I just got some when they were on sale and thought the quality was improved over recent years. Maybe not the same as Uniqlo from 13 but no complaints from me on the latest batch

Thanks. I just ordered new pink one for casual wear in Spring/Summer. I have my nice OCBD's with 3.5" collars for most occasions but these are great (or used to be, at least) for those extra casual days during the warm months.

So does anyone if there is gonna be a restock of any of the pieces or are they just gonna do the second half of the collection? That open collar long sleeve purple looks amazing and I want it so bad

I tried it in store I thought it was really good, really liked the tan one. More of a car coat length or peacoat. It’s not super long, was closer to mid thigh. You can kind of tell from the picture the model has his pants up pretty high.

anyone tried out the mainline Blocktech coat? Wondering if it could be a very budget version of a Nanamica coat. My blocktech parka is fairly breathable and water-resistant, but not sure about the draping of a longer version

Just depends on how you want to wear I guess, I’m an medium in some of their stuff but I liked how the large fit better just for extra layering.

Anyone else finding the armholes on the UU mockneck sweaters abnormally large? I took my usual size and they extend to nearly sternum height.

Fabrics are great for the $ tho

UU cotton sweater feeling great over an OCBD, no problems here. I recall the mock neck are a bit wider at the chest in same size.

Looked at everything uniqlo on the site and everything yawn inducing don't know how you foos are getting excited over basic ass sweaters and nylon jackets. Absolutely nothing interesting on there, uniqlo is a sinking design ship.

The cotton crew fabric is an interesting enough melange, is good for warmer temps or for layering, doesn't snag when my puppy misses a toy and hits my arm, and I wouldn't care if it snags on something.

Also the crew neck makes my trap's appearance go from large to Tom Hardy in Warrior hilariously large.

Tldr it serves a purpose and I appreciate it

While I didn't get the one in the link, I could not be happier with what I got. I've been wearing it everyday since I bought it. Fit is great and it is long enough.
