DETERMINANT marks their fifth year in business with the expansion into the Singapore market in 2025, starting with their first pop-up store at Takashimaya Level 3 Men’s Department. This 320 sq ft concept space will showcase a prelude to their wide range of functional, essential apparel, which will be displayed in their first physical store, scheduled to be unveiled in Q3 2025.
In terms of designs, there are 42 for dress shirts ($75-$120), 27 for polos ($60-$75), 17 for T-shirts ($45-$55), five for outerwear ($150) and 12 for bottoms ($120).
DETERMINANT began as a start-up company in Hong Kong in 2020. Their unique proposition was to offer white dress shirts in an astounding 61 size combinations. This proposition came full circle in September 2021 in the form of the “THE61S” campaign, when DETERMINANT engaged 61 real gentlemen to showcase all 61 sizes.
Today, DETERMINANT is known for engineering dress shirts with great fit, premium quality, and clean styling. In addition to these hallmarks of excellent tailoring, the brand has also incorporated innovative technology to enhance the wearer’s comfort. DETERMINANT harnesses 1,947 patented technologies to offer cutting-edge functions such as DP3.5 Wrinkle-Free on 100% cotton, VISDRY™, InstantCool, and Regal Finishing.
“DETERMINANT enters Singapore as the leader in Made-in-Asia essential menswear that combines craftsmanship, technological innovations, and a profound understanding of what truly fits the Asian man. Our products deliver quality that endures, a precise fit by offering no less than 61 size variations and premium fabrics enhanced with functions,” enthused Mr Clement Chan, General Manager for DETERMINANT APAC.
He added: “Driven by our success in Hong Kong, DETERMINANT is ready to excel in a similar market here in Singapore, where the local males are function-savvy, and are willing to invest in value-for-money purchases. Singapore is one of DETERMINANT’s key markets and a launchpad for our regional ambitions.”
DETERMINANT plans to open its first physical store in Singapore in Q3 2025. Between 2025 and 2026, expect experiential pop-ups that showcase DETERMINANT’s patented technologies and campaigns to promote refreshing collaborations with local brands.
