Is UNIQLO Still The Best For Affordable Basics?

[@HarryHas]

If you want to see some other shops I recommend for basics, I have a video on the channel called, ‘The Best Quality Affordable Fashion Brands.’ Thanks for watching

[@danieldam695]

Hey Harry, thanks for some great content. Always thrilled to see what you put out there. I've been looking for a shirt just as the one you are wearing. Where is it from? Cheers

[@MLGBrownCat]

Just to give an idea of how good Uniqlo used to be, I still have a couple of white supima t-shirts from around 2014 which have had over 200-300 wears and washes, no rips, stitching is still good and it still fits perfectly.

[@orbispictus6127]

Same, I have some supima tee from 2014 and they holding up very well. And when I saw new supima I didn't want to buy them.

[@Sirin111]

how do you wash a white tee so it's stay white?

[@orbispictus6127]

@@Sirin111 Always wash separately. White and color. You can soak your clothings before washing in hot water and bicarbonate (soda powder) mixed with vinegar.

[@jackmanleblanc2518]

They don't last like that anymore? Unfortunate. I've bought several Uniqlo shirts this year. Guess I'll have to see how long they last before buying more.

[@MLGBrownCat]

@@jackmanleblanc2518 nah, the ones I got were made in Cambodia using a higher quality cotton, could be wrong but the ones now are made in India with lower quality cotton

[@peregrineslim4446]

The prices are definitely higher, but I always found them to lean towards "thin". I live in the sub-tropics so I can't complain. I prefer their collabs.

[@RH-vd3yu]

Their Theory collab is the best

[@chrisjoshua266]

They’ve gone from $30 hoodies, to $40 for a few months. and now have settled with $50 ! Insanity. Many things have gone up in price but the basic sweatshirts is what blows me away. Their chinos too have gotten more expensive but have also become thinner

[@adamcohen2632]

The biggest problem I have with Uniqlo is their sizing is outrageously variable. Without changing my own dimensions in a one year period I have found clothes there that fit me ranging from XS to Large. Its not so problematic when shopping in their stores, but its impossible to know what size to order on new items and most importantly, they charge you for shipping on returns.

[@mizoboe6193]

yep. someone who gets it. i like my uniqlo pieces but its always a struggle to buy their pieces, especially online. I outgrew a small now, so I dont wear their smalls anymore, but even picking between medium to large can be troubling. I often resort to their tshirts now, because if I have a Tshirt in a large, it just comes off as a baggy Tee. Their hoodies i absolutely avoid, cuz even tho Im an average medium to large, their hoodie sizings are way too tight: but then an XL fits too giant on me

[@LimitedWard]

And then to add insult to injury, you can only return items to the same store you bought them from, and online orders must be returned by mail (no in-store returns).

[@supermitendo9654]

Since the fashion trend is moving towards a relaxed fit, more items in Uniqlo's line are also becoming more relaxed compared to years ago. I don't think it's really their fault because they're just following the market. They usually have a description somewhere in the item page about how the clothing is supposed to fit you. For me, it's always M top and S bottom no matter the type of clothing and the always fit me. My brother who doesn't wear oversized items always choose a size smaller if an item is oversized/relaxed fit.

[@pt257]

I love the Airism line, but I must admit this year I got most of my basics from weekday. Maybe because they are a bit edgier and feel just right for the post-lockdown summer.

[@HarryHas]

I’ve been using weekday more these days

[@Obsidia24]

Uniqlo Airism oversize tee are the best tee for this price

[@omertariq5082]

Absolutely agree here regarding their U t-shirt, I absolutely loved the boxy fit it had. Now, they just feel too slim for my liking. I couldn't believe how the fit could drastically change. Now looking at other places for a similar look and feel.

[@danyfalcon7315]

After watching so many videos in this channel talking how wonderful Uniqlo it is, I finally decided to go shopping at the store and I spend a solid $600 on basics, a week later I face this video saying its better to spend my money somewhere else lmao I love it.

[@HarryHas]

Hahaha. It’s still decent. It’s just not as good as it once was. If you have seen the pieces in person and felt them and liked them then you are all good.

[@TheNunakun]

Yeah don't feel bad about that. Like Harry said, if you like it, then it's worth it (this time). Uniqlo still has decent basics.

[@Theo-ul8qm]

I’ve always found uniqlo a bit overrated to be honest - always preferred GAP/Banana Republic for basics. And now, with uniqlo’s price increases, they might even be evenly priced.

[@mikebjammin93]

Same. Especially if you're in the US it's a lot easier to return something to Gap in a local mall than Uniqlo.

[@quanahabshire7066]

I use my Banana Republic polos in the dryer to collect lint and hair from my clothes. I haven't had the best experience personally 😕

[@Theo-ul8qm]

@@quanahabshire7066 sorry to hear that. Personally I’ve had good experience with their Luxury Touch line (tshirts, polos) and their merino wool sweaters.

[@swordsaver]

Same, the Gap in my opinion is more affordable than Uniqlo for basics and the quality I find is either the same or better than Uniqlo. I honestly never understood the hype around Uniqlo, I like their clothing but I wouldn't say it's the best option for basics. Plus the Gap has sales all the time and it's a much more affordable option than Uniqlo where I live.

[@GOZES]

Maybe It would have been best to mention some alternatives from other brands for the pieces where the quality from Uniqlo has gone down.

[@HarryHas]

Cheers for the feedback. I feel that would be a whole video in itself

[@edoalva48]

I can sense their change recently, although personally Uniqlo is still very much my go-to for basics. But their supima tees increased in price and some of their product lineups changed. For instance, their soft touch long sleeve t shirts now has sweatshirt style wrist when they have actual sweatshirts and sweater lineup, which wasn't the case back then so it is somewhat redundant. And the pocket oversized tee lost the different front-back length, small detail which I liked. Also for some reason they don't promote Airism as much anymore. Good thing is that U Tees, my absolute favorite are still perfect. Well, maybe other than for the white color not being actual white.

[@yuta3699]

My issue with most brands especially Ralph Lauren is that their quality and fit have gone bad over the years,most new brands such as Uniqlo started by impressing just to attract customers and after making their name they start cheating on the quality for more gains,corporate greed.

[@carlosdeleon6472]

Agree with you RL has gone down the drain, the clothing stretches out throughout the day I hate it. I returned something back just not worth the price for the low quality .

[@greenhat7618]

It’s not really a new brand though it’s been around for like 50 years

[@kut3b0y96]

Uniqlo used to be my go-to option when I first started working, as well as my fashion journey, thanks to their simplicity & affordability. But now I’m leaning towards having less, but higher quality pieces. All in all, Still a good place to start

[@HarryHas]

It’s definitely a good introduction to fashion

[@ryeofoatmeal]

what are the brands are you going for these days?

[@penguin350]

The thing I've found with Uniqlo, is that the sizing can be so off, even in the same tshirt, I've bought 3 tshirts at the same time in the same style just different colours, and they are all of different lengths.

[@WVRLORD]

That’s any fast fashion unfortunately,

[@PattyTH]

Me too. I found it on my oversized airism tees.

[@Ben_S_]

@@WVRLORD My favorite t-shirts are the Zara slim fit t-shirt and i own around 10-15 because i use them as a top, to layer under a sweater, for the gym as well as around the house and i had no issues with variations in sizing at all. However, i have tried on 6 Supima T-shirts and two of them were considerably shorter than the other ones. I know the cut and sizing on fast fashion is often times very questionable to say the least - but i have never encountere such variations in length.

[@thisistotallyfine]

I was a big fan of the supima tees when I first started buying Uniqlo basics. But after multiple washes, the shape just didn't hold up well anymore. Then I switched to buying U tees since the heavier weight material overall felt nicer, but as you said it's quite a rough texture. It's still nice looking but it's not exactly comfortable when wearing it in a hot and humid weather. Now I only buy the airism U tees which in my opinion is the best one. The sleeve is slightly too long but I usually roll it up.

[@HarryHas]

The sleeves are too long for me on that tee but they are comfy

[@emmanuelemman7699]

i would say try abercombie essential tees. really nice material and decent construction. can pick some up for very cheap rn worth buying a couple

[@meenathakur4771]

Totally agree with you....the quality goes down in last few years. Its more like H&M and other fast fashion brand. But the prices goes quite high. I am very frequent buyer of UNIQLO brand. I seriously notice the issues you mentioned. I started shopping the stuff only when they are on sale. I am not paying full price for this quality.

[@ryeofoatmeal]

'not paying full price for this quality' exactly what was I thinking 😭🤣🤣 very disappointed with their quality deteriorates

[@jzukill8607]

Hi! It's me again lol. Why am i seeing these kind of videos of yours so late about conversses and how to style them especially wearing trousers. I am in love with trousers, this helped me a lot I swear. Keep uploading more videos like this, you're helping a lot of people. Thank you, Harry! Love from Philippines

[@HarryHas]

That’s amazing to hear. Thanks a lot mate and glad I can help

[@FabulousResults]

I usually just stick to the U releases from Uniqlo. I do still like the supima tee but I gravitate towards my cos basic t-shirts now. However, I do think it makes sense that the prices have increased. I work in the furniture/design industry and the cost of raw materials have skyrocketed. Everyone's charging more nowadays. I would be skeptical of any brand that hasn't increased prices in general, they're probably cutting corners somewhere, probably with labor, environmental care, or materials.

[@HarryHas]

Very good point but I’d hope the quality stayed the same with the increase in prices. Unfortunately that isn’t the case

[@FabulousResults]

@@HarryHas that's definitely cause for concern, it may be that they can't get their original materials in the same quantities or for a similar price. Overall kind of disappointing, but there are still some pieces from them that I love. Generally I try to buy on sale though, otherwise it adds up.

[@joelman1989]

Good point!

[@Theis_P]

Uniqlo was my go to brand before but the the last year the quality has gone down and the prices has gone up, the quality is still fine but more like h&m in the 2000s to early 10s now but not what Uniqlo was before where I feed I got a quality that was 3 times worth the price. For me the things that are still good to buy from Uniqlo is the jackets and most things from the colabs, I will also day that if you have the option to try it on in store do that since Uniqlos sizes now a days is changing from collection to collection

[@JBuntingisinyourcloset]

I'm pretty sure they slightly alter the shirts for F/W and S/S nowadays, so that *might* explain the thinner fabrics

[@markdabi]

hello from 2023 and supima tee’s are now $25. i remember when i started college (2018) they used to be $10 and i really should’ve bought A BUNCH cuz i still have the old ones and feel AMAZING after washing and drying for 5 years!!

[@Mezelenja]

I was thinking this same thing. I went to the uniqlo flagship store and noticed that the prices definitely hiked up for their $6 shirt without the quality (which I always found lacking) going up. People always referred to uniqlo as affordable, but $20+ for a cheapo t-shirt just seems a bit much. I don't think I'll be shopping at Uniqlo for shirts atleast anymore. Their non denim bottoms can be of kind of questionable quality too tbh.

[@HarryHas]

It has got expensive for some items for sure

[@StellaPianowithShibaDog]

I actually only discovered Uniqlo two years ago from a student and started buying cheaper but super functional clothing basics like the heattech thermal base layer to go with my higher-end pieces. Uniqlo cannot compete with higher-end stores on the dress clothing side. It's true that a lot of their clothes are rough and I even started bleeding from rubbing their heattech waistband on my skin while layering something tight and a heavy purse on top of it. Agree that the roughness can irritate the skin. but I didn't return the tights because the inside is super soft and keeps warm. There's no branding on the tights so I can use it for a large range of clothing. the rough waistband became softer with wash and wear. I complained to Uniqlo about the roughness caused bleeding and they came up with a much softer version this year.

[@ONYX-365]

I used to order from Qniqlo quite often, mostly t-shirts & jackets. I haven't ordered anything since they started charging to return items 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@rydellgarcia]

I bought a grey polo Pique shirt from Uniqlo back in 2016, and guess hat, no signs of fading, the pique fabric is still intact. just crazy, its been 6 years but still good. but idk, i bought new pique polos couple of weeks ago but the quality is ay different now

[@sdamrongmanee]

I agree. I bought several heattech tshirts in 2018 which are still completely in tact after all these years of wearing and washing. Recently I decided to restock and buy some new heattech tops but they started to already fluff up after a few washes. The newer version of the extra warm heattech also has a less refined finishing around the neckline and a rougher texture on the inside.

[@persianwingman]

Uniqlo is OK for the price but I’d rather spend more and buy better, their quality has decreased over the years IMO. Uniqlo U is still better than the standard range.

I actually really like all the shirts I've picked up from Uniqlo this year. If the quality isn't there, then that's fine. I'll just wear them until they start to have holes ore the collar starts to look bad and maybe replace them with a more expensive brand then. I always have in my budget a section where I slowly add $10-$15 a month for basics in case I need some more.

[@jiehan4262]

The first U collection was great and was the best hoodie I ever bought from Uniqlo. Nowadays, Uniqlo prices are very high, especially in Europe; I don't know if it's the same in the US. In China and Japan, they are still very reasonably priced. But in Europe, it's almost always double the price when compared to Japan and China.

[@xxflamezxx1able]

Don’t get me wrong, I definitely believe people when they say Uniqlo has gone downhill but I feel like the video would’ve been better if you had actual older pieces to compare it to and not just going off of memory and anecdotes

[@HarryHas]

I still have the older pieces but they have been washed so much that it wouldn’t be a fair comparison. I only have the memories of when the pieces I already owned were brand new. If I could buy old seasons brand new and compare them I would but it doesn’t work like that unfortunately

Me being in Japan Uniqlo and G.U are very cheap so it’s still a yes for me but damn prices in other countries are high.

[@layo8770]

Of course, it all depends on the budget. I still think that among the mass markets they still remain one of the best. Uniqlo products should definitely last for a long time and they have a modern, trendy silhouette. This is enough to enter the world of fashion. I also have similar ankle pants and I also don't like how wide they look at the bottom. So I went to the atelier and asked to make them narrower in width for $ 10 By the way, this overshirt looks really cool on you, I hope you keep it! Sorry for my bad english! Great video as always.

While I still prefer UNIQLO to most other alternatives at that price range, they can be hit or miss these days. I feel like they really struggle with their pricing at the moment. Theire now more expensive pieces still feel great most of the time but in some areas they seem hesentint to raise prices enough to keep the quailty. Which makes sence, the raw materials have gotten crazy expensive over the last couple of years. I hope they focus more on the quality part of the brand again, even if it comes with more price incresses.

[@srca1990]

I got into Uniqlo laround 2018, but even then the Supima shirts were like 7 or 9.99 and they were my go tos for quite sometime. Last time I ordered them, there was a disappointingly noticeable change in quality and fit, as well as the new 14.99 pricing :/

Mango Man is the best, hands down. Zara quality is good but the direction they have gone in is more of the hip tiktok style rather than proper menswear. Currently working on my fall wardrobe and atleast half of it is from Mango Man. Seriously impressive stuff for the cost. Mango outlet also is nice if you need a more affordable option. Snagged 3 shirts, 2 polos, some pants, and a sweater for $110. Same quality as Mango Man just not current collection.

[@harryarigby]

Had a few thoughts on this Harry. There's a massive drive towards reducing cotton production due to its effects on the climate. So many places are recycling. Also with historical prices. We can't expect them to stay that cheap forever especially with inflation and people being paid a fair wage to work for a clothing company. But even in terms of business strategy if you start off cheap once you've got people through the door you put prices up. So all in all I feel there are reasonable factors for the difference in product but I can appreciate why people might sway if a product isn't what it was. If uniqlo isn't as good for basics which one is?

[@HarryHas]

I don’t think recycling is a factor here. I also don’t think that recycling means a poorer finish on products. I have plenty of pieces made from recycled materials and they are great. I get they need to put prices up but they could keep their products to the same standards they were before. If they are selling poorer quality pieces for higher prices, it’s not going to make me want to buy them. I agree prices can’t stay the same forever and I expect them to go up but at least keep the product to a decent standard

Quality on regular Uniqlo pieces has never been the best, except for a few pieces like their Blocktech line which is really impressive, Airism tees as well as their socks. Where Uniqlo really stands out is when they make collabs with runway designers. That’s when you get amazing quality (not to mention the top notch designs) and great value for money. I think the collabs really is what makes shopping at Uniqlo worth it.

And when asked about the quality of of Uniqlo’s collabs you just dismiss all of them when every renowned fashion critic has been going on about what incredible value for money each collab is. I’m not defending Uniqlo at all costs I’m just underlining the holes in your arguments and the fact that your opinion only rely on very narrow-minded tastes that shouldn’t be shared as something of value for others.

[@HarryHas]

@@xenofyl1 This whole channel is based on my opinion. My opinion on what's stylish or good quality isn't always going to line up with everyone else's. We all have our own tastes and preferences, but I am sharing mine. As I mention in the video, these are the items I bought from them on the regular. I still own and wear my old pieces but they have been washed hundreds of times, so all I can go on is the memory of how they were when brand new. It would be unfair to compare a t-shirt that has been through the wash hundreds of times with something brand new. The fashion critics you are talking about are giving their opinion on why they think it's incredible value for money. Everything anyone says is all based on their opinion and what they deem as being good quality or what's stylish to them. You can choose to take or leave their opinion, but if it works for you and you like the clothing, then what anyone else says should make no difference. I haven't liked the look of anything from the recent collab drops, so I didn't buy anything from them. That doesn't mean it's not incredible value for people who like it, it's just not incredible value to me.

Uniqlo gets a C- in sustainability and that's before you look at the longevity of their clothes. They only look good for 1-3 years then deteriorate exponentially. And that my friends is disposable clothing. Clothes used to last a lifetime.

As a stocky guy, i have trouble looking for their Tshirts. Seems all sizes are "slim" cuts.

[@kelseymolon]

I totally agree with your observations! Thought I was the only one noticing these

[@HarryHas]

Glad to hear

[@moonlightfitz]

Uniqlo is not available in my region yet.

[@loxienche3482]

Living in an apartment, I tend to tumble dry, and Unqilo is really bad for tumble drying as it shrink alot

[@gameb30232]

this is very useful because i look like him

[@aristonalexllltorres5456]

"unique clothing" its definitely popular in Asia esp in the Phil..love their clothes 😁

[@mb-watches]

Long time no hear, sorry for that mate. Was surprised but actually as well had some issues with Uniqlo recently. Bought an Iron free shirt which directly ripped. where I still like the Oxford shirts The dress shirts are not for me anymore. Love still the sweaters especially as not as thick. So that’s fine for me. Enjoy your Sunday, cheers 🙏🏻

[@HarryHas]

No worries man. Good to hear from you. They are a bit hit and miss aren’t they! Thanks mate. Have a good one too

[@stafwittebolle]

Were the supima ones really ever 6 bucks? For as long as I can remember they had the cheaper cotton tees for 5,99 and then the supima cotton ones for 14,99

[@HarryHas]

I may have got that wrong but it was cheaper for sure. They were £9.90 not so long ago

[@stafwittebolle]

@@HarryHas ye you could be right on the price being lower for those supima ones I still have a supima one that I love tbh but I doubt its from their latest batch Im going to a Uniqlo store soon so might to do a thorough check on their stuff

[@vinayswaye]

Nice video✌️ Video on dancer outfits please

[@HarryHas]

Thanks. What do you mean, ‘dancer outfits?’ I’m not a dancer

[@vinayswaye]

@@HarryHas Not Dancer But you Can suggest Best😂

[@duarterosado8926]

In my opinion if you're looking for affordable basics and you might ignore a little bit of the quality, Lefties would be a good choice! (If it's available on your country).

[@Mr94Kevin]

where did you get your black shirt from?

[@HarryHas]

It’s from Weekday

[@skylersloves]

I remember when I made my first and only order from them. A whole bunch of fashion KZbinrs went on and on about how great they were so I ordered two shirts and they came in smelling horrible like mildew/ mold. I never ordered anything again after that. Nothing that’s brand new should smell like that

[@HarryHas]

That’s a shame. I’ve never had that problem with them

[@sashabelkov916]

I am pretty sure it is was an accident You probably should give it another chance

[@skylersloves]

@@sashabelkov916 unfortunately I don’t have a lot of extra income. So when I make a purchase even if it’s on the lower end/ affordable things. I expect it to have some sort of quality and cleanliness to it. I don’t think I’ll purchase from them again at least not online.

[@christopherburtjr4998]

Outstanding video. Much needed.

[@kalshaikh72]

I agree with you, tshirt quality not like before.

[@DieQwietscheente]

I recently (February) picket up the boxy u T-shirt and thought it was similar to the ones I got a few years back. (Bought it in a store in Berlin)

[@megablake100]

Hey Harry, great vid as always. What are the jeans you’re wearing here?

[@rickhougardy]

Check out the blank stables line from H&M for heavyweight cotton basics

[@chroma-agogo]

I'm still wearing my U tee from like 5 years ago (which I got oversized)

[@ashle9034]

It's disappointing that the t-shirts that were always super reliable and heavy have turned to a crappy, scratchy typical shrinkage nightmare that the likes of h&m and Zara sell.

[@riley-4205]

Hi Harry, where do you recommend for plain tshirts? uniqlos letting me down with their fit.

[@benficaM8888]

I notice this. They've improved the quality for outerwear and overshirts.. overall their fit are better than years ago... People put too much emphasis in their basic t shirt (true the quality of t shirts has gone down).. but they ain't a t shirt company

[@gumerzambrano]

Personally did not like any of the clothes you showed. Absolutely love their shorts. Super comfy with deep pockets to wear year round

[@toobalkain]

they seem to have leaned heavily on to synth fabrics, they don't even carry 100% wool smart trousers, which were reasonably good value. Knits are still OK, I guess, though you can get same quality cashmere for less, cotton is quite bad now and has a weird smell.
