An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Tonight's Ask PHLemmy: What turned out to be A LOT more expensive than you anticipated?
Vintage shirts. I'm talking band/concert tees from 1992 or whatever that's been worn once, only has one size (usually XL+), and looks beaten up due to age. Goes for like $800-$1000 maybe more. And they buy it to wear it as part of the streetwear aesthetic.
Edit: Here's an example. A Filipino runs that shop.
holy smokes. all those shirts i used to see at ukay shops were authentic too. just not my style i guess.
i havent seen much of them these days. maybe this is why.
