@gettoasty it did, not much maybe an inch? But the shrink put it at a better length for me at 5'7". They are cool pants, can be worn a ton of ways. I can see them fitting into a MC type fit when a tad slimmer, I like long rises for a tucked in shirt. Me I'm going to try and fit them with some of my Our Legacy / Patagonia stuff and Birkenstock.. I can't deal with restricting pants anymore, my straight fit pants still even drive me nuts.

Unrelated, but random luck found a new Uniqlo U Harrington in that nice brown color at the thrift for $6. Wore it the next day and its got a few cool details i wasn't expecting at the price point. Something I've wanted but wasn't bothered to buy, and now seems long sold out (momotaros in picture not the uniqlo u jawnz).

Anyone got the scoop on this JWA blazer? It's 60% polyester, 40% cotton and I'm not sure what to make of that as the pants are 100% cotton.

...

My second alternative was the chambray blazer and matching long pants but the pants are listed as seersucker and I'm not sure if there's too much of a difference between the two?

I think you may be misreading the website. I think the pants in seersucker are 60/40, and the chambray are 100% cotton. From "Materials & Care":

[67Blue] 100% Cotton, Exclusive of Ornamentation [Other Color] 60% Polyester, 40% Cotton, Exclusive of Ornamentation

How long you been shopping uniqlo? You should realize by now this is their business model, nothing ever gets restocked online past halfway through the season.

I am shopping at the store more now actually. I am still particular about the basics. I think the Uniqlo U collab this season for example was pretty good (just fit me right).

Was not aware they did band collar shirts though so have to stake it out next season.

Linen wrinkles naturally whichever brand you get it from, it's just a matter of which one wrinkles "nicely".

Anyone had good success with the email notification for items back in stock? I feel like it is slow system setup as sometimes I will get an email and when going to the website item is sold already.

I have had much better success just checking periodically. Picked up those tapered, pleated Uniqlo U chinos finally in my size this morning when browsing on the phone. On that note, sometimes I think the stock is different when perusing the app on the phone. I suggest trying to browse both the website and app if you are looking for something particular. Received an order confirmation immediately FWIW.

Woah — they’re finally selling some ‘regular fit’ oxfords. Can anyone comment on what those are like? Like...fit-wise?

Anyone buy the JWA pocketable parka in color block? I'm undecided at getting at full price but they are almost sold out here. It's very lightweight.

Uniqlo Japan got a lot of stock on UU stuff? Looks like they haven't even gotten to sale yet. Just wondering if anything will be in stock when I'm there in 3 weeks.
