MANILA, Philippines — Brian Poe Llamanzares joins the roster of ambassadors for designer sportswear Porsche Design Manila.
In preparation of the designer sportswear brand’s 11th anniversary this December 9, the line has been adding prominent professionals such as news sports anchor Migs Bustos, and PBA Coach Charles Tiu to its list of prominent professionals that represent the brand.
According to Porsche Design Manila’s Managing Director Hans Yao, Llamanzares was selected to showcase the brand’s functionality and craftsmanship.
“Brian embodies the professional lifestyle of a new generation. He does his best to balance his day job, his companies, and his fitness. We’d like to believe our brand fits into his active lifestyle perfectly.”

As a entrepreneur, public servant, and philantropist, the 29 year-old says that the brand fits his lifestyle perfectly since his day can get pretty hectic.
“A typical day for me could be a mix of zoom meetings, face to face meetings, and public service… After all that I usually end up at home reading through briefers, decks, messages, and emails while running on my treadmill. It’s really important that what I wear is both comfortable and professional.”
Llamanzares says he also looks forward to exploring other possible synergies.
Porsche Design Manila’s Managing Director Hans Yao says there’s a distinct possibility that they could be working together to give back to Filipinos in need.
“I’m happy to hear Brian wants to help his fellow country men and women. We’re open to hearing about his advocacies and how we might be able to work together for the common good.”
