Barong tagalog on sale, in your own size
These are reduced styles from across the store, still cut to your measurements in the full size run. Unlike our clearance page, where one piece exists in one size, everything here can be made for you.
A barong tagalog on sale here is the same garment we sell at full price, so the saving comes out of our stock position rather than out of the fabric or the sewing. The mix changes as stock moves. At the moment it leans towards boleros, alampays and classic barongs in organza and jusilyn, with a few premium pieces and accessories alongside.
What tends to be on sale
Reductions follow the stockroom rather than the calendar, so this is not a seasonal sale that lands at the same time each year. A style usually appears because we have fabric in depth, because a colour is being retired, or because a run came out larger than the orders behind it. That means the page is worth revisiting: what is here in March may be gone by May, and something else will have taken its place.
-
Boleros and alampays
The easiest way into Filipiniana, because a bolero goes over a dress you already own. Amy in black organza and Shalanie in pink turn up here often.
-
Classic barongs
Everyday formal pieces rather than showpieces: Alfred in jusilyn, or Jacobo in lined organza.
-
Shawls and panuelos
A Maria Clara alampay or an embroidered panuelo finishes a baro't saya without a new dress.
-
Accessories
Ear cuffs, earrings and pins from our Philippine accessories range, which cost little and finish an outfit.
Choosing a fabric
Fabric decides comfort more than cut does, especially in a warm church. Here is how the four you will see most often behave.
| Fabric | How it feels | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Jusilyn | Soft, light, easy to care for. Forgiving if it creases. | A first barong, hot weather, long days. |
| Organza | Crisp and sheer. Holds its shape and holds a sleeve up. | Boleros, alampays, photographs. |
| Jusi | Fine and slightly textured, with more body than jusilyn. | Weddings and formal ceremonies. |
| Cocoon | The dressiest, with a soft sheen and real weight. | Grooms, sponsors, evening events. |
If you want a particular fabric rather than a particular price, browse by it instead: jusilyn, organza, jusi or pina cocoon.
Size and fit
Buying a barong tagalog on sale does not cost you the fitting, which is the part most people worry about. The order still goes to a sewer with your measurements attached.
Everything here is made to order, so the size you choose is the size that gets sewn. Measure in inches and check the chart before you order. Philippine sizing runs smaller than US, Canadian or Australian sizing, so the label you usually buy is not a safe guide.
Between two sizes, or need a sleeve length that is not standard? Ask us about custom fitting and we will cut to your own numbers.
Questions about sale items
Is a sale barong made differently from a full price one?
No. Same fabric, same sewers, same construction. The price is lower because of stock, not quality.
Can I still get custom sizing on a sale item?
Yes. Everything on this page is made to order, so custom measurements are available.
How long until it arrives?
Made-to-order pieces take longer than stock. Current timelines by country are on our shipping page.
What is the difference between this page and clearance?
Sale items are made in your size. Clearance items are single pieces that already exist in one fixed size.
Can I order a matching set?
Yes, and it is easier than mixing single pieces. See couple and family sets.
Do you ship outside the Philippines?
We ship to the USA, Canada, the UK, Australia, the Middle East, Asia and Europe.
Will the same style be on sale next month?
Possibly not. Reductions track our stock rather than a fixed calendar, so a style can come off sale once the fabric behind it runs down.
