Uniqlo S/S 11

[conqueror]

i use sharpservice regularly to get uniqlo from japan, no problems at all. hide is generally very fast.

[kevinh.]

is it me, or are the uniqlo oxfords substantially thinner than previous seasons, practically see through like?

yes and quality sucks, one wear and cuffs are destroyed

[ILLuminate]

really? i have 3 oxfords that i bought last summer and worn many times since, they're still in great condition.

don't have a point of comparison in terms of the thinness, maybe you're right on that part

[anonymouz]

Is there any proxy for asian uniqlo? I owned the FW10 Flannel Slim Fit Jacket and mine got lost at a party somehow, now i would really want an new one.

Just got one of these yesterday for $59.99+tax. NYC uniqlo has a couple of black ones left

[DJ_Flame]

The parka sucks. Cheap hardware and length is too short.

Cropped pants are alright. Had to size up as they fit real slim.

I'm just buying +j for business attire these days.

[conqueror]

has anyone noticed a change in sizing (in japan at least)? i've proxied stuff for the last 3 years and have generally always been a JP L (oxford used to fit perfectly) and have never noticed a change in sizing. i just got an order in today and everything seems to fit alot smaller, inc the oxfords which is a huge bummer for me. much shorter on the bodyand also a bit narrower at the shoulders which then makes the sleeves a bit too short.

re: heattech leggings, i usually wear a 30 in jeans and got these in M. fit pretty spot on, thanks to vamp for the advice.

they are, but i assumed it was because they're meant to be for s/s.

otoh, people invariably gripe about how each season's oxfords is shittier than the last season even more than the uvc's.

Does anybody have any info on the material this jacket is made of? I know it is a blend. Is it waterproofed/rubberised or teflon coated (sorry if this is laughable given the price)? I am looking for something that uses material comparable to at least Baracuta but in this type of style.

Thanks,

different view of jacket. looks pretty good.

MATERIAL

95% Cotton, 5% Elastane

[Guest nooblet333]

Awesome jacket + elastane = happy me haha!

Went into Uniqlo to take another look at the J+ line.

Wow, so unbelievably bad.

In three collections it has gone from amazing to complete garbage while the price has steadily climbed. Even the suiting cuts have gone to shit. Shame.

[yannickl]

i really loved those black techy looking down vests...

any chance somebody got one in size L or are there any floating around your local uniqlo?

how much were they, btw?

[ranonranonarat]

went down to check out the +J stuff and the cotton twill parka that i wanted to pick up from a while ago was incredibly short. thing is that im not even tall or anything to begin with. disappointing.

[ranonranonarat]

im 5'5 (which is pretty short by asian standards) and they're still not up to mark with the length on these.

[narutofan]

I'm about the same height and I encounter the same problem as well (too often actually). The jacket looks pretty nice on you from the picture though.

[halomunkey]

I think it looks completely fine on you imo. It was made to fit right on the waist line...at least thats the way it looks on the model(s)

[eaglezephyr]

what size is that? BTW thats the perfect length I think ... not gonna work with a tshirt or something but with a shirt its fine.

I'm having doubts about getting a US Small (jap medium) now, im 5"10 shit.

[gearhead]

does look shorter than i expected, but it does look good on u ranoran, im thinking its better to wear it open

[gearhead]

jacket does look shorter than expected but it still looks good on u ranoran, however, i think it will look better left open, since it cuts off short

[Desi]

yeah that jacket looks fucking perfect. need to stop bitching. Take it as a spring windbreaker not a pre-spring jumbo jacket. All the pockets are misleading and that is what I feel keeps tripping homies up.

[ranonranonarat]

that is a size M that i tried on. the sleeves are a bit long even though it felt just right. size S was too snug for me. i'm from singapore if it helps any of you with regards to sizing.

well i went back to give it a try (since uniqlo is just right round the corner from where i work) and okay i caved in to something which i felt/thought didn't look right at first. feels a little less awkward than how it felt on, the other day.

well, for SGD$199.99 i'm not complaining. hard to find something else for this price that looks the same.

[eaglezephyr]

singapore follows the same sizing as japan right? So your size M is actually size S in US? Since there is no XS in Japan, where as US there is XS because that is actually the S in Japan equivalent? Sorry just wanted to make sure..

[aeneas]

hey ranonranonarat, which uniqlo did you go to in sg? my girlfriend is there right now, so i am trying to get her to purchase that jacket for me. she isn't superficially inclined, so she doesnt know where to look. also, what colors and sizes were left?

i should think that it follows the same sizing as japan. i am usually a size S in everything else, but for the +J line i need an M for most of the tops/outerwear.

i went to the one at 313 sommerset. it's the only one that carries +J. there was the khaki, dark brown and black the last time i checked and were available in all sizes..

I'm looking for a Uniqlo Paris Proxy, if someone offers, please PM me.

[Waffle]

this jacket by acne looks pretty similar imho

The jacket looks good on you and it sends an air of (I cannot find the right word) punk or funky. I agree about leaving the jacket open plus I suggest that you wear plain or printed white shirt underneath.

[readytoignite]

since when are t-shirts $5 less than button downs? craziness.

[slight]

Stopped by Uniqlo in Taipei today, pretty disappointing, nothing but regular fit chinos and stone washed jeans... perhaps between seasons?

Only ended up picking up a couple of oxfords, ah well.
