Darrel Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I've spent the last 3 days traipsing around markets and shops looking for something that I would have thought would be easy to find: plain single-colour cotton T-shirts in farang size (probably a small XXL). Have I found any? No. Loads of T-shirts with stupid messages, pictures, designer labels, multiple colours, frills, bells, whistles. But no normal plain cotton T-shirts. I'm after light grey or maybe dark green or dark blue. Not white or black or poly-cotton. Fairtrade organic unbleached cotton would be nice, but that's probably asking too much. I bought several of these last summer back in farangland for about 3Euros each (120B) but didnt think I would need to bring a suitcase-full here (coals to Newcastle). Has anyone seen any of these mythical beasts recently? If so, where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrel Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 Good idea. I'll have a look tomorrow. So many T-shirt shops around I didnt think of anywhere like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melsnet Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Thep Prasit Road weekend market - my Thai GF gets them for me - 50 bahts each, good quality and in lots of different colours Edited February 22, 2011 by melsnet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrel Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 No sign of cheap plain T-shirts in Central Festival, though they did have some "plain with small logo" ones for the bargain price of 1290B. Needless to say I didnt buy any and instead will be looking at the 50B ones in the weekend market that was mentioned. 1290B for a T-shirt. What a joke.
