Western Sized Clothing

Been in Hanoi a while now... but have still not found a huge range of western sized clothes or shoes, apart from tailored boutiques & Things of Substance. I am a US size 6-8...any help appreciated.

The 2 factories that seem to have export clothes are on Minh Khai street. Mostly shirts and pants and jackets. Go east from 226 Minh Khai and keep your eyes open for big shops.
If you have something to copy there is a seamstress on Hang Bai (49 ??) Named Tuyet. She does a lot of stuff for teachers and volunteers although she doesn't speak English. The big problem seems to be the quality of material. Don't cheap out. The garments will fray or sag. Take someone to the markets who knows the quality of materials.

Also try the department store on Ba Trieu just south of Hai Ba Trung on the east side of the street. It's the one with underground parking. They usually have a ngoui lon rack (big people) The clothes are still not the largets but you may be luckey.

that dept store on Ba Trieu is called Vinatex. I'll second that opinion - great place for large mens shirts, and all kinds of other stuff.
