The Uniqlo Thread

[Snoopy]



Speaking of airism boxer briefs, do you guys cut off the tags? I cut off the tags and on one of them, the back where the tag used to be became itchy and irritating as hell, to the point where I don't even wear that pair anymore. Any fixes or ways to prevent this?

Did you use a seam ripper? I leave my tags on but sometimes I get a slight poke. I might remove them now that you mention it. I removed much of the tags on other Uniqlo clothing with a seam ripper. Just have to be careful and take your time.

with all their heattech stuff it's warmer with something over it. worn alone I didn't think it did much at all

One reviewer said he wore them outside with nothing over them and he was cold. What an idiot lol Ain't no $20 cheap item from Uniqlo gonna give someone an abundant amount of heat.

Saw the SS17 flight jacket and it's the same material used on their mountain parkas.

Worth it at $20. $50? Not so much.

wish they'd just make a bomber with the same thick nylon they used on the women's version. the qlomaire version is a little too streamlined for my taste.

$15 flannel sale was "off the hook"(?) -- just wish I knew why they abandoned all the great patterns from years past.

I still have brand new in the manufacturer bags 3 Uniqlo camo flannels I think from 2yrs ago. A dark green, black and navy. Beautiful shirts. Good quality too I found these slightly thicker than the usual Uniqlo flannel they have in tons of colors. Been saving them for a special occasion. I just have so many new stuff I haven't bothered to wear.

Re: the extra warm, I'm not a big fan of the smooth and silkiness, feels sort of like pantyhose on my body. The ultra is totally different, cotton-like and real plush with a nice texture which I prefer. I gave it another chance today and it's grown on me, not that warm by itself which is how I was wearing it before. However, under a fleece it's like an oven which is what I wanted. Still may get some merino though been reading smart wool ain't as good as it used to be so I'll probably try out some duckworths.

icebreakers. I wear those daily, never been cold and I live in northern maine. And they're antibacterial so you only have to wash like once a month tops. I literally live in them. Pricey but worth it.

Just a headsup for the Uniqlo U lovers in here. Uniqlo U stuff are now on final clearance prices here in Singapore. http://www.uniqlo.com/sg/store/men/collections/uniqlo-u.html

Not many sizes left, but for those lucky enough and interested, drop me a PM or hit me up on Whatsapp at +65 9759 2391 if u need a proxy.

Cheers.

the australian webstore apparently has two different models/codes of the slim 'flat front' chinos (i wear them to work), even though the pictures/measurements are exactly the same online. one seems to be slightly thicker in material and also has a way longer inseam, even though it's supposedly only 34".

i echo the flannel comments - a M fits me perfectly, but the patterns for the last 2 years or so have been mostly disappointing.

I want to know where I can get these pants.

Just wanted to make a quick comment about the block tech parka (non U) version.

The hood on this is terrible especially if it's raining and windy which is almost always the case. It's been blow off almost any time the wind blows into the hood because it's so flimsy. The jacket does protect me from the rain but I find the hood almost unusable which is frustrating

Not all the slim fit chinos are the same. I've found two different models. One has a higher spandex content and feels less like cotton with give and more like workout type pants. I think they're the dark grey ones? I could be wrong but the also felt like they had a longer rise. I remember fitting on dark grey ones and then noticed 2-3 colors all piled together with the others that were different. Not sure if it's a different season, or cut, or what, but just a note.

 

[JilSlander]

I like the slim fit chinos with the 3% stretch. Wish they made this colorway a darker gray/charcoal --

this is what i was referring to:

and
http://www.uniqlo.com/au/store/men-slim-fit-chino-flat-front-pants-1727370044.html

both have the exact same measurements and material composition, however they have different sku codes and are different material in person (as mentioned).

Have you tried tightening the hood with the draw cords and locks?

Still not the best hood, but that solved the problem for me. Keeps me dry in the rain and doesn't flop off in the wind.
