Announcement everyone. DPP and Columbia Sportswear just inked a deal for Columbia to become the official apparel supplier of DPP. For those of you who don't know the brand, just go to any fashionable mall in the Philippines and you will find a Columbia store there. The company, by far, creates the best outdoor gear of any company I know. Their products fit photographers perfectly from their basic cotton shirts, to their tech wear that offer moisture reduction and even UV protection. Ladies will also be happy because Columbia also has a great assortment for Ladies.

As for DPP, Columbia will be creating a special DPP T-Shirt. They will also make available a selection of their tech apparel that can have the DPP logo placed on it. We are working out the logistics now on how to get custom ordered DPP shirts. We will also try to work out a system where DPP members will be given special discounts on purchased items other than DPP product.

On top of all this, Columbia will also be active with DPP. Expect some outdoor photo events/contests in the near horizon.

I'll post more over the next few days.

This is a really great news. Columbia is one of my trusted apparel brand when I was still active in mountaineering back then. It was not available locally that time but I still did get a Columbia Titanium climbing jacket & pants. They're still intact after more than 7 years of use :)

Hi, Dino! So what's the target date for the market release of our DPP Columbia sportswear? a few weeks from now? a few months? tomorrow?

:) I ve been waiting for this stuff for so long now. DPP & Columbia, perfect combination.

Game na! DPP + Columbia!

uyy, cant wait! :)

hmmmm...what a great combination! can't wait to wear it...

So what's the target date for the market release of our DPP Columbia
sportswear? a few weeks from now? a few months? tomorrow?

Same question here:) I hope its soon

to all,

we are still working on the design/s at this point...perhaps nick is the right person to answer as to when the official launch date of the shirt is. but rest assured it's in between tomorrow and 2 months from now ;)

Sana indi Mahal... = )

sana magkaroon din ng DPP car stickers....http://www.digitalphotographer.com.ph/forum/images/icons/icon7.gif

ship to hongkong please....

Good job Nick & Dino.

kudos dpp and columbia! collared shirt please.

or how about pocket tees? or DPP logo on the left chest and Digital Photographer Philippines printed at the back.

the bag i use as a camera bag is a Columbia. :)

Can i have another choice?

I own a couple of TNF and Columbia Trail Polo. Long sleeve which can be converted to short sleeve with back and side air vent. I use these everytime i go outdoors shooting. I think this is perfect for DPP outdoor photographers. Lots of pockets for photo accessories. It would be nice to have a DPP logo embroidered infront.

Trail Polo Shirts and other models of Columbia's Top Tier apparel may be made available for DPP members. We are working out the minor details now with them. Most likely a DPP logo can be placed over the left pocket or something. Columbia will also work by providing a discount for those who purchase DPP logo products.

wow! at last DPP shirts.
@Nick- can we put an additional DPP logo at the back, below the neckline between the shoulder blades maybe?

Yay! Finally, DPP shirts! :)

Round Neck Cotton T-Shirt- DPP logo on chest Color=gray

does this comes with Columbia warranty if its gray item?

hoping that it will have a size for fashionably plump people like me.. :)

yehey :Grin: finally we can get to have one :) kudos to Nick and to DPP for taking care of this...

to jun,

these will still be authentic Columbia apparel so no grey issues like in our camera gears ;)

Just a question Sir? Am I already a member of dpp since Im already a member of this forum? or is there a separate membership for dpp per se? I had another membership in one forum (not photography related) but they have a separate membership for the club itself and being a member of the forum does not of itself becomes a member of the club per se.:)

Any update on this plan?

Excuse my ignorance but what's a 'Tech shirt'?

Yes Irwin, theres a Columbia branch in Podium.

any updates on the shirt?

winston: tech shirts are made of lightweight materials that offer uv protection, easy to care for and fast drying. they are similar to the nike dry fits or adidas climacool shirts.

okay ito specially if offered with extra pockets for our gear! kelan kaya magkakaroon?

updates? when will the shirts be available?
