RedFxTrade Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 (edited) Its certainly part of the Thanon Ko San culture, and Ko Phang An. It is kind of cringe worthy watching a farang walking down Ko San in bare feet, burnt to a crisp, no top on, and a pair of linen fisher pants on...They spend their days sitting in guest house bars watching movies, and talk about how they are into the Thai culture "man" and love Bangkok, and you think, but you have only been in a 1 square KM area of a 1700 km metro area of Bangkok Edited May 19, 2011 by RedFxTrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrtoad Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 It's one of the things that The Great Unwashed seem to think looks cool, when in fact they look like complete tossers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 It's one of the things that The Great Unwashed seem to think looks cool, when in fact they look like complete tossers.

The one time l went to Pattaya, saw a bloke in a Linen suit, to go with it had long dyed black hair and goatee beard, matching shirt undone to the waist and the biggest chain and medallion l have ever seen, But give him his due, brought a smile to many faces.

Deserted Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 I think they're called fisherman pants right? They certainly look comfortable but also look too much like excess curtain material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nidge Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 When i first moved to Thailand i wore them all the time, they were comfortable and not too hot. Once i properly acclimatized i never wore them again. I think most people look like muppets when they wear them but if there comfortable why should I care?
