Order just came in. Keeping the mock-neck tee and chinos, which are in a really rich navy. I could've sized down on the pants –– I've lost some weight recently –– but the waist button tabs are a nice touch and they hold up fine with a belt. Could also probably get them hemmed, but one detail I hadn't noticed before is that they have a contrasting selvedge line that adds a little pop of color when cuffed. They're very comfortable and stretchy, but I'm not really getting where the "curved" part comes in –– they're too slim-fitting for the silhouette to look exaggerated like they do on the site when worn, at least if you have tree-trunk legs like me. I really don't get why there aren't more model shots with the products on.

Like others, I'm less sure about the oversized shirts. I like them a lot in theory but I feel like the material is maybe too stiff and crinkly for this look, so it doesn't really drape but is just kind of boxy if you go TTS. I like the button-down collar one more than the stand-collar one, for what it's worth. Some low-quality fit pics I quickly threw together:

I managed to get a herringbone blazer, sized down to a small, and it is still huge. Shirting is also a size too large.
I do not find the chinos to be slim; went with my normal size, 32, could have gone down at least one size, and they are very long (34 inches, I believe). The quality of the blazer and chinos is very high. I would like to see the wool pants, as they are probably very nice.
Question: has anybody tried the hybrid oversized parka? I ordered a small (normally a small or medium) but I am thinking it might be too big, and I have a chance to get an XS. Thanks for your help.

I also went with small (US) in most of my my orders. I'm a medium in most other brands, but small for most Uniqlo tops. The only time I wish i got XS was the UU blocktech fishtail parka. I ordered the hybrid oversized parka in S so hope it fits because I doubt I'll find it in XS at this point (maybe if I head over to NYC 34th st there might be stock).

Collection looks sick, really keen on trying the blazers and chinos when they are released here in Singapore on the 20th.

From a close friend who works at Uniqlo's parent company here, there is going to be full size runs of the outerwear as usual. Which really blows my mind seeing how there is almost 0 demand in a tropical country.

As usual, for those that missed out on this sold out collection in their home country and absolutely NEED some stuff, dm me and i'll see if i can help with a proxy.

Might get a restock or a return, but I went to 5th/34th/Soho locations yesterday afternoon and they were all out of the Parka in any size under L.

From watching product reviews of the parka, it seems like the XS should be okay but no way to tell until it arrives.

Not sure if this helps. I'm wearing the size small for the parka below. Under it, I'm wearing the +J stand collar oversized shirt (size small) and the UU wide fit tapered pants (size medium).

I'm between small and medium for Uniqlo stuff, but I usually go medium. For reference, I'm 5ft 8in and weight 135lbs. I ended up going with a medium cause I want a more oversized fit. There wasn't that much of a difference between the small and medium other than 2-3cm more for both length and width.

damn i'm the same height as you and about 20 pounds heavier, I don't think I'll be able to do xs looking at these fits

and I definitely like the medium on you better
