Men’s Fashion

I know, I know, it's not really a good time to talk about being fit knowing that the holidays just ended and we all overate and have bulging stomachs. But hey you all health-conscious guys and gym addicts - here is something that will inspire you to get more toned and fitter this year.

The Mayans were just wrong and I thank God that 2012 was not the end of the world. As a matter of fact 2012 had been an awesome year for me and I hope it had been the same for you. The year passed by so fast and I couldn't believe I am writing another PGG yearender. So without further ado here are the Top PGG stories of 2012.

When I first discovered 101 New York a few years back, I liked their clothes but somehow their designs did not stick to my mind because they were all dark and black.

In the company where I work, all parties are costume parties.

Last Monday, I picked-up my dad from the airport. He came home just in time for Christmas and you could just imagine how excited our family was.

After posting about Giordano yesterday, I received some emails and posts on Facebook from some readers asking what other good finds are on sale. So guys, this post is for you.

When I got the news early this week that Giordano will be having an Anniversary Sale, I got thrilled. I mean who wouldn't? After all it is not very often for you to find a sale of a popular style brand wherein all items including new arrivals are being sold at 30% off.

Have you seen Skyfall? Well you should have. It is one of the most breath-taking movies in the James Bond 007 series because of its non-stop action and suspense.

Aside from Gradient Pants, there is another style innovation going on in the last few months. What is it? It is the massive explosion of ankle pants.

I bet that since the start of the NBA Season this week, all of you guys have been tuned-in to Basketball TV almost the entire day especially this long weekend. I could just imagine a lot of you fighting with family members and friends who dare to switch channels.

There is one phenomenon happening in the style community today. It is the influx of pastel colors in almost every men's clothing available.

The British guys have their own unique style and choice when it comes to picking clothes and shoes to wear. I somewhat like their fashion sense because it is classy, manly and retrosexual.

In the last couple of months, I have been hearing a lot of good words about Azta Urban Salon. I have read about them on the Internet and even PGG Forum member ctan has recently talked about his positive experience here.

Local brand Solo, has been really successful with their annual cartoonist collection and model search and this year they are making it happen again.

In the past month, there has been a lot of fuss going on about London shirts.

Gone are the days when you solely make use of the term "gradient" to refer to Adobe Photoshop's artistic effects because now, we also use the same term to describe the latest style in town - Gradient Pants for Men.

So when was the last time you bought a leather belt?

The thing about scuba diving is that it can be both fun and at the same time quite dangerous due to a number of factors, one of which is, prolonged exposure to underwater pressure. Hence, a reliable watch which can help you track your time under the water is a must. And this is where Tudor Pelagos Men's Diving Watch comes into the picture.

When you hear "Quiksilver", one thing immediately comes to your mind. Surfing. It is as if the two words are synonymous with each other.

There are some clothes or accessories you can buy which are non-branded but are still acceptable for a guy to wear. Some of these are shirts, shorts, socks, necklaces and maybe some undergarments.

Over the news, a controversy about skinny jeans and its harmful effects to men's health are circulating around.

If there is one type of jacket that has been so popular since last year, it would be none other than the varsity jackets.

The past week has been really rainy in the metro and one thing I couldn't help not to notice are the ubiquitous samurai umbrellas.

Right now, some students are still enjoying their last weekend before they start classes next week. And if you are one of them I am quite certain that you are cramming to get your school stuff ready. Backpacks, uniforms, new clothes, new notebooks and all - your getup wouldn't be complete without a new pair of shoes.

Yo PGG dudes. I would like to invite you all to All For Him: The First Lifestyle Event for Men which is going to be held this June 15, 16 and 17 at SM Mall of Asia's SMX Convention Center. Pinoy Guy Guide is a media partner of the said event.

I remember there was a time when FILA was almost equal in ranks with Nike, Adidas and Reebok. They used to be the big four when it comes to athletic wear, and that was the time of the '90s and early 2000s.

I thought this was a rumor, but it's not. It looks official. SODA, the brand behind Blue Soda a.k.a Soda Man (for men's wear) and Pink Soda (for women's wear) is closing. Actor Dennis Trillo was the endorser of their men's apparel.

Let's take a break from branded apparel and dive into low-cost men's fashion. Our destination? Tutuban Mall in Divisoria.

When I was a kid, I fret when I see "Back to School" signages in department stores. It's like, who doesn't hate it? I mean all those homeworks, sleepless nights reviewing for quizzes (and waking up early) can freak you out when you are reminded by them.

I've been wanting to buy a Sperry since I featured them here back in November and it was only a couple of weeks ago that I managed to get myself a pair called Sperry Top-sider Bahama Men's Boat Shoes.
