Chatuchak weekend market is one of the best places to get those football shirts.
Just check my ayyuthaya page. I bought the shirt from that place.
Wish i had bought more!
Good luck!

impressively huuuge, you need some 6 hours to have a very rapid overview of it; much chinese cheap stuff, but also here and there some great thai things, such as fisherman pants, northern style summer shoes, thai pants for kids (they look mega cute in them!!!!), etc.The cheapest place I found in Thailand and where I could also bargain, a little!
norther hand made sort of "espadrilles", fisherman pants, thai wallets, scarves, thai silk ties, etc
150 BHT a silk tie
200 BHT fisherman pants
220BHT northern thai style espadrilles
60 BHT chilkdren thai pants Leave a Comment Theme: Women's ClothesDirections: Mo Chit Skytrain station

From your post, it sounds as if you are looking for knock-offs and not the real thing. If so you can buy them in many places, but I would try the Sunday Market first, the around the Petchaburi area or Chinatown. Those three places will have what you are looking for and probably in the quantity that you are looking for.
If however you are looking for the real thing then you will have to go to the department stores and they will be expensive. Since you don't state or show where you reside I can tell you that it will be considerably more than the price you would pay statside.
Good luck Theme: Children's ClothesDirections: Mo Chit Skytrain station

We suggest you get to Chatuchak at about 10.00 in the morning. It is open earlier but fewer stalls are open and you'll miss a lot unless you intend hanging around all day.
Don't get too concerned about trying to find a better deal at the next stall. You could end up not finding the same stall twice.
It gets very crowded by 2pm. The crowds can make it difficult to shop and to get around.
There is plenty to eat. Food is freshly cooked so dig in, but to be safe, go for fried noodle dishes or fried rice. Avoid sea food ( although you'd be very unlucky to get ill ).
Avoid crushed ice. If you want ice, make sure it's solid ice-cubes.
There are banks where you can exchange money but credit cards are accepted for more expensive items.
Shops can arrange for goods to be shipped home.
Many more photos at the website address given.
Depends on what you like and are after. Jewelry is always good as it Thai arts and crafts.
There are plenty of clothing shops as well as Thai silk products.
We like to get lighting, furniture and all our glasses, plates, bowels and so on. You can save a good deal of money on those items.
Less than department stores. The rest is down to your ability to bargain. Leave a Comment

Mother of all Bangkok markets, this one has acre after acre of crafts, pets, household goods etc. If you are in Bangkok for the weekend, this is where you will get your goods at their best prices. If you can't find it here, it probably doesn't exist. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Chatuchak Weekend Market
Chatuchak or Jatujak Weekend Market is located near to Mo Chit BTS Station. This is one of the largest weekend markets in the world. I like to be here every time i visit Bangkok.

Anything and everything is for sale at the Chatachuck weekend market. You can buy animals, art, antiques, food, games, toys, clothes. The place is vast and more than a little overwhelming.
I actually didn't end up buying much - but check out the video of the tea guy. He was a trip!
As much or little as you like. Some of the art negotiation 'asking' price start out at about 4 times what they'll actually take at the end. Theme: OtherDirections: Easiest thing to do is take the BTS Skytrain to Mo Chit station (end of the line)

Open every Saturday and Sunday, Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok is one of the biggest and most famous markets in the world. If bargain-hunting gives you an adrenalin rush, get ready for a head-spinning, earth-moving experience. Conquering this massive market is no easy feat though. The reward for taking a lot of patience along - together with a bottle of water - is that you can find pretty much anything here.
Firstly, to get a free map from one of the information kiosks and (try to) plan your adventure through the never-ending maze of crowded, narrow alleys that are, surprisingly, numbered. But, it's so big that even with a map you might find yourself going around in circles. Areas are also demarcated in colour zones with clothing and fashion items grouped together, a section for household goods, crafts, pets, art and collectables, plants, wholesale items, food, and everything in between. OR just follow your instincts and leave it all up to karma. Either way, it's virtually impossible to see it all in one day - and even more unlikely that you won't find something to get excited about.
If you are able to keep track of where you're going and can cover a big part of the market, you'll be amazed with the sheer variety of merchandise. From roosters and chopsticks to vinyl records and a pair of Levi hipsters that you haven't seen in shops for years. You can buy a python, beautiful orchids, garden furniture, and puppy. Or beads, fake antiques, the latest of Buddha Bar CD... The earlier you get there, the better too.
Open: 08:00 - 18:00 on weekends and Fridays (wholesale day). Plant shops are open Wednesdays and Thursdays too from 07:00 - 18:00. Theme: OtherDirections: Take BTS to Mo Chit st and exit down the right-hand stairs, follow the crowd for a 5minute walk, and you're there. OR take MRT to Chatuchak Park st, and follow the signage directives. For the plant and flower section, get off at Kampheng Phet st (exit 3).Website: http://www.jatujakguide.com
