I've been shopping on Savile Row for almost forty years and I've never heard of this uniglo. Somehow I've missed it.

It is a more upmarket version of Primark...

the store was about a 15 min walk away from the row. if you shopped at savile row for almost 40 years I would be more surprised if you had heard of it.

There is one branch on Regent Street, but that's only five minutes maximum from Savile Row.
'juvefan' must refer to one of the three Oxford Street stores.

That's a little unfair... it's better than Primark. It's more like the Japanese Gap, which is to say better fit, fabric, and style. Good place to get unadorned basics, like cheap, relatively slim, casual linen shirts, made-in-Japan selvedge denim, etc. I've not yet been disappointed.

Couldn't be kinder than that...
