The Uniqlo Thread

[dfagdfsh]

also, fwiw, i could probably buy some real undercover **** but it never has fit me right. uniqlo is a good alternative that gets at the aesthetic (although more boringly than mainline) with a fit that works for white people.

Personally, buying the hidden placket oxfords would be buying cheap **** because it's cheap. Don't like the pocket on it and buying would be settling.

it's not that i 'want' cheap ****, it's that 'i have no choice but to buy' cheap ****. what you're really saying is 'why would you buy uniqlo instead of xyz?' and the answer is two-fold: yes cost is important, but i also objectively prefer the uniqlo aesthetic to a lot of other brands. i bought the uu **** becuase i like it, and i probably would've bought it at full price too.

Eh as I said man (like three times now) if you like it then go for gold, but I think most people are just kopping because its cheap (first sale BOOM everyone orders)

Also, be honest, you wouldnt have bought it unless on sale, otherwise why wait? Its been out for awhile lol

IDC anymore, this is practically the 'New J Crew Thread' IMHO

am i cheap too Razele?
I want to get my hands on your closet but the last time I looked through your B/S, everything was at least 1-2 sizes too big.
i think Teger makes only 1 good point is that you need to be more objective when shopping around.
after i posted that photo of the easy jacket i bet 10+ people decided to buy it lol
hype <=> marketing.

Nah man, Its people who have gone nuts over this stuff because its on sale.

I dont really care if people are cheap, there is good cheap and bad cheap as Fuuma has said.

UU seems really really really sterile to me, I dont feel anything when I look at it lol, the original marketing campaign probably didnt help (the whole family thing was the worst)

Its pretty easy to do good cheap, with Uniqlo (Hate UU, Love Uniqlo) and CoS ATM, also B&S (SuFu / SZ / SF) is a goldmine of easy kops. Also people just kop a mountain of clothes, honestly your better off having less then more. Some really really nice wardrobes Ive seen have been nice pieces picked out and worked together, not necessarily large wardrobes though just well curated.

Also I need to clarify, I hate UU, I love Uniqlo. The mainline stuff is as good as ever (I will probably buy like 4 pairs of jeans when I go to UK on my honeymoon, also will get a bunch of the oxfords too)

Linen shirts, worth it? Any noticeable difference between the regular ones and the slim-fit with hidden placket? (Except for the fact that it is slim-fit and has a hidden placket...

)

Any fit-pics or close-ups?

 

[Razele]

Anyway the mob has spoken and Ive had my piece so Ill leave you all be

Hopefully a few people listened (P.M me if you want to discuss further)

So uhh...is the UU stuff (or anything else) still on sale and if so where can I find the prices?

 

[Coldsnap]

I said since UU launch that I was interested in the athletics and I would make some purchases on sale. I like all the items I got, the easy jacket arm pits need to be taken up a bit and I should have gotten a small in the cropped pants.

the notification in store said the promotion is btw 9th-15th, so I guess 2 weeks later?

Side note - Razele, i'd love to get tips on how to make my wardrobe smaller for someone who hasn't necessarily found a style yet. It kinda sucks just blowing money on clothing I like cause i kind of like everything to be honest (as well as stuff i later find does not really work for me - or the whole wardrobe as a whole) -- and am stuck in the game there i buy **** and then put it on B&S to fund other ****.

buy fewer clothes, get rid of most of the ones you have

ahh figures, but i just wish there was a shortcut for finding out a particular style that works for me or that I like enough not to want to dwell into another style. Basically I want to be gdl except i am broke...

 

[mumbai]

its not that im tripping or anything but when you guys ordered before 3 est on weekends, did you guys still get confirmation that they got your stuff or they send that on monday?

oh and does CoS stand for anything or its just CoS?
