I have a few. Shanxi Lu is the best, near Chandle Lu. There are a few around there.
Polos are about 140rmb. couldn't get them to budge much on that. |

Boxed Paul Smith shirts are for sale at the market behind the mall where the Jing'an Temple Metro station is. I paid 60rmb. And, refreshingly, there was no bargaining. Lots of stalls with prices clearly marked... |

Jing An bazaar closed as of 28 May 2008. The bulldozers were in the next day.
Qipu Lu perhaps? |

^ I've found the quality of the copies there to be pretty bad. Logos, stitching etc just look way off. |

Get the ones in the boxes. I bought exactly the same shirt from nanjing and the science and technology centre and they are exactly the same in quality. Would it be safe to say that if the material is the same, the maufacturer is the same? |
