I guess the same place Korean girls go shopping, korean chicks often wear mens clothes from what I've seen.... things like men's golf khakis and sweaters, etc....

I'm just browsing on YesStyle, and how do the sizes translate? The smallest size is a medium on there, but does that translate to a small here?

More or less, but at the same time you have to understand that the 'cuts' of the clothing are different. "Small" slim fit in Asian is like XS here. The shoulder width, length of shirt..etc are all slightly different, most of the time.

I don't believe they do, I've never seen that in and Kdrama I've seen, ever. o_O So I dunno where you saw that. The school uniforms shown in series that take place in like 70-80s use these hats:

Well, the first time I saw it in a korean movie was probably 6 years ago from the movie "Chingu" which means "friends" in korean. and Jang Dong Gun was a school boy there so I guess it was how they dressed in the 70's-80's so I guess you're right...I am looking for a similar hat like that but more of today's style of fashion.

if you want korean influenced style clothing, there is Zipia.net .. is like a wholesale store (min. $300 purchase)... sizes are usually "one size" and fit the really asian guys (your tipical honger built and height)

If you want the staple korean guy look? Get a boston redsox cap, a baggy GAP or Hollister sweater (the brighter the colour the better), slim fit black jeans or gray baggy sweats, and either a pair of slippers that your dad would wear, or a pair of high top glossy sneakers.

korean online clothing sites have it for sure..

but if your looking to get one locally.. u prob need to look around downtown, holt renfrew, le chateu, j2 etc etc.
but the hats that are sold here are made for white guys so sometimes it doesn't suit asian face well

Zipia.net is good site, the prices are cheap and shipping isn't that pricey too. I ordered clothes from them last month and a few years ago. Shipping is also very fast, you usually get your items within a week.

+ 1. Many guys think they can replicate that model's style with those hat.. usually fails...

zipia.net is good if you want clothes that will wear out in a week

Hey guys
have any of you here ordered pants from zipia.net before? The sizes seem rather skeptical to me... I'm usually a 31 here and according to the website that's a medium. From personal experiences, korean designed pants usually fit very small, and medium seems a little small. I'd really appreciate it if someone could give me some advice. Thanks.

i think yesstyle.com has a lot of korean fashion, but mostly its not about where they get their clothes, its how they dress and the way they mix and match clothing together.

True, but some things on Zipia seem to just be knockoffs and doesn't look anything like the picture.

Cheapest + Largest selection is Gmarket. =]

and also... hows the quality of the shoes sold on zipia?

Also take into account the models proportions... as much as you want the style, can you rock it well?

The dude in the hat is probably about 5'11 + and has a decent physique. A lot of these new breed Korean guys are damn tall and well-built... quite infuriating actually. A friend of mine did a brief modeling stint in Korea awhile back... he's about 6'2, barely works out and somehow manages to be pretty buff. Sucks when I have to slave at the gym to look decent.

Anyway, a lot of things don't translate well to guys who are on the shorter side, or have shorter lower bodies... or who border on the more muscular side... or are way too skinny.

Pick and choose, good luck!

yesstyle or zipia, both really good. However, yesstyle did take quite a while for it to ship.
