Collectors Store
Tucked along Wiang Kaew Road in the Sripoom area of Chiang Mai, this vintage clothing store draws in shoppers with a carefully curated selection of second-hand and retro pieces. It has built a reputation among vintage enthusiasts for stocking recognisable labels including Ralph Lauren, Nike, Patagonia, Carhartt, Tommy Hilfiger, and Adidas, as well as 90s graphic tees and boho-style pieces for those willing to browse.
The shop carries both men's and women's clothing, with visitors noting the well-organised layout and the quality of the stock on offer. Prices sit on the higher end for Chiang Mai's vintage scene, though some shoppers have put together full outfits for around 24 USD. It is worth noting that a small number of visitors have raised concerns about the authenticity of certain branded items, so those shopping specifically for genuine vintage labels may want to inspect pieces carefully before purchasing.
Opening hours vary slightly across the week, with the shop opening later on Tuesdays at noon and earlier on weekends from 10:30am, closing at 7:30pm most days. Following the store on Instagram at collectors.vtg before visiting is a practical way to get a sense of current stock and the overall aesthetic.

Hands down the best vintage clothing store I've hit in Chiang Mai. If you're seeking Polo, Hilfiger, Nike, Adidas, 90s graphic tees etc, don't bother going anywhere else - quality stock, some proper gems in here and all pieces at fair market value prices or better.. not taxing like other stores 🔥 👍🏼
Great collection especially for men’s clothing. They have brands like RL, Nike, Patagonia and Carhartt. Can recommend!
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a nice little shop with some good pieces BUT as already pointed out by another customer I can still confirm that A LOT of the items here are clearly FAKE!!! Some pieces are more obvious fakes than others but after asking the employees about the authenticity of a clearly fake Heron Preston x Bape sweatpants for example, he just replied with “I think it’s original”, justifying the high price tag. I am a big fan of the thrift stores and thrift culture in Chang Mai but as this store’s clothes are mostly fake “branded” clothes with quite the high markup I strongly recommend shopping elsewhere. Ironically they call themselves “Collectors store” which kinda implies that their goods are authentic, which clearly isn’t the case! Sorry :/

Tips for Visiting Markets & Shopping
Haggle at Markets, Not Malls
Prices at market stalls are negotiable — start at 50–60% of the asking price and meet in the middle. Fixed-price shops and malls don't haggle. Smile and keep it friendly; aggressive bargaining is considered rude.
Arrive Early or Late
Vendors believe the first sale of the day is lucky — you'll often get a better deal if you arrive right when the market opens. Late in the evening, sellers may also discount to avoid packing unsold goods.
Be Cautious with Tailors
Bangkok has excellent tailors, but also many tourist traps. Avoid anyone offering suspiciously cheap suits or who approaches you on the street. Ask your hotel for recommendations, read reviews, and always get two fittings.
