About MyBarong.com
Why You Should Shop MyBarong
- You’ll experience fashion and service done remarkably. You’ll get the best of Philippine embroidery, fabrics, and embellishments that are adapted into modern styles. You’ll get the latest trends and styles in a Barong as this classic shirt evolves.
- It’s your exclusive source for the “White Jusi”™ Barong (we created this special fabric). “White Jusi” is widely popular among our grooms who want their wedding Barong / shirt to perfectly match their bride’s pure white wedding gown.
- Your Barong must fit. We’re the only Barong store in the world with standardized sizing per U.S. size standards. We did this in response to the numerous “calls for help” we had received from U.S. customers who had tried to buy their wedding Barongs from other web sites, through a family member in the Philippines, or directly from a Philippine-based store. These customers had come to us only after receiving their order from the Philippines, and after finding that their Barongs were too small (i.e. a size “Large” in the Philippines is much smaller than a “Large” in the U.S.).
- Your size is here. You get the widest range of sizes in the world, from 0-3 months to 5XL, and custom tailored for any other size you need.
- You get impeccable customer service. Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed & our return / exchange policies make your shopping experience at MyBarong easy & worry-free. If you’re not happy, we’re not happy. Our customer service representatives are knowledgeable and friendly.
