Jim Thompson is a well-known Thai textile brand, with several branches throughout the country. Thompson, an American businessman who mysteriously disappeared in the Malaysian highlands in 1967, almost singlehandedly resurrected the Thai silk industry after World War II. His legacy, in the form of colourful and high-end silk shops and boutiques, is a must-visit when you're in Thailand.
A Jim Thompson outlet is located in Central Phuket Floresta. It occupies a large air-conditioned shop on the first floor, with attractive window displays and well-spaced cabinets. There are some others around the island, including one in Jungceylon in Patong and another at the airport, but the Central branch is the biggest.
