Undercover x Uniqlo

[popeyejawns]

need some uu?

HOLLER AT ME FOR A PROXY

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

checked some stuff out. didn't like biker at all. both the hooded parka and zip up were *alright* but meh. cropped chinos were alright tho, might have copped if i didn't have to put money elsewhere at the time.

[tastemui]

no it doesn't

went to london flagship this morning, almost dead empty, seriously disappointed with pretty much everything I saw. The parkas are ok. Rest is just shit. Def. worse than Jil colabo.

Maybe next season

yea...the quality is like shit...

I could only see chinese buying this collection.

[TonicAura]

Guess I'm gonna pass on the blousons since people keep saying quality is crap, oh well, just waiting on the graphics to drop I guess

Anyone know how quality/fit is on the check shirts/skinny jeans/sweat zip hoodie?

[S7777]

What a u turn.

[ravennavaro]

i bought some stripe t-shirts, better than normal uniqlo quality i'd say. bought an oxford too, fit is nice, im 178cm/65kg, bought a small

Moved this thread to supershopper because there is no point of having this in superfashion. People are going to complain about sizing and asking to people to proxy some t-shirts.

if anyone is looking to get the xs rider in blue, i have one for sale.

let me know if you're interested and i'd be happy to sell instead of returning it

okay, why is everyone complaining about the quality of the products? i dunno about you guys but I've handled the stuff and it's up to the standard of the rest of uniqlo's product as far as i'm concerned. if you're all expecting undercover/undercoverism league quality or whatever then get the fuck out of uniqlo and go spend far larger amounts of money on what is ultimately a better (and far more expensive) product. otherwise uu's aight for basics imho. looking waaay too far into this shit i think.

[dismalfuture]

I agree with you gndm, people want the cheap charlie but it's not gonna happen in fashion. Meanwhile, the parka, the hoodies and the knits, they are pretty good for what you pay for them. the designs are nicely edited, they're interesting to look at. Undercover the full-on label is nice but doesn't exactly conjure images of incredible quality either, it's rather middling, all things considered.

[natoah]

looking for blue riders jacket in M or L ! hit me up if you can get me some!

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^don't do it. imho biker jacket is the biggest let-down of errthang from uu. but that's just me.

because everybody is expecting the level of quality that previous collabo had. It's just a letdown to see that they would rather opt for crap quality for less then better quality for more, especially since Jun is signed under this.

[Desi]

my two biggest problems with the rider are 1) sleeves super long 2) same synthetic leather Uniqlo uses on their jackets. I wished they upped for better pleather, shit feels like Charles 1/2 Urban Outfitters shit.

[AYIYI]

those sweats are looking nice, might have to cop.

[yoda91]

cmon guys , yall should know the uu concept is clothes for family in these tough times opposing +J's mention of quality.

jun delivers his part to me.the clothes were average and cheap...looking forward to what he can do in the f/w collection

[cloudstr1f3r]

Not in the support for Uniqlo or anything, but the prices in Hong Kong for this crossover line are pretty reasonable. I can pick up an Armani Exchange leather jacket for about 200 USD in Hong Kong, and the Undercover x Uniqlo biker only costs 100 USD. Frankly, the design for the Undercover x Uniqlo biker is better than a normal Armani synthetic leather jacket. Now, it's just a trade off, would you prefer spending less for the design or more for the quality. I wouldn't look into quality in the crossover line, since it's just obviously a collaboration of the two brands and that's it. Uniqlo made Undercover accessible to the ones who don't have the extra money to spend, and this was the same with the Jil Sander collaboration, rather than criticising its quality, we should focus on how such crossovers made some brands accessible to the general public. Quality is guranteed to be underpar in this collection due to the price, and if you want better quality and design for a similiar price, frankly, you're seeing your expectations too high.

[yoda91]

any of u think i should alter the length of rider jacket?

[cotonblanc]

any of u think i should alter the length of rider jacket?

is that even worth it?

i never saw the previous collab, could never handle it. but to call this collection "crap" quality is you setting your standards way too fucking high imho. the quality's perfectly acceptable, particularly at the price point. as far as i'm concerned it makes total sense considering the "family" theme of the collection *and* in this day and age where there's shoppers trying to be economic. face it, there's gonna be regular folks who don't give a fuck about undercover who might opt to do some family shopping in uniqlo and go buy some uu stuff for the whole fam. there's just too many folks on sufu (again) looking too far into it.

but this is just me, whatever.

[emixam]

anyone checked the caps ? Fit pic would be nice.

that's the only item I am diggin' by looking at the pics.

[yoda91]

is that even worth it?

it is still a garment with thoughts behind it..it doesnt mean cheap clothes should just let it rot or whatever

in material construction and shit you obviously can't compare +J and UU, but UU is leagues ahead of +J in terms of interesting design and makes +J look like gap or topman

[TACO_FLAVORED_KISS]

so which of the items listed on the uniqlo site, are not at stores?

[Augustus]

I agree that the riders jckt was underwhelming, but it looks decent, comfy for the warm spring weather, and it's something you can just throw around without worrying about getting stains and shit on it.

[kH0yA Sw@Gp0o]

^i guess, yeah. but then again i was never *too* interested in it anyway, bikers tend to look pretty off on me.

[TACO_FLAVORED_KISS]

Any check out the jeans? from the measurements it seems they have a nice cut--- slim top block, aggressive taper.

[jeepers]

imma cop the hidden placket shirts after next restock, more color options and it feels more substantial than my +j ones. will kop easy pants on sale and add ribbed cuffs.

When did Uniqlo start catering to fat Americans? I'm 5'10" 170 and athletically built, bought the rider in a large thinking it would be cut like asian Uniqlo and I could have easily gone for a small. Got a sweater from their regular line as well in a medium and its crazy huge in the body. Guess I have to start eating hard or flip it on ebay.
