Most westerners have bigger clothing size tag than asians
Do you peeps have problem buying clothes there?

You'll have a problem finding XXXL. Upstairs in Ocean on Bangla the largest jeans I have seen have been 44.

If you want shirts and have a long temper go to the ever present adn annoying taiors that annopy the living hell out of all life itself - Just remember to knock 30-40% of their initial asking price.

If you want T-Shirts in the very big range they can be found by wnadering and asking - Just make sure you try everything on.

If you want a sure bet the big T-Shirt sellers in Phuket Town definetly have stylish great big sixed tshirts at a bargain. Another tip is the the Supermarket (Like KMart) in the middle of Soi Bangla - Belive it or not I have got a lot of Big Sized clothes from there includinf shorts and the like.

Out here XXXL is known as "Oil Rig Medium"! Now I'm a big lad but Sweet Jesus these blokes!!......... If ever one of them got injured in a scrape out here and needed an emergency casevac he would have to be low-loaded under the chopper. I certainly would not be volunteering for a corner of the stretcher.

They can certainly trough the old food. I've seen 4XL and 5XL, those blokes can't even drive because the seat won't go far enough back! Well, as long as they keep paying the money I can't complain. I'll see if I have any pictures.

I think ladies are a disadvantage in Thailand. Nothing spec about Thai clothes for ladies, so European friends tell me. I think you are better of in Singapore.
