COLLAB by Inspi is a Philippine clothing and lifestyle fashion brand operating as a sister brand or sub-brand of INSPI, offering affordable casualwear, streetwear-inspired apparel, basics, activewear, and everyday essentials for men and women. The brand primarily distributes its products through major Philippine e-commerce platforms such as Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop, with a strong emphasis on value-oriented pricing, trendy silhouettes, and versatile wardrobe staples. [1]

COLLAB by Inspi focuses on creating modern everyday clothing influenced by Korean casual fashion, minimalist aesthetics, and contemporary streetwear. Its collections include oversized T-shirts, polo shirts, jackets, trousers, shorts, underwear, sportswear, and coordinated apparel sets designed for daily wear.

The brand targets consumers seeking fashionable yet budget-friendly clothing without sacrificing comfort or versatility. Its product lineup frequently incorporates neutral color palettes, oversized fits, textured fabrics, and minimalist graphic prints that appeal to younger audiences and online shoppers. [2]

Although INSPI traces its origins to 1989, COLLAB by Inspi appears to have been introduced much later as an expansion of the company’s fashion portfolio into digital-first retail channels. INSPI states that its mission is to “bring happiness, positivity, and inspiration through its designs.” [6]

The trademark “COLLAB BY INSPI” was filed in the Philippines on 3 June 2021 under Class 25 (Clothing, Headgear, Footwear), indicating the formal establishment of the brand identity as a separate clothing label. [7]
