Can’t share the excitement because I have been disappointed so far. Their clothes start looking very worn out just after a few washes, unless I am consistently buying the wrong stuff. In quality I feel it’s even lower tier than GAP or OLD NAVY. Can someone suggest what is good at the store ?

Their heat tech is not an item to skip. Three different levels of thickness and warmth. I have some lasted many many years.

HeatTech for life, especially the base layer stuff. Also a big fan of the all of the loungewear

I have noticed that some of their stuff feels rather thin and less durable than I would like.

But washing clothes in cold water and line drying them really helps extend their life. I never put anything from Uniqlo in the dryer to avoid the extra wear and tear.

Just mentioning this because I know a lot of people toss everything in the dryer out of habit.

The heattech, airism, and socks.

imo Uniqlo is a step up from Old Navy and Gap. Not the best quality but good for simple basics that will last for a bit.

Depends on what you want out of it, but their men's casual office wear is great. As far as I can tell they have cornered the market on men's work clothes for people who don't want (or need) to spend a mint on them, and just want something that is well-made and reliable and looks fine (not fashionable, but fine).

Buy all my underwear and socks there, some dress pants, a jacket, heat tech, and a few T-shirt’s. Zero complaints.

I’m told in Japan they’re essentially thought of as local Old Navy, but for us here it’s a bit more chic because the fit and style is way better than ON, Gap, etc. They do simple really well.

It’s not great quality, but for trendy looking clothing it’s pretty cheap compared to their “competition”.

Quality on clothing in general has dropped like a rock in the past decade, on all but the very high end, so a dropping tide lowers all ships… or something like that. They’re all trying to compete with fast fashion.

their pure linen goods are always excellent and much cheaper than their competitors!
