I ordered two of the camp collar long sleeve UU rayon shirts on day of the drop, since then they seem to have been absolutely sold out. Did anyone here pick up colors other than white or brown/rust and want to share your impressions or real world pics? Iirc there was a green or blue that really intrigued me.

I tried on a white one in the thrift in a medium. Was a bit too big so left. I felt like the white was a little bit too sheer.

I just got the u crew t-shirts in. Love the fit. Was just wondering if there is a lot of shrinkage if they were to be thrown in the dryer?

@Coldsnap i've got this UU harrington, it's from last year collection. As good as a Baracuta G4 (same design without elastic waistband on the contrary to a G9) for a fraction of the price - had mine for cheap too.

Only one item that interests me in the JWA collection, the reversible cotton bomber.

Here are a few items that I stock up on at Uniqlo:

1) Pique polo shirts - these are great however they do shrink A LOT if thrown in the dryer

2) Sweatpants - pretty good and I like they are lightweight personally

The regular supima cotton t shirts don't really fit me. I'm 6'0 and they're ridiculously short. I have consigned them to night time wear and even then when I wake up middle of the night the shirt is like a tank top on me.

Dryers ruin clothes. Wash em then air dry them. It's not like a damn shirt is going to take two days to dry sheesh.

i'm 6'1/175lb and the M bomber fit me pretty spot on, but i personally found the sleeves to be crazy long. other than that it's pretty great for the price. the only JWA item i actually kept was the drawstring seersucker pants, mostly to be worn during flights.

Some people don't have the luxury of air drying.

the ironing is delicious etc.

I went yesterday to Uniqlo. I wanted to buy the JWA bomber but i didnt like the fit. So i finally bought a second UU fatigue jacket in another color. I really like this item and the price was reduced...
