UNIQLO x JW ANDERSON - Reviewing Every Item From This Viral Collection!

[@shaeemaqaiser4412]

So impressed that you included alternative options for the coat with the % of wool too. Top notch work and really helpful :) thank you

[@aaron6091]

For £40, I would've picked up the souffle yarn sweater if it was a meaningful amount of wool, at least 30%, that would explain some of the cost at least. Picked up the flannel which is decent but still a bit expensive tbh.

[@kevinauyeung8]

flannel is rather thin compared to other brand's offering. But yeah the jumper is controversy for sure

[@noahvember]

awesome video. those low wool, mostly acrylic/poly sweaters will be soft at first but after wearing and washing they will look crusty and worn out. the all wool pieces can get softer and less itchy over time and retain quality

[@kevinauyeung8]

I've never bought souffle before so time will tell how they wear!

[@ayumelove]

do you know how to wash wool?

[@dontobby89]

I've got some of these from 2 years ago and they still look beautiful.

[@machupikachu8349]

I find acrylic to be one of the worst fabrics. just not worth spending ANY money on imo. I’m totally disappointed in this collection both in terms of fabrication and style.

[@noahvember]

@@machupikachu8349 that's how they make a lot of money. put a little bit of wool in it for marketing it like a wool garment, and sell it at wool prices but with acrylic material

[@wzz2891]

Great vid! What jeans are you wearing btw?

[@kevinauyeung8]

Thanks! Those were from studio Nicholson!

[@acidbern12]

Now I wanna pick up both the jeans and the pleated trousers. Great vid!

[@kevinauyeung8]

You can't go wrong with them at that price and 100% cotton!!

[@fransisco5748]

Hi man. Just want to say thank you for the Uniqlo videos. I live in Japan where Uniqlo obviously originates from, but Japanese KZbinrs that I watch aren't so informative (aside from Sleepy Boy Dai, if you want my recommendation). But your videos have been my go-to since the Uniqlo C was announced this year. Thank you very much, especially since I think you spend extra money to buy all of those lineups that you probably don't need. Also, Uniqlo X JW Anderson has the best looking socks haha

[@alan-l7h]

Just curious do you speak Japanese ??

[@ShimaUta86]

There are a lot of Japanese KZbinrs that are informative. I’m guessing you don’t speak Japanese.

[@kevinauyeung8]

Arr thank you so much my friend! The socks are also selling out as well, the beige outs are all gone in the UK! Yeah for my earlier videos, I was trying to do S-Log for my earlier videos and colour grade myself, you might notice how the colours are just a bit messed up. I guess it was harder than I think!

[@VinceNet]

Sleepy Boy is great. I'm so grateful he subtitles his vids

[@Porygonclub]

Just buy it in Asia if you're travelling during the period, especially Southeast Asia, F/W mostly in stock, almost always on sale after a wait

[@kevinauyeung8]

Wonder if JWA is popular in Asia? I know in HK this will sell out instantly

[@Porygonclub]

@@kevinauyeung8 in the early days of the collab JWA collab would sell out fast, but nowadays they would sit, particularly F/W in hotter climates like SG, TH, VN, but I’ve seen good sizes go on sale in Japan months after release too

[@hayden760]

Not available in Southeast Asia this time, which is ironic, as this season is most interesting since the first collection.

[@Porygonclub]

@@hayden760 Yea totally, and considering SEA is nearer to where it’s produced too

Gradient sweater and the pleated chinos I gotta try

[@kevinauyeung8]

Highly recommend both!

Not part of the collection but what is the beige sweater youre wearing at around 0:57 second mark? Thanks!

[@kevinauyeung8]

It's the Uniqlo 3D knit seamless jumper

[@lemuelreyes1941]

They just released these in store at my location and I managed to snag the last medium after 6 minutes since the store opened 😂

[@kevinauyeung8]

Honestly I can’t believe how viral this jumper is! I’m not a JW ANDERSON fan but I think this drop resembles a lot of his products.

[@almightybushido4822]

A lot of brands are killing their winter drops! I'm excited to make some content myself for it.

[@kevinauyeung8]

yes bro! I will say this is the first time I'm excited for JWA.

[@UnforsakenKing22]

Awesome video thank you. Definitely made me interested in the pants with the way the fit with the different pairs of shoes.

[@kevinauyeung8]

yeah both of them are really good! Also at that price and 100% cotton, you can't miss with them!

[@ex0ticx0x]

Really surprised to see the souffle yarn sweater sell out that quickly in the EU. I thought it was nice but not THAT nice. Interested to see if it also sells out in the US

[@bryce7289]

ngl I saw that and I did NOT see the appeal. I thought the last collection looked way better too

[@kevinauyeung8]

I think there's a JWA community who REALLY like the gradation design

[@thepulp80s]

It did(I’m from the US). It launched at 0800 for me, and by 1000 it was gone in all 3 colors and all sizes. For some reason the jeans were the next completely sold out item. I really thought the jeans would sit because you can still buy the U Color Jeans, but no. JWA jeans got gobbled up.

[@ex0ticx0x]

@@thepulp80s Yep they all got sold out when I checked this morning. The hype is real

[@rockstar711]

Cool video, what size are you wearing in the diamond jumper? Thanks

[@kevinauyeung8]

I got XL. it's a tighter fit and I prefer it loose

[@LocustAndWildHoney]

Looking forward to the us release this was so helpful

[@kevinauyeung8]

Appreciate it bro 👊

[@nathanle8039]

What time does it drop online?

[@kevinauyeung8]

they came online here at around 8am, I don't know the specific time as it's not exactly at 8. Almost as if someone at Uniqlo just randomly decides it

[@Asapwiley]

For the pleated trousers, how is the sizing? Would I be okay purchasing my true size?

[@kevinauyeung8]

I sized down for it. they are quite wide and wears higher than usual as well

[@a42h]

Might have missed it, but what size did you get for the flannel shirt? I’m similar height and weight as you . I also prefer looser fit but not very long

[@kevinauyeung8]

There's still plenty of the flannel shirts left. I got it in L.

[@a42h]

@@kevinauyeung8 which items did you end up keeping from this collection

[@kevinauyeung8]

@@a42h I kept most of it. Just the jackets I didn't keep. They are both really good, but I have too many jackets and they take up a lot of space. I actually quite like the padded trench coat in the women's collection. Might check that out if it goes on sale for black Friday

Yes I did! I'm 175cm and 80kg :)

[@djrkm9281]

Does the blouson hold European Winters or no?

[@gn1reffus]

Do you know which country the wide trousers & yarn jumper made from? I'm planning to gift to someone however the person is just so picky with the manufacturer lol

[@kevinauyeung8]

If they are picky, then these probably won't be good for them 😂

[@vo_san]

Lucky you guys got it in early!

[@kevinauyeung8]

Bro I was there like 15 mins after opening and only just got them coz someone tried it in and left them in the changing room 😂

[@matthias8122]

I think clothes made with polyester are fine as long as they’re comfortable and they last several years of wear, at least.

[@kevinauyeung8]

Yeah I've come to this realisation as well. If it's sub £100/$150 then I'm ok with it. But if it's a premium product then I'm definitely more picky

[@orlog3343]

Did the sweaters shrink at all after washing? I find a lot of Uniqlo’s items shrink, even the t-shirts.

[@kevinauyeung8]

I've not washed them yet. But inevitably there will always be shrinkage because clothes are hung, handled, and given time to loosen up before they reach you.

[@pepm3746]

Im 5’11” 200lbs. Do you think L or XL for the sweater?

[@orlog3343]

@@pepm3746 I’m 6ft 175lbs. I got medium because it fits oversized. I’m usually a large in most stuff. It’s also kinda stretchy but very thick. Best to reference the garment measurements on their website to figure out which size you’d prefer. They are sold out everywhere I’ve seen though.

[@user-fq6hj5iw5t]

You decide? Can’t mate they sold out within an hour. Absolute joke

[@kevinauyeung8]

I was shocked how quickly they sold out! Checking main JWA stuff it seems they do a lot of gradation and there were definitely A LOT of JWA fans at Uniqlo when i was there

[@saifwozhere]

The souffle yarn range is horrendous. One wash and it starts pilling.

[@kevinauyeung8]

Luckily I don’t product BO and almost never need to wash my outerwears 😅

[@RyanLy-tr5ip]

Which colour was the most popular for the sold out sweater?

[@bryce7289]

looks like the green one

[@kevinauyeung8]

The green and blue ones were both completely sold out. I think the green one is slightly more popular. But tbh all 3 were completely out of stock

[@UnimportantAcc]

Really? That quick? Was the stock low or do people just really love synthetics 🤔

[@kevinauyeung8]

Probably a bit of both. No Joke there were people running from stores to stores around London (there's 3 on the same street in London) trying to get them. I feel like they aren't your typical hyprbeast or scalpers. Might be coz it does look similar to some mainline JW Anderson clothes coz they are very expensive in comparison

[@minhdo1398]

what's your height and weight?

[@kevinauyeung8]

i'm 175cm and 80kg :D

[@Plague_Doc22]

The blouson would have been much nicer if it was more of a cropped design imo. It is not long enough for the original style and not short enough for the cropped look.

[@kevinauyeung8]

I also think it's not as classy looking as Barbour. Personally I think the white mountaineering one would be very interesting to compare with this.

[@Plague_Doc22]

@@kevinauyeung8 Yeah the mountaineering one does look quite a bit nicer. I like the zippers on that one too.

Nah, I’ve given up on Anderson & Uniqlo collabs. The materials are low quality and the fits are all flappy. I’ve been disappointed in the last 2x collections.

I felt this was the first one that's quite good. But agree that previous ones were not great

[@gn1reffus]

Is it made in China?

[@kevinauyeung8]

I think at that price I'd rather go for someone more premium ☺️

[@kevinauyeung8]

Most Uniqlo products aren't made in China anymore. China has become more and more expensive for clothing manufacturing. People over there wanna get into tech instead garment Labour is higher than before, plus the currency is extremely strong ATM. They're mostly made in Vietnam or Bangladesh.

[@Plague_Doc22]

Super bummed when I saw the composition of just about every piece...such a waste of pretty designs imo. I dont want clothing that is meant to help regulate a nice temperature , be a bunch of synthetics that dont breathe.

[@kevinauyeung8]

Fair enough! I think I've come to accept that clothing nowadays will have synthetic in it especially if it’s on the affordable side. If the products are on the premium side, then I would definitely avoid.

[@Plague_Doc22]

@@kevinauyeung8 Thats a good viewpoint. I just think that things like 8% wool is almost insulting and only done so you can market it as "wool blend". Synthetics in t-shirts I dont mind as much but for things that are supposed to regulated temps more for winter/fall it doesnt make as much sense.

[@iriezerai-che6616]

everything is made in china😭

[@kevinauyeung8]

China is actually quite premium now a days. Labour cost and currency exchange rate sky rocketed and most people in China want to work in tech. Vietnam and Bangladesh have taken over China as the cheap manufacturing countries. However China still has that misconception of being cheap and poor quality.

[@machupikachu8349]

@irie There is so much misinformation about China and Chinese goods. you do know that everyone wanted to trade with China in the 19th century for the finest silks and teas and porcelain in the world, right? and then used imperialism to invade the country for their resources? what we see in the west is mostly the cheaply made goods from China bc the amazing things of very high quality like the BYD cars for example have outrageous tariffs on them bc they would out-compete domestic cars. making a blanket assumption that everything made in China is not good is ignorant. If you are shopping from a high street fast fashion retailer like Uniqlo and their production is coming from a Chinese factory that makes cheaper clothing rather than one of their more high end factories, blame that on capitalism and not China itself.

[@jasonmoser8957]

Uniqlo hasn't released a decent collection for about 5 plus years. Very stale
