Everytime I go shopping I get pissed/frustrated at the fact that nothing fits well (baggy/long), or everything's shit tier.

Even when I go shopping to the US' border cities all I see is mall/shit tier stuff, and when I try to buy online I can't buy shit because no-one ships outside the US.

How can I get nice clothes, basic, or whatever? Any online stores that ship internationally? Will I make it /fa/?

p.s: viva méxico, cabrones.

I'm checking out Topman for pants, what's your opinion on them? Where to get good basics online?

Vato, ¿Vas en prepa? Si es así. no te preocupes, aún te falta un semestre y medio. En las vacaciones de invierno y verano puedes armarte un buen armario tan sólo yendo al tianguis o a bazares. Nomás que ten calma, wey, va a tomar tiempo. Hoy encontre unas botas Dr Marten a 100 baros en el tianguis. Hay esperanza.

Por cierto, ¿De dónde eres?

Responderé en inglés por >>6909642 y para que los demás también entiendan.

Before going back to school I went shopping for the "sticky basics" (chinos, t-shirts, etc.) but nowadays I feel like my fits are pretty boring and basic. I would like to expand my wardrobe.

Whenever I go shopping I always find everything's too baggy or long (>tfw manlet), so I'm looking forward to find some online sites where they ship internationally.

Chamaco, it's Mexico, with just wearing a basic tee, converse and some 511s you are already above average when it comes to fashion. Stay to the basics until you develop a better taste for clothes. Also, Monterrey is a very big city with lots of bazares and it's almost impossible that you won't find something good in them. Don't worry, vato, at least you're not dressing like pic related.

Protips from another mexifag:

C&A, H&M, and Zara have some great fits.
You can find cheap quality leather here. Great for boots, satchels, or jackets if you're into that stuff. Try San Mateo or Oaxaca for it.

Also, stay away from mirrey-core.

>> No.6909767

>>6909669
Also, don't forget to have a tailor fix your shit.
Hem your pants, adjust the waist of jackets, making sure everything fits right boosts any clothesx100

There's no H&M where I live. I'd love to get some basic tees from there, but I don't know where else to get them. I can't go to the USA right now.

I might need some info. for tailoring. What's a decent price? What to tell the tailor? etc.

Costarricense reportándose. ¡Pura vida!

Join a package forwarding service. You get a mail address in the U.S. and all packages are forwarded to you in Mexico. That's how I get all my clothes. It's indispensable for me because the only remotely /fa/ store here is... Zara. And we know how their quality is. This way I've been able to shop anywhere and get some great pieces. Even ordered from U.K. and Australia without a problem.

>tfw stylin' on every pleb in Costa Rica

You have to know your measurements well though; if something doesn't fit, you're fucked because chances are you may not return it. This rarely happens to me, just check size charts and garment specifications beforehand; do some research on the brand's sizing if it's well known enough. I get great fits 95% of the time.

Like I said, you're given an address in the U.S. which belongs to the company. Use it as your shipping address when shopping online. The company receives your package, then they forward it to Mexico. You may pick it up at their office, if it isn't delivered to your doorstep; it depends on the company. Simple as fuck.

Hem the pants (adjust the length) = subir la bastilla (between 40-70 pesos) same for a jacket's sleeves. Any costurera from a tianguis can do that easily. For skillful repairs like adjusting waists or functional sleeves consider an actual cloth-making tailor.

>>6909797
I could lend you a hand for bazares if you're on the capital, else all I've got is malls. Lob or Banana Republic are allright stores too, albeit a tad expensive so waiting for sales is convenient.
