Check the main page. It's limited to the relatively unattractive Heattech items for now. They are going to ship from Japan for these.

Who knows what the future will bring?

6 views 5 posts; I don't think I've ever had such a successful conversion rate.

Re: "Getting" Uniqlo: I haven't seen their price to quality/fit ratio anywhere else. They are basically cheaper than Target yet superb.

fit better than gap and worse than H&M and Zara (for me). When I tried it on in Japan, I couldn't wear Uniqlo even if I wanted to. The sleeves are too damn short

The made-for-U.S. market stuff is sized differently (bigger) than the made-for-Japan stuff, IIRC. I've only experienced the U.S. stuff, which I like a lot.

Great price, good quality, a nice variety of basics, designer collaboration.... all you need is a sense of style and you can put a nice outfit together without breaking the bank.

The underwear fits amazingly well, and my gf is a big fan. But it's something like 40% polyester. I can't imagine it'll be all too comfortable when the weather starts heating up next year.

That's because the items in Japan are designed for the Japanese consumer (i.e., slimmer and shorter). The American items are still pretty slim, but they're cut on the longer side, which is nice. Also, the Japanese stores (not sure about the NYC one) offer on-site alterations for free. At least they do on the jeans. Not sure about the jackets or shirts, but it's worth asking about if you're there.

Talk about a thread fail.

Conveyor belt fashion for the masses.

I feel that you do not understand the nature of creativity and art.
