Thai League club kits and Thai national team kit around Pratunam Area?

honestly skip the main pratunam market drag for thai kits, most of those stalls are all euro clubs. head over to the patpong night market instead, it's a bit south but the sports jersey shops there have way more local league stuff. i grabbed a decent buriram united fake for like 250 baht last month, the quality is fine for that price.

if u want to stay closer, try the small soi behind platinum fashion mall, there's a couple of tiny stalls tucked between the phone shops. they stock some thai national team jerseys but the selection is random, sometimes u'll find old season ones for cheap. just gotta dig through the piles a bit

imo the best thai kit hunting in that area is actually inside the platinum fashion mall itself, not the street stalls. go up to the 4th floor near the food court, there's a sports section that's easy to miss. they mostly have euro clubs on display but if you ask the older lady at the counter she'll bring out a box of thai league shirts from under her table. i found a muangthong united one there for 180 baht

if u want national team stuff specifically, the small shop outside rong majang (the big garment factory near petchaburi soi 19) had a bunch of old thai kits last time i was there. it's not really a tourist spot so the prices are better, i got a 2022 asean cup jersey for like 150 baht. just look for the place with the blue awning, they don't have a sign in english

the sport shops along petchaburi soi 15 usually have a better mix than the main pratunam stalls, i've seen thai league kits mixed in with the euro ones there. there's a shop called k. sport near the ratchaprarop end that had chonburi and port fc replicas when i was there last, about 300 baht each

also worth checking the weekend market at chatuchak if you've got time, section 24 has a few stalls that specialize in local kits and you can sometimes find older national team jerseys for under 200 baht. just be ready to haggle a bit

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
