. Please contact us if you need our assistance.

We don’t have phone support. Our communication with a customer requires careful attention. Most of the time, the correspondence requires a thorough explanation with supporting illustrations that’s why email is our primary means of communication. We work with customers worldwide with orders that are highly personalized that’s why we keep a written record of the exchange of information. 

For some customers, a lack of phone support is a deal-breaker and that’s completely understandable but this form of support is not something that we offer now. We want to help you get the answers you need.  Please contact us and feel free to ask about absolutely everything on your mind.

The main difference between a coat and a classic barong is the construction style. The coat barong has the same outer material as the classic barong but has a construction style somewhat similar to a suit jacket or coat. To learn more, please click here.

Yes, please send us a photo or an illustration with your instructions if necessary so we can create a quick sketch of the design.

We only offer the best fabric selection for a barong and we are very particular with the quality that's why we don't accommodate the use of any fabric not found in our selection.

All the fabrics that we use for formal barongs are breathable and the least sheer is jusi.

Because the barong fabric is sheer, the undershirt becomes visible and the gaps created by an off-the-rack undershirt make the look inexpensive. To make our customers look impressive and refined, every piece of our classic barong already comes with a complimentary undershirt, a custom-tailored long-sleeve Camisa de Chino that's designed to be worn untucked.

The most white is plain jusi or plain cocoon. 

Another thing to consider is the color of the undershirt because it greatly affects the perception of the overall color.  A light-colored undershirt can be used to dilute the natural color of the barong fabric. 

Please take note as well that the color also tends to change with different lighting conditions.

Yes, we can use threads with different colors or we can dye the fabric to incorporate specific colors. We can also use colored camisa de chino (undershirt).

We don't sell fabric.

Custom orders from the ground up take 4-21 weeks to deliver worldwide depending on the following:

1. Quantity

2. Specs

3. The date we receive an order with complete details 

4. The date when the order is confirmed

5. The volume of orders that we have in the queue at the time the order is accepted

When we receive an order, we get back to the customer with a detailed quote with a fulfillment time, shipping cost estimate (if the delivery address is overseas), and spec sheet/s for approval. The order fulfillment time that we indicate in the detailed quote is not an exact date but a time frame that commences on the date the order is confirmed. A more specific order fulfillment time is provided on a case-by-case basis. When the order is confirmed, it’s immediately queued for processing and execution.

The average order fulfillment time is 2-3 months. A complex item such as (a) raya with full all-over calado or (b) batok with sleeve patterns and full all-over calado may take up to 5 months. To check the estimated delivery time by embroidery method, please check our Shipping and Delivery section.

On rare occasions, a product may need some adjustments. So when planning when to place your order, we recommend that you allow for extra time (at least 8 weeks if possible) between the delivery date and the event date in order for us to have ample time for repair or remake if necessary. To learn more about this, please check our Perfect fit Guarantee.

Yes, because the manufacturing of large pieces requires additional materials and labor. Larger patterns can, at times, present challenges that can only be handled by experienced and higher-paid tailors. 

We don’t offer wedding packages and discounts because each product that we make, from the design drafting to the tailored barong, takes time to finish. There are no shortcuts. Creating a piece involves a series of sophisticated tasks that are done by hand or guided by hand. These tasks require precise work. A single mistake can cause a few days or even weeks or months of delay to rectify that’s why we only work with highly-skilled artisan craftsmen. This breed of genuine Filipino artisans is dying that’s why we work hard to give them everything we can to make sure that our antique methodologies and unique know-how are preserved and transmitted from one generation to another.
