UNIQLO has announced that it will begin selling a ” semi-customizable men’s stretch wool jacket with 2,112 combinations to choose from” on its official online store on Tuesday, 1/12/2016. image: uniqro
Designs. Regular fit and slim fit. Three colors: standard navy, gray, and black. Adjustable body width, length, and sleeve length. The material is stretch wool made from Super110’s wool. The lineup also includes pants made of the same material, so it can be worn as a set-up suit, which is a selling point. Delivery is available in as little as 7 days after ordering from the online store, and the price is 14,900 yen (tax not included).
*As you know, ” Super110’s ” are of varying quality depending on the weave density and the ratio used throughout the fabric. We expect to see what level of fabric UNIQLO can achieve at this low price.
First, measurements are taken by suit sales-trained staff at specialized corners set up in 10 stores in Japan. Users can then place their orders at the online store by filling out the necessary information based on the measurement cards they receive. The number of stores with dedicated corners is scheduled to increase to 118 this spring.
