Uniqlo SoHo

Does anyone know if the Uniqlo flagship store on Broadway has opened yet? If not, is there an opening date? All the website says is "Autumn 2006".

[mwrenchd]

Yes, it's open. Was not at all impressed by their selection.

I think you're talking about the one on Broadway and Broome. The flagship store hasn't opened yet; it opens on Nov. 10th.

[HisPiffness]

Yeah, I was referring to the flagship store...glad to hear that there's finally a concrete date. The one on Broadway and Broome was strictly okay when I went, but it was way too crowded and disorganized to really enjoy.

has anyone been to the jersey store??is it worth the visit??

[sushijerk]

The Jersey store is pretty nice and definitely not hectic. I'm not sure what kind of selection the flagship is supposed to have but the one in NJ near me seems to have all the basics in lots of colors. Prices are cheap although not the obscene bargains that the store had when it just opened ($25 jeans, $14 dress shirts, etc...). Last I went they still had the shuffle loom denim in just about all sizes on sale.

Right now the newer items seem to be velvet blazers for $80 and a cashmere sweater for around $100. Also some decent pullover hoodies at a $12 introductory price.

If you're referring to the one in Edison,NJ at Menlo Park Mall (is that the only Jersey one?) yeah i've been.It's actually 2 stores down from where I work.I guess thats the one sushijerk is talking about too.I was really surprised to see the shuttle denim there and was contemplating whether I should pick it up but then I saw the black dress denim and I think I'll get those instead.It's definitely the most underrated store in the mall because people around here aren't really down with Uniqlo, but everything in there is nicely priced and it's never busy.

the new broadway store is being designed by masamichi katayama from wonderwall - [all the bape stoes etc etc] so it will be one to watch out for....

[englandmj7]

^^ Love Wonderwall. Any idea when it's opening? Hope it is by Thanksgiving

[dunkin deeznuts]

i was told last week that the opening date got pushed back and they are not sure when they will open the flagship store.

[HonoluluStatus]

from the look of it, i can't see the store opening by nov 10th....its pretty much all open space still. I hope they prove me wrong

[darkanimal]

It will definitely open by then, they just tapped Ty Pennington to supervise.

I was thinking along the same lines as you, but when I asked Uniqlo management last Friday, they gave me the Nov. 10th. The upcoming container stores give me hope that it will open along that time-frame.

bwAH! :eek:

[angrypork]

Yeah I passed by Tuesday and looked inside. Theres really nothing inside there at all yet. Just open space and a lot of construction workers walking around haha. The outside huge poster thing they have is pretty sweet though.

[darkanimal]

[englandmj7]

I just might be lucky enough then.

[rabka]

i worked at the edison, nj one

i got fired

What are the Uniqlo container stores, and where will they be located? Also, what kind of stuff are they selling? Is it just housewares?

[oOmegaOo]

Basically, the container stores are Uniqlos on wheels. I'm encouraged by this because I figure they would be doing promotions like this since the flagship is opening soon. I may be wrong though.

You mean Jersey stores. I've only been to two of them, casue the one in the rockaway townsquare is too far to go to. Here's a run down of the stores stock wise.

Freehold Raceway Mall: Decent selection of everything. Store itself is pretty big, considering that the mall could of of made it bigger. Jean wise, I can usually find my size in everything, including the shuttle denim, which is always on sale for $39.99. T-shirt wise it's always a loss. I can never find medium shirts, I guess that it's a popular size. Location: Down stairs near Sears.

Menlo Park Mall: At first look, the store may seem the smallest of the two, but don't let that decieve you. The store is deeper than it seems. The store has a giant selection of everything, everything seems to be in stock. Better of the two.

[rocker4life]

thanks..will heed your advice

[mlproject]

looking forward to the opening. the store on broome barely had anything when i was in there.

those container stores are an awesome idea. my friend pitched a similar idea to the limited group and a few others and got shot down about a year and a half ago.

[HisPiffness]

So I guess you more or less just have to stumble across a container store? I looked on the site and couldn't find any listings saying where/when they would appear.

If you follow the link in my post, it has the whens and wheres.

Does anyone know if Uniqlo Soho's flagship store is still set to open tomorrow? If so, what time will it be open?

[oOmegaOo]

Yes it will open tomorrow, probably during their regular store hours (Mon-Sat: 10:00am - 8:00pm / Sun: 11:00am - 7:00pm).

I knew Ty wouldn't let us down!

[weirdnjfan1]

My best guess is that they will open the same time as the one on Broome, 10 AM.

[HisPiffness]

I'm not gonna lie, I am pretty excited...if you see a man there at 10 AM with a wild look in his eyes and piles of clothes in his arms, chances are it's probably me. I hope they have all the collabo clothes there, and some good outerwear too. I've been counting on buying a winter coat at Uniqlo on the cheap.

[polishmike]

i hope they have more than jersey stores. i'm not sure what collabos they might have since nj stores have none. are there some opening specials? new unreleased stuff?
