BUM Black Army: Signing Kim Perez and Sparking Change

Change is indeed inevitable, and we're seeing it happen with clothing brand BUM Black Army. 

Following their street laden aesthetic, they've managed to grow with the generation that wore it all. Today, they've gone the route of doing clean lines, more urban, and army inspired designs. It's a pretty significant deviation from the looks they served in previous years... and we loved what we saw! 

A pop up runway show happened during their recent event at Sine Pop, St. Mary Street in Quezon City. This is also the occasion where they bared news of their newest brand endorser KIM PEREZ. He's a good looking host, model and actor. A Sparkle artist known for his roles in MPK, Regal Studios, hit series Hearts on Ice and Black Rider.

 

BUM BLACK ARMY COORDS

Their new collection just felt right. They call it BUM Black Army Coords. From the forest to the desert, or simply the outdoors... you're bound to enjoy a more comfortable line of clothes with the apt colors for the season. The city streets will be so cool with Earth tones, different greens and even charcoal on what you're wearing. Those pullovers, jackets with hoodies, shorts with pockets, won't go unnoticed especially if you try to mix and match them with another. The loose fit, would make you stay quite comfortable no matter where you are. You can stay versatile with each piece, no need for nerfing what you already posess, the confidence and look when you have BUM Black Army on your body. They even have accessories to go with it.

It's time you get tough, clean and be obesessed with #BUMBlackArmyCoords because at the end of the day, you deserve it!

Here's the show on video, enjoy!

Meet KIM PEREZ, the newest BUM Black Army Endorser

Kim was quite nice to talk to. He knew about BUM prior to becoming an endorser of the clothing brand and told us about how he's been using it in shoots, at home or even on occasions. He also likes the prints, the colors, and how it fits with his existing wardrobe. We asked him about what he also feels now that he's part of the illustrious celebrities who have endorsed BUM Black Army.

The trust given to him is humongous, and by the looks of it... it fits him and his personality. I like the various BUM Black Army camouflage prints they showcased during the show, and if it's out in stores, I'm going to be part of the reason why you'll run out of it. Watch out for the materials they're coming out with especially in stores, and mall tours they're planning to do in Visayas and Mindanao.

This is just the start, and if this is the change we're seeing... I'm glad it happened!

If you want to know more about the brand, go follow them on their official social channels. They will also be coming out with the collection in shopping platforms, and TikTok so you just wait!

UNIQLO Outs 2020 Jeans and EZY 2 Way Stretch Ankle Pants

The new UNIQLO 2020 Jeans and EZY Ankle Pants are all up to be available at nearby Uniqlo branches. I’ve been waiting to see what lengths they have done with the Uniqlo Jeans line as they’ve promised a more sustainable way of producing them a couple of years back. The goal was to start it in 2020 and I think they’re making headway as production of stone washed items and laser technology rolled out for distressed textile. 

With that, folks at Uniqlo had us preview UNIQLO 2020 Jeans and the EZY Ankle Pants via styling sessions with Pam Quinones and Bea Constantino. The Uniqlo flagship store over at Glorietta 5 was turned into a showcase of their Spring Summer pieces. 

Cheska Legata says “Uniqlo is crafted for everyone. Pam and Bea will be styling a few people today. We will have a preview of our modern UNIQLO Jeans and the EZY pants can stretch horizontally and vertically.”

Bea says “When you are in the creative field you have to be comfortable, you need to move around, belted or pleated as they are very flattering. Uniqlo also has innovated the jeans, it’s tapered, very chic even on men. The EZY Jeans hold the sweat but is breathable, you can go to Poblacion and out. We also like the parkas, easy and lightweight. You can be casual, but still classy. You can wear em for different occasions.”

Pam says “There are rules but we always can break them. Nice shirts that have no lining can be paired with jackets and pants which you can still wear in this weather. There are so many ways to switch from corporate to party wear, pull up a sleeve, unbutton a shirt, change shoes and you can go from work to twerk in a jiffy. I usually bring 2-3 pairs of shoes in the office. Removing blazers and use accessories, necklaces, wear a bright lip, it changes your look.”

Go check out the pieces at your nearest Uniqlo stores because they’re quite nice even in the PH weather. 

Wrangler Outs 2017 Collection with True Wanderer Jericho Rosales

Set in the center of Trinoma Mall Activity Center, they put up a three level stage for the WRANGLER 2017 collection. It was massive, which made me realize they're doing a runway show and perhaps some tricks with the big bikes that were on display that afternoon.

Clothes were composed of denim like fabric for the shirts, a little acid washed, some plaid, leather and a few jackets. 

There are also several activities in the venue including VR games and small promos.

I specifically like this jacket and I'm going back to the store to get this. If it looks good on the model, it will look good on me haha!

There were several motorcycles on display and it probably would mean someone is going to use it. Your guess is as good as mine.
