New
Kili-Kili Power Shield Tee
$32.99
Kili-kili means armpit. The shirt pokes fun at the very Filipino focus on whitening deodorant, with the flag and deodorant sticks drawn like a championship crest.
New
Kambing Tee
$32.99
Kambing means goat, so the shirt is a bilingual pun on "greatest of all time," styled like a vintage basketball card.
New
Pogi-mes Tee
$32.99
Pogi means handsome. The design spoofs a luxury brand's orange box and swaps the horse and carriage for a jeepney.
New
Lake Tabo Tee
$32.99
A tabo is the plastic dipper kept next to Filipino bathrooms. The shirt presents it like a national park badge, so outsiders see a nature shirt.
New
Pusoy Veteran Tee
$32.99
Pusoy is a Filipino card game. The shirt salutes the uncles who have been running the garage card table at family parties for decades.
New
Bomba and Chill Tee
$32.99
Bomba is Filipino slang for adult movies, and the shirt riffs on "Netflix and chill" by crediting an uncle's tape collection instead.
