Where will I get a decent rain jacket!

Featured Replies

Looking for a gor tex rain jacket or something of similar quality, is there any good online stores for this type of thing in Thailand?

Check pandarider.com they sell what you want and can send anywhere in Thailand.

Bet bet is to go to any Thai shop that caters to commercial fishermen. There are some great ones in Ranong and also in Phuket town. You can buy great quality wet weather gear at bargain prices (with no farang fashion label markup).

check paddock bangkok too.

B1900 isn't cheap. Should be very good quality. Where you got it? Picture? Thanks :)

Only comes in 2 sizes medium and large, really could have done with XL the jacket is a nice snug fit and will keep me dry which is the main thing, came with trousers which again are a snug fit, I doubt I will ever wear the trousers!

Okay the shop owner said it is original so I guess it is Japanese, got it from a shop in Phuket that sells motorbike gear!!

Hi

I picked up a set of Yellow Cone water proofs today at Mad Max of Sukhumvit 103 Udom Suk.

Shop price was over 2,000 baht but their website price is 1,750 baht. The young guy K. First in the shop honoured the website price.

Don't know if this is a good brand or not but it seems nice quality. Time will tell I guess.

Nice shop by the way, lots of accessories in there and a Honda Forza with all the accessories fitted.

Cheers.

The sizes are a little strange. L, LL, LLL. I am about 5' 8" and 38" waist (and a bit of a belly) and the LL was a good size for me. The leggings are a bit long in the leg even accounting for crouching down.

They only had L in the black but all the sizes in the other colours. If I remember correctly they have black, yellow, silver and I think blue for the jacket. I think the bottoms are all black.

Got Revit pants / high viz yellow jacket from Pandarider. Jacket was 2k, pants 1k.

Now that I've got a few downpours behind me, absolutely love it, the pants especially - they're perfectly cut to just pull up over jeans and very easy to put on and take off on the road. The jacket - it's fine, it works.

I've not tried my Taichi suit yet, will report once I have been out in the rain!

plenty of them on Ebay, if not too expensive, under 3-4K you wont pay the 37% I paid on my Scorpion Recruit :)

and buy from a US seller... it arrives in 12-14 days only.
