The Uniqlo Thread

there's no center seam on my premium cotton v necks?

i’m talking about the new ones for this spring. i have some of the old ones with the center seam too. unless the pics on their website are wrong, the ones for this spring don’t have it anymore.

The F/W premium cotton tees had a center seam, like the UU tees did.
The S/S premium cotton tees preceding those (from year ago) did not have a center seam. They are also slim fit.

hmm, i think you might be wrong on both counts. afaik, uniqlo didn't have any premium cotton t-shirts for f/w. they had the undershirt version, but that doesn't really count. maybe they had them in-store, but i never saw them online and i checked more than a few times. the ones for last spring/summer DID have the center seam. i have some of them. this all assumes you live in the u.s. if you live in europe (or asia maybe), you have completely different t-shirts. i bought t-shirts in london and paris over the summer, and both the premium and normal cotton t-shirts from the nyc stores were different.

Those are gonna be huge on you, I just ordered a bunch in M and they're a tad big (i'm a 50) but will be perfect after a wash/dry cycle or two.

i hope you're wrong. measurements on their website suggest they fit pretty slim - especially in the shoulder, which i'm most concerned about. i'm now assuming they're inaccurate, though. oh well, can always exchange.

I still don't know what ******* tees you guys are talking about or whether or not mine are considered underwear but I've bought like 8 packs of them in the past few years. They run big and I wear xl.

They're not perfect but they're a good everyday shirt

The restocks are shorter than the ones I bought a few months ago; too short to wear, even sized up. If they were a few inches longer, and maybe a little slimmer, they'd be perfect beater shirts.

Hm. I just put on the one I washed last weekend and it hits about an inch below the belt; I could use a little more length but they're fine for $5 and better than any other shirt in that price range (i.e. Everlane).

An extra inch length and a deeper V and I wouldn't need any other t-shirts.

Just tried on the cordlane jacket.
It's pretty dope.
That is all.

Anybody try on the trench coat? Thoughts on sizing and construction?

It's been a while since I've looked through Uniqlo's website. I'm digging this new addition:

Too bad it's sold out in small. I need something for the occasional days it rains in SoCal.

 

[Coldsnap]

The stripe one looks pretty cool

I said I was done with Uniqlo outterwear.. but I sorta need something for rainy days...

You guys

It's literally made out of shirting material (not even oxford thickness, like the same stuff as the rest of the SS print shirts)

and therefore useless for rain or as anything besides a very lightweight windbreaker

 

[Coldsnap]

eww, thanks for the report

Sounds okay for summer evenings at the beach. Sold out in Large in the UK though, otherwise I might have been tempted...

So what's the consensus on US sizing vs Japanese sizing?
I have a M in a classic fit OCBD from Japan
and I'm wondering what the equivalent would be from the online US store. Thanks

 

[andrewsd]

japan m = us s

[nineohtoo]
