PROSPECTS

More Sophistication and Greater Exposure of Thai Men To Western and


Global Trends Through Digital Media Creates Higher Demand for A
Fashionable Wardrobe
While men’s jeans continues to be the most dynamic menswear category, men’s shirts, shorts
and trousers still account for the higher value sales. Thai men are becoming increasingly
sophisticated when it comes to their taste in clothing and this is reflected by increasing demand
for such diverse styles of international fashions (sports-inspired styles, of course, but also
Korean style and vintage style, for example). It helps shape the market to have more product
variety, largely because fashion-conscious men have greater exposure to global fashion trends
through online channels, especially social media. Digital technology means that many people
are now able to keep abreast of the latest Western and global fashion trends and the result is
that Thai men are not only becoming more interested in fashion but also increasingly selective
when purchasing new items for their wardrobes. Many are interested in visiting multibrand
apparel and footwear specialist retailers, where they can find a wide range of products in
different styles. The increasing interest of Thai men in fashion apparel is part of a general shift
towards more sophisticated consumer tastes, which extends to beauty and personal care,
personal accessories and other consumer goods industries. This is a trend which is expected to
help sustain healthy value growth for menswear over the forecast period.

Moo by Celebrity Designer Polpat Asavaprapha and Chinese Brand Hla


Jeans Generate Interest in Two Distinct Ways
At the same time as Thai men are increasingly fashion minded and selective, especially when
choosing formal and semi-formal clothing to wear for professional and social occasions,
teenagers and younger men in Thailand, like their female counterparts and many peers across
the globe, are highly into street fashion and sports-inspired clothing, much of which is unisex in
style. They also avidly follow fashion trends that are widely promoted and discussed on social
media and YouTube. Two new brands recently entered the Thai market to capitalise on this
trend. One of those is the Moo brand of menswear/unisex attire, which caused a commotion
when celebrity designer Polpat Asavaprapha introduced this – his first menswear and lifestyle
brand – at Central World’s Eden Zone in August 2019. Unlike his eponymous line of glamourous
women’s clothes, this collection is more relaxed, and thus aptly named after the concept of “moo
moo” – the Thai term for “easy and simple”. The collection features trendy camo shirts and

pants, vertically striped PJ shorts, pants and shirts, bold-striped hoodies and trunks, a variety of
seersucker attire and a host of other apparel and accessories such as tote bags and cross-body
bags.
The second recently arrived brand, the Chinese HLA Jeans brand, primarily appeals to a
teenage audience, but especially to those for whom pricier clothing is less accessible. The two
HLA Jeans stores, located at the at Central World and at Central Plaza Pinklao malls in
Bangkok, feature a wide variety of apparel (not only jeans), which a popular blogger on the
trueplookpanya website found to be not only very affordable, but of good quality, soft and
comfortable to wear. Both of these brands are expected to perform well in Thailand in coming
years.

Product Innovation Focuses on Moisture-wicking, Breathable, Quick-


drying Fabric That Is Most Suitable for Thailand’s Hot, Humid Climate
Product innovation focusing on fabric was very much in evidence in Thailand’s apparel market
in 2018, and menswear was no exception. Among the notable new fabric design innovations
came from the Arrow brand, in the form of Arrow No 5 Energy Saving Shirt. The shirt is notable
for requiring no ironing because the fabric and seams retain a smooth pressed look after
washing. The “no ironing required” shirt is certified by the Electricity Generating Authority of
Thailand (EGAT). Arrow was the first brand to have been certified by EGAT with its energy-
saving label. Arrow also launched its Max Move pants for men, featuring special moisture-
wicking, highly breathable, flexible fabric and tailoring to ensure maximum comfort in Thailand’s
hot and humid climate.
Uniqlo also introduced a line of menswear offering similar results, with fabric made using its
AIRism technology. This clothing line, which includes men’s polo shirts, hoodies, cardigans, T-
shirts and underwear, also features very lightweight, high-performing quick-drying material with
breathable layers that help release heat and moisture – always a plus given the country’s
climate.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Already A Popular Leader in Menswear, Uniqlo Invites Interest in 2019


by Promoting Its Line of Menswear Featuring Its Lightweight, Fast-
drying Airism Technology
Uniqlo maintained its leading position and increased its value share in menswear, where the
playing field continues to be highly fragmented. The Japan-based international fast fashion
retailer has been able to support its position ahead of a host of local and international players by
offering a wide range of menswear items including jeans, jackets and coats, tops and
underwear, among many others. Jeans and sportswear brands are the other leading
competitors, reflecting ongoing and increasing demand for both types of menswear. Uniqlo’s
simple, stylish and durable garments are very popular among Thai people, and in 2019 it invited
more interest by promoting its line of menswear featuring lightweight, quick-drying fabric made
with its AIRism technology. With 35 stores throughout the country and a growing online retailing
service, Uniqlo is well positioned to maintain or even improve its standing in menswear despite
pressure from other leading brands in Thailand.

Mc Jeans Introduces A Licensed Marvel Collection of Sports Fashions,


A New Mc Sneaker Jeans Collection and An “anti-mosquito” Shirt in
2019
In 2018-2019, Mc Group’s Mc Jeans brand, the third-ranked brand in menswear and the
leading domestic player in men’s jeans, collaborated with Warrix, the exclusive licensee and
distributor of apparel for the Thai national football team, to produce team apparel and with Walt
Disney Thailand to launch sports fashion apparel – notably a collection of officially licensed T-
shirts featuring 11 of the Marvel superheroes. It also introduced a new Mc Sneaker collection of
“Selvedge Walker” jeans over the year. The company further deployed a Customer Relationship
Management (CRM) system to enrol customers in its “MC Club” membership programme, which
entitles them to exclusive privileges at freestanding shops throughout Thailand. In addition, it
created a “Ship to Shop” service linking online and offline channels to create more capability for
seamless after-sale services at Mc Jeans’ freestanding shops. In menswear, the Mc Group
company also introduced an “Anti-Mosquito” shirt with innovative repellent fabric that
incorporates natural extracts from chrysanthemum, a new selection of 100% cotton minimalist
innerwear to the Thai market.
Jeans are the mainstays of the wardrobes of most Thai men and for this reason denim brands
like the domestic Mc Jeans and international brands such as Levi’s, Wrangler and Lee are
prominent among the leading names in menswear. While international brands such as Levi’s
and Calvin Klein are classified as super premium jeans in Thailand, Mc Jeans focuses on
economy jeans and standard jeans, which has supported strong demand among less affluent
consumers, especially those living outside of Bangkok. Due to its low prices, Mc Jeans’ volume
sales are estimated to surpass those of its international competitors, although its value sales are
still lower than Levi’s, for instance. The company has long targeted consumer segments such as
motorcyclists and families, although it is increasingly targeting teenagers and young adults.

Recently Opened Le Club Lacoste at Lacoste’s Flagship Store in


Bangkok Is the Only Lacoste Branded Store in Thailand and the Largest
Le Club in the World
Among other new developments within the menswear landscape, Lacoste introduced a
unique in-store experience in the form of the Le Club Lacoste (a concept and community “united
by style and spirits”) at its Lacoste flagship store at Central World, in Bangkok. It is the only
Lacoste branded store in Thailand as well as the largest Le Club in the world, comprising 500 sq
m in the heart of Bangkok. The store is fitted with a large Polo bar and its menswear collection
carries a wide range of colours and designs in several sizes, including Lacoste’s newly launched
Paris Polo Shirt, a newly designed version of its iconic, classic polo shirt. The shop also carries
apparel and accessories for women and children, including leather products, bags, belts, shoes,
perfume, watches, glasses and men’s underwear, so that the store can in effect offer one-stop
service. Lacoste Thailand also provides custom monogram embroidery service on Lacoste polo
shirts during special festive occasions in addition to its Surprise Delivery service to special
recipients of the specially monogramed polo shirts. The Lacoste collections are featured on the
website www.lacoste.co.th and on Facebook.
