Uniqlo pea coat

evac · Nov 4, 2014

Hey!

I was wondering if anyone had some experience with Uniqlo's wool-blend pea coat?
I've been looking at it online at it seems quite good for the price, but I do not live in a country where I can check it out for myself.
Does anyone know how the quality and look is (does the fabric look cheap)?
How does it fit? I'm about 182 and weigh about 87 kg. Got an athletic build and wear a medium in other brands.

i tried on the medium and it was quite comfy coz it has a thick fluffy quilted lining. However coz of the thick lining it doesn't have much room for layers. I have a medium peacoat from Muji and I could wear a blazer under it (not that I would though), or a thick sweater. I guess if you don't care about layering and just want one outer layer it's ok.

Did the wool fabric feel ok? Never bought anything from Uniqlo, so I'm a bit skeptical about the quality - heard great things about them, but for such great prices I get a bit unsure.
Did the coat look as good in real life as it does on the pictures on their website?

Well the thing is, I'm from a tropical country and my Muji peacoat is the first wool item I ever bought, so I'm not exactly a wool expert. It does look like what's shown in the website. With Uniqlo, more often than not the quality you get is more than what you're paying for (compared to other brands of similar price points), so if that's the maximum you can afford might as well get it.

How important is full vs half canvas to you for heavier sport jackets?

Definitely full canvas only

Half canvas is fine

Really don't care

Depends on fabric

Depends on price
