Welcome to Uniqlo!

One of my favorite products from Uniqlo is their range of UTs, especially the ones featuring Anime and Japanese Science Fiction Heroes. Here are a few very hard to find UTs of Kamen Rider Ichigo (Masked Rider No. 1) and Ultraman. They can't be found in Singapore Uniqlo (I actually asked them and they say they are not bringing in...) and are also quite hard to find in Japan. Thanks once again for my friend who got it for me on his recent Japan trip!

Detail of the Cyclone Bike on the left sleeve, brilliant touch!

Ultraman in his beam shooting pose

Detail of the Jet VTOL, the Science Patrol's usual mode of transport in the original Ultraman series, nostalgic!

Uniqlo UTs actually cost cheaper in Japan than in Singapore. They are very affordable and well designed and hopefully, they will keep up the good work and produce more of these gems!

  1. I love UNIQLO's UT printed t-shirts, they're always really unique designs and great value-for-money. My favourites were the Mickey By... collection, the t-shirts are really cool with a bit of edge.
