If you're wondering where the new Team Manila store is at Rockwell, it's on the second floor next to Shoe Salon, far, far away from its old location at the Archeology wing.
What you're seeing at Archeology is only an outlet sale of Team Manila, which ends this Sunday.
You must go to the other side and see how this small cubby hole at Ecoville

Team Manila

grew into this

In fact, here are Team Manila founders Mon and Jowee in 2005

Team Manila

and today

Success hasn't gotten into their heads. I'd say they're still the same cool guys we met more than four years ago at a Swarovski event.
Only now they're practically a household name in the local graphic design world.
In the beginning they used to sell T-shirts, pouches, badges and a couple of tote bags. Now they have those, plus stationery, clocks, lomo cameras, wrapping papers, children's tees, and more.

Spontaneous art, which I hope they'd do on canvass

grabe, i miss team manila!!!!!
i used to hoard their store everytime i go back home for a visit. that's where i get my pasalubongs...
i so want their clocks and bags. i was quite surprised when i visited them a couple of years and they were already selling lomo cameras.. coolness!

anyway, you wouldn't happen to know if they ship internationally, noh?

My friends and I were one of the few people who would go to Ecoville and check out their stuff hehe (we were all Makati girls back then). I love their concept and still continue to buy their stuff ^_^

And only until recently that I realized that my 2nd cousin, Nico Bacani (the guy in the middle with Raimund M.) is one of the people behind Team Manila lol!

My friends and I were one of the few people who would go to Ecoville

Oops I meant we were one of the 1st few people who went to their store at Ecoville to buy their stuff hehe :)

a very nice looking store! congrats to these guys!

i saw them a few weeks ago in the mall and yes they haven't changed, they are still the same easy nice going guys as years back. I admire there work and commitment... well done!


love the ermats & erpats kids shirt... do people still refer their parents as these?=)

I like! Is there a way for us who live overseas to buy these shirts over the internet? Or should I make a special request for pasalubong lang? ;(

Nice! I first bought Team Manila at SFAS.

i like their stuff esp the shirt designs. too bad they don't carry woman's shirt in my size and getting a men's shirt isn't an option. i wish they start carrying shirts in the plus sizes for ladies.

I love their pouches. I want to collect them..

congrats to mon and jowee! they've come a long long way! :)

i have discovered Team Manila through your site, Ms. C! so, whenever my husband will find himself in Rockwell in one of his trips to Manila (since we are from Ormoc) he would always go visit their store/kiosk for new designs. My hubby, 4year old son & i have shirts from Team Manila. thanks to you for sharing it with us your readers :)
