Welcome to Bolos and Yoyos — a Filipino-American streetwear brand built from grit, grind, and generations of hustle. We’re not here to fit in; we’re here to represent. Born from the intersections of Manila and the melting pot streets of the U.S., our style is a mix of barrio pride and city attitude — a collision of heritage and hustle that speaks louder than words.
At Bolos and Yoyos, every piece we drop carries a story. The name itself pays homage to the duality of who we are — “bolo” for the blade, “yoyo” for the bounce — tough when we need to be, smooth when we want to be. That’s the Filipino way: resilient, adaptable, and always ready for whatever life throws. Our designs fuse that Pinoy identity with the energy of American street culture — bold graphics, gritty textures, and a whole lot of confidence.
We draw from the chaos and color of home — the jeepneys, the karinderya lights, the graffiti on cracked walls — and remix it with the pulse of the diaspora: LA nights, NYC subways, Bay Area block parties. It’s Filipino soul with an urban edge. From oversized tees to hoodies and snapbacks, every drop is made to move with you — whether you’re skating downtown, hanging with the crew, or grinding on your next big thing.
Bolos and Yoyos isn’t just a brand; it’s a statement. It’s for the anak ng bayan who grew up between worlds — speaking Tagalog and English in the same sentence, eating adobo with a side of fries, blending tradition with rebellion. We don’t chase trends; we make our own lane. Every collection is limited edition — no mass production, no copies — just authentic, raw, and unapologetically Filipino-American.
We keep it real with local creatives and homegrown makers from both sides of the Pacific. Each collab, each print, each stitch gives back to the culture that raised us — from the street vendors in Quezon City to the underground designers in Cali. We’re building a bridge, not a brand.
Our mission is to redefine what it means to be Filipino in the modern world. To wear our culture proudly — not as nostalgia, but as power. To remind everyone that brown skin, loud roots, and endless hustle are something to flex, not hide.
This isn’t your lolo’s barong. This is heritage remixed.
This is Filipino streetwear with bite.
So rep your roots.
Speak your slang.
Stand tall in the threads that tell your story.
Bolos and Yoyos — sharp like the blade, smooth like the bounce.
This is us. This is the movement.
