Dockers & a royal polo match

MANILA, Philippines – It took a friendly polo match under the searing Manila sun to keep the friendly ties between two countries very much alive and burning.

Supporting the long-standing friendship between the Philippines and Brunei, Dockers Philippines recently sponsored the Mabuhay Cup 2016, a friendly polo match among Manila Polo Club’s (MPC’s) top polo players and of the royal family of Brunei, at the Enrique Zobel Field of the Manila Polo Club in Makati City.

“Dockers Philippines is so happy to be part of an important event like this. It’s such an honor for us to be able to welcome the royal family of Brunei and be instrumental in strengthening the two countries’ friendship by sponsoring this friendly polo match,” said Kaths Laudit, Dockers Philippines marketing head.

The event coincided with the brand’s 30th anniversary to remind people that Dockers will continue to innovate while still staying true to its purpose and identity that made it an instant and lasting classic in the industry.

Today, Dockers brand remains at the top of its game by maintaining its status as America’s favorite khaki and the iconic brand for the good guys.

For the event, Laudit says that Dockers collections are perfect for MPC members because it is what you will typically wear to a polo match or to a regular Sunday in the club.

Meanwhile, during the polo match, the MPC team and Brunei’s royal family both scored great wins. The MPC team led by Iñigo Zobel snatched the first game of the afternoon after scoring six points against Brunei’s three points.

However, Princess Azemah-led team of the royal family of Brunei recovered from the first game upset after finishing with five points against MPC’s three points.

The Mabuhay Cup 2016, which celebrates tradition and heritage of two Southeast Asian countries and their good relationship in different fields, was attended by MPC board of directors, members, top polo players and Brunei’s royal family and their entourage.

As it celebrates its anniversary this 2016, the menswear brand promises more exciting collections and innovations to roll out this year, as well as events and promos that Dockers lovers will surely love.
