I am sure you have looked @ the UK website. Just go off those measurements. They are the same as US, but US website does not list it as detailed.

Ok I need some uniqlo sizing advice
I have unfortunately never bought from uniqlo and the closest one to me is a bit of a drive (4 hours?) so here's what I've got
For shirts:
42 inch chest (may be increasing soon)
36 inch waist
14 inch arm measurement
I wear a medium in Jcrew, gap, and a large in APC
Idk if id be a large or an XL
For pants
37 inches at my natural hips
24 inch thighs
33 inch inseam
I wear a 33 in APC new standards which are sized down three usually
I wear a 38 in epaulet smith jeans or whatever they are called
I usually wear a 36-38 in most other brands
Im guessing here I would need XL everything?
For most things I don't mind them being oversized, rather this than too tight. I pull off the slouchy look pretty well

We're about the same chest size. a large in the shirts would provide a good comfortable fit. Sorry, can't help on the pants. Your measurements and sizing on the pants is kinda strange (jeans bigger than waist), but I'd try a 36 in those. The pants are pretty tts if not slightly bigger than tts

Just wondering since the uniqlo site always portrays the actual colours off: the cashmere sweaters come in many colours, which ones are "speckled" and which ones are solid colours? I find the speckled colours really appealing, but it NEVER shows on the pictures in the site.

maroon lambswool is sort of speckled, looks nice ... navy and off white are not

Similar measurements to me. I take a large in their shirts and knitwear (although oddly I had to go up to XL in waistcoats) and either a 36 or XL bottom.

speckled-ish
lambswool cardigans:
06 gray
36 brown
68 blue - pretty nice... keeps getting sold out/low in stock
lambswool crew/v-neck:
wine
cashmere:
purple
there's also the heavy gauge shawl stuff..brown and gray


mostly interested in that nice deep forest green for the cashmere and the grey colour. Hows it like in real life?

so is pretty much all the +J stuff gone now? I was thinking of copping the duffle and light down parka, which are pretty cheap. also how is the sizing? I tried on a 36" peacoat from H+M once and it fit pretty well, would an XS or S fit similarly (or a little smaller)?

I got the slim fit size M jacket, but you may need a size small if you usually wear size XS.
They are nice, not 100% wool -- 98% wool with 2% elastane. I got the navy and grey...dark gray is nice. You can definitely till the difference by feel between the +J flannel (100% wool suits vs Tasmanian)
I personally like more trousers just for work worn with a EFM wool or lambswool sweater and OCBD.
get your cop on!

Do you have any fit pics of the navy tasmanian slim fit blazer?
