Textiles in Thailand
usually

cheap and low priced,
have a good quality and are up to date in terms of fashion.Thais are very creative,
many times you will find textiles on various apparel markets one can
spot a half year later in Europe and the USA.
Many times someone who
walk around in the different textile markets - with eyes not wide
shut - and has the finger on the "textile pulse" can
see that actually the fashion guys and galls are taking the ideas of the
creative Thais and not the other way around.
It doesn't matter if
its
men's textile,
women's textile,
wholesale textile,
athletic textile,
sports textile,
fitness textile,
sport
textile ,
college
textile,
dance
textile or any
other
textile material
like Thai silk etc., its the same with all textile market.
If you want to find a
real native textile, look for a OTOP shop, OTOP means "one tambon one product",
tambon is county in Thai. The idea was to have the people in one
area concentrate on one particular
textile
product for shopping.
You will always find products from famous
well known worldwide recognized brand names like "the crocodile"
shirts, all kinds of luxury luggage from the French manufacturer, watches who really look
exactly like the original etc.
One ask himself what should Ibuy, its so many. Only one thing is for sure all this not
original stuff looks the same like the original and .... now it comes
.... is most of the time better in terms of quality than the extremely
overpriced original items. How come ? most of the goods come from
the same factory who produce the original Europeans items, its called
overstock and surplus. The difference is only the
money the European luxury companies pump worldwide into advertising etc. why should a
customer nurture the ad companies? This actually is a endless story and
the advice can only be bargain and buy the good stuff in Thailand and
forget the European, US or elsewhere stuff.
Now they scream what is this
guy talking etc. .. it makes me laugh I know how this companies are
working because I served their computer systems for many years and saw
everything. A example, a Spanish or Austrian etc. company buys a license
from Pierre Cardin to sell apparel under the Pierre Cardin brand.
They produce the stuff and fix
the Pierre Cardin logo on the back of the jacket. The Pierre Cardin logo
is the only piece of textile which comes from Pierre Cardin.
Pierre Cardin never saw the apparel pattern, never checked the
quality, don't know anything what is sold under his name, but
gets a lot of money for the logo textile. This is a awful method
of cheating the consumer who thinks this was a suit made by Pierre Cardin
and is willing to pay the extra price ticket for it, he don't know that
he or she is cheated by some textile companies.
The conclusion is don't
think even twice to buy any of this low priced textile, cloth
in Thailand follow your instinct only and don't believe anything what
the lobbyists in Europe and elsewhere try to tell you, they getting paid
to make a consumer fool out of you.
On top of it those high
priced brands are priced so high because they invest about 80% of their
income in brand and marketing development, high priced ads in glossy
fashion magazines etc. and the consumer must pay for this, the consumer
get nothing out of this only higher prices, no improve in quality etc.

Summa sumarum, you the
consumer are milked like a cow to pay for the egocentrics of some
fashion gurus without anything in return but a silly, useless name.
No matter if its
men's textile,
women's textile,
wholesale textile,
athletic textile,
sports textile,
fitness textile,
sport
textile ,
college
textile,
dance
textile or any
other
textile material
like Thai silk etc., its the same with all textile market.
