Uniqlo US Webstore
 
the japanese "fast-fashion" retailer just opened their online store in the US...good news for those that frequents Pt Roberts/Blaine/Sumas.

Any idea how they fit?

They plan on opening 20-30 locations a year trying to take on Zara and H&M...so there's a good chance they'll be in town soon.

It depends on if they re-sized shit to fit fatass Americans. In Japan, an L fits like a M for me.

I have a few of the Metal Gear shirts, and they are all xl's but I could fit into a large.

If they port their stuff right over, the woman's clothes will fit most asians, the gf loves them and bought a bunch when we were in Japan earlier this year. The men's stuff.... I'm not too fond of. Their collars are either too small or too big.

freakshow 10-22-2012 12:44 PM

They already have Uniqlo stores in the US, so I assume that the sizing matches what is in their existing physical US stores.. nothing to 'port over'

hpw912 10-22-2012 01:29 PM

cool. good to know.
where is the closest uniqlo store in the states to us?

twitchyzero 10-22-2012 01:32 PM

^ bay area..i believe the other 4 are on the east coast
perhaps someone who's bought stuff from those stores can tell us if it's american-sized haha

freakshow 10-22-2012 01:47 PM

I went to the store in NYC.. it seemed to be normal sizing, not too americanized.

StylinRed 10-22-2012 02:20 PM

they need to add an XXL, XXXL, B&T sizing for america if they want to succeed

EmperorIS 10-22-2012 05:58 PM

aaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhh :awwyeah:

SkinnyPupp 10-22-2012 06:06 PM

They changed their size chart, so the original XL becomes an L. I think for T-shirts and stuff they also added a US XL

Uniqlo Asia Large = Uniqlo UK/US Medium + Extra Sleeve Length.

I have two Uniqlo cardigans. One purchased from Uniqlo in NYC and one from HK. They are different cardigans but both size medium. The NYC one is definitely larger fits like a North American size medium. The HK one more like a North American S or even XS.

Ulic Qel-Droma 10-23-2012 12:17 PM

the US site doesnt even have their V-necks... or do they? i cant find anything except regular t-shirts.

Tim Budong 10-23-2012 12:22 PM

need a US CreditCard like Nike or we can use Canadian Card and ship to US

Energy 10-23-2012 12:35 PM

We can't use our Canadian credit cards because they don't take Canadian billing addresses.

dachinesedude 10-23-2012 01:05 PM

doesn't take canadian credit card = useless

should say in op

Energy 10-23-2012 01:09 PM

I know right? This thread got my hopes up too... Placed a couple of things in my basket and when I got to checkout I was like :fuuuuu:

twitchyzero 10-23-2012 01:29 PM

have you tried calling your CC to try and add a 2ndary billing address? It might/might not work.

StylinRed 10-23-2012 02:10 PM

you can order from the US Website

I emailed uniqlo and they said just email your order number or order with the correct information and they'll authorize it

here i'll quote it just in case ppl are :suspicious:

Hit or miss depending on the rep that you replies it seems.

Dear xxxxx,

Thank you for your email.

I do apologize, it seems as if it would be impossible for you to complete this purchase without both the billing address and the shipping address being a U.S based residence. If this is not the case then it may fail our security checks.

However, upon checking my online banking it appears the transaction went through automatically. I entered my full address in the City field of the Uniqlo Website and for state and Zip selected WA and 11111, and it seems it tricked the credit card authorization system into allowing the transaction. :fullofwin:

Went to Uniqlo when I was in NYC and got some sweaters from there. I usually wear XS/S but got S sweaters. Their shirts almost fit the same as J.Crews I think.
