The Uniqlo Thread

I was pretty surprised that I was actually able to find a gray flannel double breasted jacket in XS today.
Some thoughts:
-very little shirt shows
-it has a single vent (this could be a deal killer - would've definitely preferred double)
-fit was good (I wear XS in the regular line's slim fit jackets)
I'm still deciding if I'm going to keep it.



Don't know about the trousers - small sizes usually run out the quickest. You'll be fine with the shirt though - plenty of shirts are still in stock.

Are the measurements for your double breasted blazer the same as on the website?

anyone doing a proxy? I just want a navy blue corduroy shirt.

Would you say the measurements on the Uniqlo website for the DB jacket are the same as yours?

Jeez, tried quoting about 3 times but it won't let me for some reason. Anonymouz, would you say that the DB jacket measurements on the Uniqlo website are accurate to yours?

Has anyone copped the +J Premium Down Parka?

^ Briefly tried one on at the store, but all the down stuff felt rather cheap and flimsy imo so I passed.

I need some flannel trousers in my life, but the tapered ones look so incredibly slim, and I haven't seen any pics of the regular ones.... I just need some everyday pants that won't look too weird on a 20 year old, advice? Size up tapered, or buy regular and tailor them?

Are they even nice in the first place?

They charge $250 for something cheap...good info, i was about to have my friend to buy one of those for me.

+J has been restocked at http://www.uniqlo.com/uk/ if you need a proxy, send a message!

Really?

The wool down parka feels like a quality down parka - not sure if you actually felt it. Considering its 90% down and 10% feather thats not bad considering some retailers charge the same for rubbish polyester-filled jackets and gilets.

IMO the down is of superior quality to the offerings in previous seasons, and I've worked at Uniqlo since +J launched.

This guy probably tried on the wrong stuff.

The regular line down jackets/parkas are flimsy and thin. The +J down parkas (which I've tried on) are nice and warm.

How are the sizing on the +J down parkas from this season? I'm thinking I'm a small at 5'10 135 but I heard some people buying XS outerwear even though they were bigger than me cause the sizing was whack.

Is the button stance on the +j blazers higher or lower than that on the tasmanian jacket?

Thank you for the info. I also checked out the UK site n those wool down parka are pretty much sold out in S,M,L. So I figure they must be some good quaility otherwise ppl won't jump on them. Or they just haven't restock that specific +J wool down parka yet. Btw, how's the sale on those wool down parka compare the past seasons down parka?
