you're definitely wrong bro. Uniform truly epitomize the elevated basics approach and they are second to none in this space. They create their own fabrics further separating themselves from tons of other brands offering basics. The newest twisted supima is some of the best material ive ever felt, and that comes after the twisted tri blend, which is right up there as well
Name me one company doing what they are doing, using the materials they do, at the price points they offer these premium pieces for
if copying a company is defined by selling premium basics such as tees, sweats, and hoodies, the whole streetwear industry is in trouble. Uniform is a leader in this space to boot
This past year alone, JE has released black waxed denim and a shoe that looks eerily similar to converse. Their edition one runner can easily be mistaken for another brand, and their chelsea boots look identical to boots released by several separate companies. Im not calling JE a copier, but you're out to lunch in pointing your finger at uniform, of all companies
On another note, I received the rubbers in. Really impressed by how they fit more like carbons vs obsidians. Very comfortable. In comparison to other waxed denim I have, they fall short of the treatment in my opinion. Saint laurent's waxed denim has a regular denim feeling hand, almost like its woven into the fabric somehow, alongside some baked in creases. Where the rubbers feel more like the treatment is on the surface layer only, sticking to everything and attracting lint way more than comparable waxed offerings. Out of the bag, they also look more like leather vs waxed denim just due to no creasing for what thats worth
all in all, they look dope and are a solid effort. On sale, they came in just under the saint Laurent joints which is a plus. With higher price points come higher expectations

Agree 100%. Go buy a UniformLA t-shirt, their new fabric is the GOAT.
I dont get the hate, more quality options for us to buy is a good thing.
