I saw this over on the other SF and wanted to post it over here to see what reactions it would get.

Holy mary mother of god, if cloak is really doing this, it better be sold over at the other stores too. What is your take on this, rumor or could it happen?

In DNR (Monday, October 23 page 1) Plokhov (Cloak designer) discusses what he made for Uniglo. It's not a rumor.


To quote the article,
"Ploknov's designs include a water-repellent windbreaker, pique polo shirt, jean, cotton twill trousers and shorts. "Everything is whisper-weight, and I've tried to give everything a directional twist." said Plokhov""
Plokhov also says (from article),
"The polo has a gusset at the neck opening, and the shorts have cargo details, and everything is in black or gray, with bursts of white. I've given everything my stamp"
