Tassanee Second-hand clothing
Tucked away in the laid-back town of Pai in Mae Hong Son province, this second-hand clothing shop has earned a devoted following among travellers and locals alike. The store specialises in pre-loved and vintage garments, with stock that visitors consistently describe as thoughtfully handpicked, well-maintained, and surprisingly stylish — the kind of selection that rewards a proper browse rather than a quick scan.
The atmosphere is a large part of the appeal. The owner, known to regulars as Gift (also referred to as Tassanee), is praised across reviews for her genuine warmth and the way she makes shoppers feel immediately at ease. The shop is well-organised, which makes working through the wide variety of clothing far easier than a typical second-hand store. Prices are considered reasonable, and the range spans casual wear through to higher-quality and vintage pieces.
For practical purposes, exact opening hours are not listed online, so it is worth stopping by or asking locally before making a dedicated trip. The shop is located in the Wiang Tai area of Pai District, and given that Pai itself is a small, walkable town, it fits naturally into a day spent exploring the local markets and independent stores. Those travelling with limited luggage space should plan accordingly — past visitors have found it difficult to leave empty-handed.

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.
