A HIGH-END Italian streetwear brand Hogan is set to open its first store in the Philippines in October, according to Duty Free Philippines Chief Operating Officer Vicente Pelagio A. Angala.
In a statement, Mr. Angala said the Hogan store will open at Luxe Duty Free, the company’s outlet within the Mall of Asia complex in Pasy City.
“We are extremely honored and proud to welcome Hogan into our Luxury offer,” he was quoted as saying.
Luxe Duty Free houses top fashion brands such as Furla, Kate Spade, Coach, Longchamp, Hugo Boss and Michael Kors.
“Luxe Duty Free was developed to house the most upscale travel retail offer in the country through its luxury ambiance for prestige beauty, fashion, and luxury brands,” Mr. Angala said.
Hogan, which is part of global luxury goods group Tod’s, is known for its high quality, stylish footwear. Aside from Hogan, Tod’s also owns a namesake brand, as well as Roger Vivier and Fay.
“It is surely a momentous occasion for Hogan to be opening its very first travel retail store at Luxe Duty Free. We are proud to be serving the international travelers and customers of Luxe with our Made In Italy sneakers, making their traveling effortlessly cool and a comfortable one,” Suh-hee Park, Tod’s group head of sales for Asia Pacific, was quoted as saying.
Hogan’s new store will feature the autumn/winter collection, which was inspired by the North Pole.
