Pupung Goes Solo

It's nostalgia attack this coming September, as Solo brings us their newest installment on their yearly Pinoy Cartoonist Memorabilia Series. This year, Solo proudly features Tonton Young's Pupung.

Most, if not all, may be familiar with Pupung. This iconic comic strip is close to the heart of the Filipinos, mainly because it features similar lifestyle of the typical Pinoy. From Pupung's family's lugawan, to the fascination with basketball, as well as current business trends - Pupung delivers all this and more with winning punchlines and humor. This iconic family-oriented comic strip still appears in Manila Bulletin, never failing to make Filipinos laugh everyday.

Pupung and all your favorite characters like Mommy, Daddy, Lolo Dom, Day, Jordan, Lelong and Larry Bird will be immortalized in a pop collection! This collection comes with His & Hers graphic tees, varsity jackets, polo shirts, woven tops and dresses, men’s long sleeves and shorts, and adorable accessories such as necklaces, toilety pouches, and coffee ceramic cups with covers. The Pupung collection will be available in Solo stores starting September,  which makes it perfect for early Christmas shopping!
