rainman Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 Lately, I'm a bit dissapointed by the ugly fashion trends that seem to haunt Bangkok malls. I can't seem to find a shirt that I like and I remembered the "Abercrombie" shops from when i was in the US. I haven't seen any of them in Bangkok at all ..does anyone know if there's one somewhere?

PaulUSA302 Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 (edited) If you want to be in fashion and on the razors edge of style like us here in the USA than you don't need an A & F store to dress like an American. Go out and buy a white tee-shirt that is long enough to reach your knees and it should be baggy. You will also need a cheap pair of jeans that are loose enough that you can put both hands inside the waist with little trouble. For shoes, you will need to wear some Timberland boots or expensive name-brand sneakers... You may want to top the outfit off with a baseball cap or a wool cap that only covers your head partially. You can accent the outfit with fake gold chains or a snazzy cell phone. With my advice and a little shopping, you too can become a "Cool-Papa-Do"........

No Abercrpmbie shops in Thailand Perhaps not, but there must be Abercrombie clothes available...authentic or not. My girlfriend bought me an AC polo when I was over there last week. It sure looked authentic to me. I will ask her later where she got it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 She mentioned she got the shirt at Seacon Square. Don't think there are any AC stores in Thailand, but this place must have an outlet store of some sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilyushin Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Recently saw A&F at the Export Shop Klongtan intersection first soi ( left) off Ramkhamhang next to UM Tower opposite Nasa Vegas HoTel. Quality was the same as the States, but the prices much better. Boutiques will have it in most big shopping centers. Happy shopping! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KireB Posted April 17, 2007 Share Posted April 17, 2007 Please don't dress like an American, unless you like white socks in combination with shorts. Excuse me, but Americans, in general, are the worst dressers on the planet! Let's face the reactions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's face the reactions! I'm not planning on "dressing like an American". But to be honest, I got sick of finding nothing that I like even in European/Italian import shops like Dapper, etc. I remember I bought some nice shirts from AC when i was in the US so I just thought I'd check it out if there was a shop.

jeebusjones Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Do you remember quite a few years ago there was a popular (and AWFUL) pop song that said "I like girls who wear Abercrombie and Fitch..." I've refused to wear AF since that song. It made me sick. It's funny though because you see a lot of Thai people wearing AF, but since there are so few legit AF sellers in Thailand (if any), you automatically know 99% of it is fake.

Jamie Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 Here in the States that AC stores smell like they dropped a couple bottles of cologne. Gives me a headache just walking past them in the malls. I prefer American Eagle, but if I could afford it, I'd shop at J. Crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirlian Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 (edited) Sorry for bringing up an old topic, but does someone have information of AUTHENTIC dealers of AF in Bangkok/Khorat? Like stated before fakes can be found anywhere but I'm looking for authorized resellers... If someone's been to those Export Shop Klongtan or Rangsit shops I'd like to get more confirmation of the authenticy... Thanks in advance.

Great prices compared to the UK, especially with the exchange rate at present. Even with the postage to Thailand, it works out better or not much worse than the prices here, especially if you're looking for something in particular. Got my all-time favourite Spezials for about 2,500 baht, including postage. Some sellers do hike up postage costs though - check around. I can't recommend a seller though because no-one seems to consistently stock good wheels. Edited November 24, 2007 by KhaoNiaw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ignoramus Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 kopite -- a few years ago, and probably recently too as they recycle this stuff -- one of the current affairs shows had comparison tests of various trainer brands, expensive and inexpensive. As is often the case with these things, the cheaper Dunlop KT26's proved as good as the big brand stuff. Dunno about e-bay, Thai availability etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
