BookMan Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Might have been a run on all the XL gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasRanger Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 It's the same with outlet places in other countries, lots of XL people around and they buy the stuff up quick, hence you get left with all the smaller stuff they cant shift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marstons Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Try the XL shop in central loads of gear i there up 5 xl on goods destined for the states, plus other brands names like george which is Walmart in the UK so the sizes are accurate.. Cental store have farang shoe shoes in clarks, hush puppies etc. the outlet mall does seem to be a waste of space, did have limited farang size shoes but Central Festival have most things. Always Mikes Mall as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oggie911 Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 have a shop in big c has a small shop loads of xxl and xxlll forgot the name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Export shop at Festival on 2nd Road always has +XL if looking for casual wear. Most of the stuff there is from local factories and was destined for brand-name export but failed the final QC. As for getting XL sized skivvies anywhere in LOS, I reckon the OP is out of luck and needs to explore going commando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrel Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Even in the big Tesco next to the factory outlet you can have a hard job finding XL sizes, or shoes of size 44 or more. XL and 44 are not especially large and would be too small for 50% of the Russians that fill the shop. One would think that Tesco could get it right.

LennyW Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Outside Big C on Sukhumvit, next to the car park/north side entrance there is a line of small shops along the wall, about the middle of that line there is a shop that sells decent quality men's shirts in sizes up to 5XL !! Prices start around 200 Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Javabear Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Mike's Mall has lots of XL sizes. Just make sure you check several vendors to get the best prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's Brazilian so he can be excused for not understanding my precise use of English or the bizarre shoe sizing methods that one finds throughout the world. I barely understand them myself. I lived in Europe so long that the European 44 shoe measurement is the only one that actually means anything to me, and anything else I have to calculate back.

Try Export Shop @seacon square, ground and 1st floor towards Robinson. I think that Mr. Plumbs is talking about Pattaya. He could try at FN Outlet store along Sukhumvit. Did a considerable purchase last year of XL-sized underwear, shirts and slacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After wearing Bata and "Italian" brands for the last 7 years, I finally found a pair of Dr. Martens All leather (except soles) and with re-inforced foot bed. Finally some shoes on my feet instead of plastic bags. Price: THB 3200 instead THB 5800 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around it there are numerous shoe, belt, bag and leather shops. There must be something for you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
