Just ordered the UU pleated wide-leg trousers on sale. I haven't really worn wide pants since middle school (ah, JNCO...), so it's probably best that I spend a little on these...

Extra small or small for the EGxUniqlo collarless coat?

I'm in the same dilemma, except I only got the small size. It seems too oversized and I'm 5'8", 165. In the website model pic I prefer the one where the sleeves are not rolled up but the small's sleeves are too long for me to do that. IMO the XS looks better.

Lol I can’t decide either but on the look book, the model is wearing it oversized and I Think the sleeves are meant to be rolled up.

I think both of them works. I’m 1.89 and around 83kg. Went with medium. Maybe it depends a bit on how you’re gonna wear it? I don’t know atm how I’m going to style it. Mostly lounging around in it at home now.

Lol. I asked EG guys and they say Small. Some of you guys and my friends/family say Xsmall. Looks like the larger size is going more for that slouchy EG fit whereas the XSmall seems to look more “normal”.

I checked out all the JW Anderson stuff in one of the bigger stores in Tokyo yesterday. Hmm. It's very variable. The coats look quite good, but it's hard to tell how they will wear over time. The shirts and accessories are completely generic. The fleeces, as someone else pointed out, just look like earlier UU collaborations reheated. The sweaters are generally thin and unimpressive except for the crewneck sweater which is a good design even though the wool is a bit scratchy: the mustard one in particular looks great. For me, the best things by far were the drawstring cord pants: the cord is relatively thick, they have a good cut, and the drawstrings add something a little quirky. That's clearly a popular view as they had already sold out of the brown in all sizes except small.

Took advantage of a friend visiting me and asked to purchase some additional U items (which I did say I will buy on sale but I'm concerned with sizing availability so...)

U Broadcloth Shirt in Navy - this one has a nice shade of navy. I already have the off-white and I think this may be the best version of this shirt with the gloss and softness of the fabric. Still great after a wash.

U Wide Fit Pleated Tapered Pants - Usually these pants sit high on my waist TTS but got a size up on this one so it now sits lower. I think the pleats may be more pronounced in this one. Still getting used to the wideness.

(Also behind me is the JWA 2 Way Reversible Bag - The only one that interested me in the JWA collab, it's a nice roomy bag to fit a laptop and such, and good if you're looking for something similar to a Military Helmet Bag (Porter makes a better version imo). )

Women's U Cotton Oversized Shirt - Got inspired by some Japanese and Korean guys on IG who style it nicely and took a chance with it. I'm usually an M-L, so I took this one in L and still so wide and massive (swimming in it) - you may want to take your usual size but the sleeve length will be shorter and just wear it rolled up. May not be for everyone, but it's nice to experiment from time to time.

U Straight Pants - Really enjoying this pair. And it does have nicer denim fabric, even if it's thin.
