Beyond Archives was founded in 2018 by Jared—also known as Barabai—with a clear vision shaped by years of immersion in thrift culture and streetwear.
What began as an online venture to make ends meet quickly evolved into a deeper pursuit. Through constant sourcing and study, Jared developed a sharp understanding of archive fashion, rare streetwear, and luxury garments—learning not only the names behind the labels, but the craftsmanship, history, and cultural value embedded in each piece.
In the process, he recognized a distinct gap in the Philippine market: a lack of access to globally respected archive and luxury brands, and limited awareness of their significance as collectible works of design. Many of these pieces were available only overseas, leaving local collectors and creatives without access to the broader fashion conversation.
Beyond Archives was created in response.
Now based in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, Beyond Archives operates as a boutique and consignment space offering a carefully edited selection of streetwear, archive fashion, luxury garments, bags, and accessories. Each piece is chosen with intention—valued for its design integrity, cultural relevance, and enduring appeal.
Beyond Archives exists to bridge global fashion with the local market, while fostering a deeper appreciation for clothing as art, history, and self-expression.
Founded by a collector. Curated with purpose. Built for a community that values craft, culture, and authenticity.
