The Uniqlo Thread

sorry if this has been talked about 100 times alreay, but do any of the +J jackets and pants match (color-wise) for a complete suit? which ones if yeah?

I'm looking at getting thenon-block tech Half Coat too...anybody get that/look at it in store?

Picked up the Reversible Down Jacket a couple weeks ago, wore it to NYC this thanksgiving and it kept me warm. The reversible side is water resistant as far as I can tell. Really nice details and an XS fits wonderfully for a 5'6" 130lb. asian male.

Last time, I also picked up a bunch of XS heattech vnecks and their super soft long sleeve vnecks. They both fit well and feel very nice. I can wear the heattech underneath the long sleeve with a jacket and stay pretty warm in Boston. Looks like that's going to be my uniform or whatever.

The hoodies also look, feel, and fit well (slim). But they are a bit expensive at $40. XS was a bit too small for me, so I went with S.

On Black Friday I copped a bunch of heattech thermals and socks, and more super soft long sleeve vnecks. 34th street was out of XS in black +J peacoats. XS seems hard to find in nice styles for +J. But I did pick up the +J Half Coat with removable vest and hood. It's pretty sweet in terms or material, details, and fit. I'm not sure how warm it will be, but I know it's warmer than the +J fishtail coat. I'll have a chance to test it out this week when it rains in Boston. Mm, and why do they make clothes out of materials that will deteriorate in 3 years? Is that typical for weatherproof jackets?

Also, 34th doesn't carry any Innovation Project, but I think that's because they're done with that line? Not sure. In fact a lot of employees I asked didn't know anything about it.

Anyway, just wish I could've been there longer for the merino sweater and oxford sale.

After further review, I feel like it's kinda too big on me. Iono. I'll still wear it tho.

What size/color did you get? Olive looks pretty dope, but not sure what it will actually look like (the +J sweater I got in olive is actually brown).

And how about warmth and weatherproof?

(thanks man)

Should I hang or fold my +J Wool Knit Shawl when not wearing it? Never owned something like this before.

and I'm still searching for that XS blouson, there was an XL on ebay

put it in a tauntan's belly. open with lightsaber. it's a ******* sweater

 

[Coldsnap]

well it's wool and a knit, thought that meant it cant be hung or it will stretch or something. I don't know!!

 

[AHShadow]



What color?

In Olive (which is actually brown right?).

Definitely don't hang it. I just fold it up along with the rest of my sweaters.

 

[Desi]

I never hang knits. Unless it was some weird sweater jacket fusion like that Marni x H&M coat.

word, thanks

I got beige in XS. It looks like beige.. a lil dark, a lil green. militaryish i guess. I remember seeing the olive in stores but, I'm sure it was pretty dark. Can't tell you if it looked brown or not :\

Warmth and weatherproof... It's actually unusually nice in Boston this week, so give me until mid next week to comment about that. It should rain and drop to lower 40s (F).

It looks like I wouldn't be able to make it up there until the 27th so I'm giving Suddenlee a try. Haven't used them before but I figure their chances now are better than mine in a week.

Just adding to the chorus here about Suddenlee - highly recommended. They found (almost) everything I ordered, sent me suggestions for alternatives for the two items that were sold out (they found the same style in different colors and similar styles in the same colors and got back to me within 15 mins or so each time I had questions), and it all shipped out within a couple hours of my last email to them about what I wanted. All bought on separate receipts to avoid sales tax, shipped to me overnight for 4% over cost. Ridiculous.

I hope they're not losing money on this. I do need to return a couple items but it seems like they have a reasonable process for that.

^ I don't understand why they do the separate receipts thing - it doesn't make a difference as the tax is determined on a per item basis, not the total amount

I think it's for ease of returning individual items if needed. Also, another positive experience here. Very responsive. Thumbs up.

Can anyone give thoughts on how the +J cashmere cardigans fit? Do they actually measure as stated on the website? 15" shoulders and 19" pit to pit seems quite tiny for a size small!
