@cafedandy thanks for the pictures!

What are your impressions of the Military blouson? How did the olive color look in person? I'm tempted between the black and olive one. In the picture, the zipper teeth looks like it's made of plastic. Can you confirm?

I have a bunch of military style jackets, but I'm a sucker for them. That blouson and curved chino pants are the only things that really stood out to me.

Update: I checked the display again for the Military blouson since I was near, the zip wasn’t metal as I initially thought, but plastic YKK Vislon. Still not that bad though

I want to update the slim +J suit I have but the dilemma is it will have the least use for me. But indeed looking forward to the shirt and belts.

For the +J suits, did they release lighter fabric for the spring/summer collection in the past? If that's the case, I might wait for that assuming they do have a spring/summer collection.

Yes they have, I'm actually thinking the same as well...

Has Uniqlo done a linen or seersucker suit that's a re-do of the Uniqlo U piece? I got the cord suit this F/W that's awesome, mainline but pretty much the Uniqlo U version with the fit and details. Was hoping they did a linen or seersucker one for S/S I can hunt down.

@Coldsnap Yes, brown, black, and blue I recall. Picked up the last two earlier this year. Corduroy would;ve been nice; I like how the spring collection had no vents.

@Coldsnap I bought all colors and use them a lot! (Went on deep deep discount so I took advantage) I even bought extra beater pants. I find it doesn't crease as badly as usual linen. It's a slightly looser fit, lower gorge lapel and no lining than usual U but I do recommend to go your usual size for an airy feel. AU store still has it I think, or our fave Yahoo! Japan Auctions

Damn! That does look cool. This has swayed me to put it on my buy list.

He also has another post of the stand collar white shirt and the chester coat.

I'm thinking we'll see more postings tomorrow from Asia side.

Still no size chart for the jacket
Im between a size medium and large
But since the jacket says oversized
Will go for a medium

Quite a nice article review even when read in Google translate. They did comparisons from past +J items and the key differences are the updated relaxed silhouette that isn't too trendy but for the current times, and the fine sewing techniques applied; also the genderless look compared to the totally defined men's and women's collections. All the price points have even remained the same from 9 years ago.

I vaguely remember +j sizing as slightly smaller than normal uniqlo sizing, at least in US. Can anyone give a more accurate estimate?
