Pinoy designer Robin Tomas' award-winning shirt launched at Bloomingdale's New York

@hearthrob - You just don't get it, do you? Supima, founded in 1954, which is the promotional organization of the American Pima cotton growers, launched an international "Best Reinvention of the Men's T-shirt award at the Supima Design Competition in New York last year". From entries all over the world, Robin ended as one of the top six finalists and eventually became the Grand Winner. You don't think that's big? Do you know that it is more difficult to reinvent something that is already considered perfect as it is like the classic men's T-shirt? (Wrong spelling ang avatar name mo. 'Should be double T.)

Why is it that talented people like this guy has to be recognized by people from other countries? In short, why does it take foreigners to recognize the talent and potentials of Pinoys?! This is the reason why there is brain drain here in our country. Our talented countrymen have to go abroad for their talents and achievements to be noticed or recognized. If this will not change, then sadly, wala ng matitirang talented Pinoys in our poor Philippines. So sad...

eh ano kung t-shirt lang yang ginawa nya??? eh ikaw hearthrob, anong ginawa mo para malagay sa balita? hahaha! yang katangahan mo at angking kayabangan ang magpapasikat sayo.

it just shows that every where the Filipinos excel on their crop.. proud to be pinoy!

heartROB.... sige magdesign ka ng tshirt tignan natin kung panisinin ng bloomingdale's....

I'm interested of having one or more of that T-shirt...How soon will that be avaliable here in the Phl.?

@Hearthrob... be proud to be a filipino.. pinoy k db??

quite ironic that filipinoes tend to do better and tend to excel once they are out of the philippines.

but still it is not something that most pinoys can relate about since this tomas guy is a son of a very rich family and is brought up with nothing but the best and went to the best schools so this success is just expected for people like him. the filipinos would want to hear is stories of success from middle class societies and not this.

well at least this is better than that g@y lingot guy who talks thrash in his blog

lol, ako ang nag wagi!

hi heartrob! bakit masyado kang bitter? na molestiya ka ba nung bata ka? why don't you just be happy for other peoples success, is it becoz you are a big failure?

What makes it different from other shirt? Is it bullet or radiation proof! agh!

Galing mo Robin. You make us proud.

BOBO ba kayo pinoy pride pa sinsabi nyo eh TSHIRT LANG NA BLUE YAN MGA TANGA. tshirt pinoy pride????? HAHAHAHAHA
