The Uniqlo Thread

[boozwah]

The multiple styles on their website is confusing as hell. I heard that Uniqlo is changing websites real soon though, so I hope that's like priority on fixing.
Dunno, I just got a bunch of supimas in size medium and they seemed the same for me.. I think maybe most people wash / dry their supimas for a year then get a new pair in and think the size changed because it's not the same as their old one? The material is a bit lighter, but still soft.

That would be a very welcome change. I can see that they are different sku's but slightly renaming the products five different times makes no sense.

Cool. I have given up on finding the perfect expensive t-shirt and going back to stocking up on Uniqlo.

The packaged supimas were my staple for years then like three years ago I got more and it shrank 3 sizes in the wash so I just used them as rags and have never bought any again.

What is the best Uniqlo undershirt? Is it the packaged dry t-shirt that sells for $5.90? The other package of two t-shirts that is Supima look way too long like a dress and I only need the shirt untucked whenever I wear a long sleeve shirt over it.

Does the dry package t-shirt give off static being 40% poly?

I'm currently using the Airism short sleeve as a undershirt and though the feel is nice I hate the strong static when I take them off.

The $5.90 dry tees are my go-to.

No static, in my experience. They shrink a bit after wash/dry, but all good.

The dry tank tops are not bad undershirts too. All my basic tees are a mix of dry package, soft touch, and supima uniqlos.

Guess I'll be picking a few up this Monday.

Soft Touch shirts are too thick to be wearing under another shirt. I imagine it must be very cold where you live?

Not too cold. I'll wear them under a jacket during a freeze.

So is anyone bothering with Uniqlo U tonight?
At a loss for what to get, if anything. As usual, the women's stuff is miles ahead of the men's.
Wish there were more photos out there.

The Japanese site has more photos and descriptions with fabric compositions (oversized coat is 100% poly...).

I might try the jeans because of that loose tapered cut. There's also a cotton twill version coming out in March but it isn't listed on the US site.
Interestingly the parka design now uses "block tapey" instead of velcro.

It's all a little too precious/waify for myself.

That suede belt on their website is cool though. Hope it makes it to US

Oh man, that's disappointing, but not totally unexpected. I was planning on getting that coat if it was cotton or a blend; really not a fan of 100% poly.

I feel like Uniqlo U (the men's, at least), is too cautious. I get that it's mostly supposed to be basics, but it's all kind of boring.

 

[Coldsnap]

I agree. The Jim sander line was a much better complimentary line to standard Uniqlo. Dunno, will try some things maybe there will be a few surprises.

Any Torontonian's checking out the UU collection in the next few days? If so any chance someone could proxy a few pieces in Canada please?

Damn the womens side absolutely annihilates the mens. COME BACK JIL. Or even Uniqlo x Lemaire before rebranding
