you can get dressed up if you want but you might be a bit hot,anything goes really ...........they might have a smart casual code in the bigger disco's or hotel bars.......in the soi's a thong is all you need

LivinLOS · #3 11-10-2005, 23:16

jeans and a T shirt ??

Not that formal..

Captain · #4 11-10-2005, 23:25

No tie and so. If you are going for dinner in the more expensive places, like laguna or boathouse, maybe it is advisable to dress a bit more than T-shirt and bermuda. But that is personal, they won't refuse you

andy50 · #5 12-10-2005, 00:14

shorts ,teeshirt and a tie ?

For beer bar action wear shorts and t-shirts to start, especially if you have never visited a country with a tropical climate.
1st time I went to thailand I found it too hot and it took some getting used to, but I can wear jeans at beer bars now as the heat don't bother me.

I do sometimes dress smart for Agogo bars in Pattaya, nice trousers and shirts with smart shoes but this is only because the Gogo bars have decent aircon.

Bear in mind that dressing smart propably won't make much of a difference, the way to appear handsome to bg's is by having thai baht in your pocket.

I only dress smart at times because I want to, not because I think it will make any difference to my chances of scoring at real hottie.

best advice for thailand

wear a smile

will get you in to fun, and out of trouble.

As maca asked a question about couples I supposed he was not comming alone to Thailand. Hence my remarks for smart dress when dining in the more expensive restaurants.

Oh..I didn't spot that thread...ignore everything I previously said Maca...unless you and your partner are on the hunt that is.

Wear what you feel comfortable in maca52.

You'll probabaly feel more comfortable in shorts and t-shirt unless you enjoy humidity and sweating.

nickboyuk · #11 12-10-2005, 02:46

I find wearing thin trousers ideal, then you don't get bitten by those damn mossies, or the girls as well.

marc26 · #12 12-10-2005, 03:55

i always listen to people saying you dont have to dress nice and wear what you want but i dont believe that.
do we all pay, yes. some more than others.
i like to wear nice shirts and jeans. and i do think it makes a difference. again, will i end up paying, yes
does the girl love me, no, but may be more interested and show more excitement and fun to be aqround if she finds you attractive.
again to each's own, but i think it definitely makes a difference

Allybabba22 · #13 12-10-2005, 04:36

Its a nice pair of a Jeans and a T-shirt for me always, Brought shirts with me on both trips but its way too hot there for me to wear them, Wont be bringing them again, Dont know how some guys wear them like my mate John, Marc26, Utherman and Dodger to name but a few....

actually, sometimes a long button down shirt will be cooler than a t-shirt becasue it doesnt hang on you. im actually heading off to buy some cool t-shirts for my trip right now, though

Jonas · #15 12-10-2005, 05:23

For me i think i dress in that mode me are for the moment in LOS
often t-shirt and bermuda shourts or shirts and jeans and off course it depends of what me have clean that days !!!

But i can agree with that it is sometimes to hot for wearing jeans .

So long as the T Shirt has nothing to do with LFC

Hi Marc,

I like to wear light linen jeans and 100% cotton shirts (sometimes long-depending if I am out for dinner at a smart place or not) at night which are loose but still tailored-I find this cooler + smarter to wear than shorts etc......daytime tho' shorts + a cool shirt are a must.

I know that I am not so impressed by drunk BMs wearing cut off jeans + singlet tops out at night so I doubt whether any women, BG's or otherwise would be impressed by this either..........take a look at some of the photos shot at MTB or on other threads and you will see that most BMs wear long pants + a smart shirt at night. Despite the P4P atmosphere BMs are after all still trying to impress the lassies............

Allybabba22 · #20 12-10-2005, 15:56

Not so sure about that, A nice pair of Jeans and a T-shirt always works for me and a few other BMs with the ladies

JayBee · #21 12-10-2005, 16:47

I tend to take the middle road between shorts/t-shirt and dressed up. For me, that means usually a nice pair of khakis, and a polo shirt or sports shirt. But sometimes I will go with a nicely laundered and pressed t-shirt with the khakis, which can look nice, too, IMHO.

videolover · #22 12-10-2005, 18:47

btw, why do you bring t-shirts from your country? I thougt of only bringing a few clothes with me, and buy T-Shirts and Jeans in Phuket..

... not a good advice?

floppy · #23 12-10-2005, 18:57
