The Uniqlo Thread

they put a hold on the amount but they don't charge it until they buy the item. BTW looking for the grey quilted down blazer thing in size small and the +J cashmere cardigans in wine in size small as well if anyone doesn't want them.

put an order on Friday, received shipping notification mail on Monday, package received on Thursday (I live in MN)

Just a tip, I'd skip the +J shawl collar cardigan if you're considering it.
It's nice until it pills, which starts occurring the moment you put it on.
I've never had a wool item pill so much.
When I raise my arms, it looks like I have some weird disease where my armpit hair extends down to my forearms

This sucks ; ; Cant you hit it with one of those pill cutters? The small that I had looked like it wouldn't pill at all but when my XS arrived I was like wtf, it had an extra layer of hair like all over it.

Does anybody know how slim these chinos fit? Do they fit like the Jcrew slims?

And the shirts fit tts right? and relatively slim?

I also will need a proxy pretty soon if somebody can hook me up

^ no those probably aren't as slim - they're a straight fit
they also don't use the same donut buttons like they used too..

yeah the knit shawl pills a lot - i've worn mine like only 4 times
as long it doesn't fall apart i'm ok with it - kinda works with the look

I have them from a couple seasons ago. Assuming they didn't change the fit the leg opening on a 32 is 9". I'd say the fit is similar to the 501 but is more fitted in the seat.

Thanks for the replies. Do you guys know if uniqlo sells chinos in slim fit any more?

 

[Eupfhoria]

if you ask me, the uniqlo vintage chinos fit better than jcrew's slim fit. I think the 9" leg that timbaland is talking about if from these, which actually aren't the same as far as I can tell.

and the U.v.c.'s are cheaper than jcrews chinos. just get a pair and see if you like them.

 

[kushburner]

Yea 9" is huge... Im looking for something with a 7.5-7.75" leg opening.

 

[Coldsnap]

I got a size small in the heavy gauge +J v neck in brown.. 5'7 160lbs hoping it fits well.

Update on the +J Half Coat http://shop.uniqlo.com/uk/goods/070485 (XS, beige):

In 35F nighttime weather, the insulated vest kept my midsection surprisingly warm with just a white t-shirt. However, there's no insulated sleeves, so my arms were really cold. Plus, the waterproof/nylon lining in the sleeves doesn't seem to retain heat that well, so it compounded the coldness :\

I wore the coat the next day in 45F, this time with a Soft Touch Long Sleeve V with a Heattech Long Sleeve V underneath. I was pretty warm, no complaints here. Held up against the wind very well, too. Couldn't feel a thing. I also like the way it fits now. I messed with the cinch cables on the sides and it fits nicely. I got compliments from two cute girls :3, saying that the coat looks masculine and structured, and does it right in contrast to a lot of men's coats (but wat do they kno). Just thot i'd include dat lil bit

A word on the heattech socks: these things are warm. They get warm, at least, as you walk around or just move your feet around. I like 'em.

Just picked up a pair of the grey flannel striped today. The fit is a bit roomy in the seat/butt but quickly tapers off in the thighs/legs. Leg opening on the 36 is about 7.5 inches. It's definitely a steal at 40.

The 34th st store got a pretty sizable restock in the +J section in the last day or so. Saw a bunch of items that weren't there on Weds. The employees say its the last stock of the season so get on it!
