[Megathread] Site/App Complaints Central

45 Upvotes

This is your safe support group to share gripes and complaints about the new UX.

The new Uniqlo redesign sucks - you know, I know, we all know it. Due to popular demand as the mods of r/uniqlo we're creating a centralized containment thread for site sucks sentiments, because every time Uniqlo switches another country-specific site to the redesign we get a fresh wave of complaints.

We are an unofficial subreddit and we are not paid by Uniqlo. As such we can't guarantee Uniqlo will read or take any action based on complaints.

Please note that site sucks threads outside of this thread are now not allowed. If you see any please report it using the new rule. This will not apply to threads created before the megathread.

Terrible pilling on my Harrington Jacket

Is there a way to save it? I googled and searched Reddit and no one else seems to encounter the same problem 😭

I tested a UNIQLO Supima T-shirt for 128 hours and 10 washes. Here’s what happened.

303 Upvotes

I’ve been testing white T-shirts under the same basic conditions, and one of them was the UNIQLO Supima Cotton Crew Neck T-shirt.

I wore it for 128 hours and washed it ten times at 30°C, measuring it when new, after the first wash and after wash 10.

A few things stood out.

The biggest change was shrinkage. The body length went from 72.7 cm to 67.5 cm — a loss of 5.2 cm, or 7.2%. The sleeves shortened by 10.5% and the shoulders by 6.5%, while the chest and hem widths barely changed. In practice, that made the T-shirt noticeably shorter and less balanced in fit.

It was already slightly skewed when new, and noticeable twisting remained throughout the test.

The fabric also changed quite a lot. It felt soft and smooth when new, but had already become noticeably less soft after the first wash.

By wash 10, widespread pilling had developed across large areas of the fabric.

I’ve put the full measurements, more photos and traceability notes on White Tee Lab if anyone wants the full breakdown.

I’d be especially interested to hear from people who have bought more recent versions of the Supima tee. Have yours held up differently?

Any other women have trouble finding pants that fit?

3 Upvotes

So I’m a size medium at Uniqlo and hate how only 2 pants/shorts have fit me from here. Their sweatpants, bikers shorts and the ultra stretch active wide pants fit me perfectly. Other than that, it feels like their other pants do not stretch at all from the back. The waist area fits good but there’s no stretch options in the back area.

It feels like the majority of the women’s bottoms is only meant for women with a specific build and doesn’t offer room for stretch.

Am I just getting the wrong size or is this just how they are?

I just purchased the black Pufftech jacket. Does it work as a midlayer in winter? It seems very warm for this purpose. Any fans of this one?

What happened here?

I bought the red one almost a year ago and I got the black one yesterday. As soon as I put on the black one I noticed something feels off and on Comparison, it looks like the black one is longer. Both are the same size S and the same type ā€˜Oversize crew neck Tshirt’. What do you think happened here?

Now returning this is gonna be a hassle as my city doesn’t have a Uniqlo store and the closest store is almost 3 hours away in London.

Help! Which jacket should I get?

15 Upvotes

Can’t decide which one to get.

The blue one is from the women’s section, size XL, price is very nice Ā„5990 = $40

The brown is from men’s with my usual size M; price is Ā„8990 = $57

I usually like the dark academia aesthetic (during winter if that helps)

Also, should I wait for the thanksgiving sale or cop now?

Thank you šŸ™

What is still worth buying in 2026

82 Upvotes

I’ve been hearing a lot about a decline in quality on some pieces, but I’ve never worned anything from the brand before. I’ve mostly bought from brands similar to Zara. What pieces are still good quality from Uniqlo?

I’ve been hearing people still recommend their jeans, underwear, and some shirts.

Is there anything, you would only buy from Uniqlo vs other brands?

Is this normal in UNIQLO, or am I just having a bad experience with the work culture?

13 Upvotes

I’m a fairly new Retail Specialist at UNIQLO, and I’m wondering if this is normal in other branches too or if it’s just the work culture in my store.

I’ve noticed that some of the longer-tenured staff seem to leave their unfinished tasks to newer employees, sometimes at the last minute, and still expect us to finish everything before clocking out. I understand that retail is fast-paced and that tasks need to get done, but it gets frustrating when you’re already handling your assigned area and suddenly have to take responsibility for someone else’s unfinished work.

For example, when I’m assigned to cash wrap or the fitting room (FR), there can be so many RP (replenishment) and other tasks to handle. Even when I’m busy with my current responsibilities, I’m still expected to run all the stock myself before my shift ends. If I ask someone from the relevant area to help run the RP, sometimes they don’t even respond.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that, as a newbie, it sometimes feels like your requests for help or consideration aren’t taken seriously. I understand that I’m still learning and that experienced staff have more responsibilities and knowledge, but shouldn’t teamwork go both ways?

I’m not trying to generalize everyone because I know there are genuinely helpful and kind people, and I understand that every store has its own dynamics. I just want to know if this is something other UNIQLO employees have experienced too.

For current and former UNIQLO employees:
1. Is it normal for senior staff to leave unfinished tasks for newer employees right before their shift ends?
2. Are new employees generally expected to handle multiple areas and finish all assigned replenishment before clocking out?
3. How do you deal with coworkers who don’t respond when you ask for help?
4. Is this just how retail works, or does it sound like a problem with our store’s teamwork and task delegation?

I’d appreciate honest answers and advice on how to handle this professionally without coming across as difficult or uncooperative, especially as a new employee.

I bought sweater and pants recently from uniqlo. I feel like yung sweater nilagyan lang ng branding na uniqlo. Nung nilabhan agad after mabili, nagfafade na agad yung color humahalo sa water ung kulay kahit pangalawang laba. Is uniqlo doing the same thing as sa ibang stores. Naghahalo ng ibang cheap item sa known brand and magpapatong ng malaking mark up kahit hndi worth it.

Recommendations on Products to get on Paris and which is the best one in town?

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone, later this month my mom will go to Paris and she will go to Uniqlo and buy some products for me and my brothers. I wanted your recommendations on the products I should ask for her to bring for me.

I would love some not so casual pieces of clothing that I could use for the office in a semi-formal environment but also on casual plans. I“m a male in my thirties, white with brown hair.

It can be anything, pants, sweaters, polos, etc.

And which store in Paris is the best in terms of variety? I“ve heard there are a lot of stores there so I wanted to know which one should my mom visit.

Thanks everyone for your help.

Skimpflation on women’s shirts at Uniqlo 😤

There’s been many grumblings about Uniqlo downgrading its quality in classic pieces but without proof but please look below.

In the coming soon section there are cottton/polyblend blouses for the same price as actual cotton shirts released earlier in the year.

I honestly feel like boycotting Uniqlo and the entire mass production fashion industry.

Unicorns? No, Uniqlo's UV cut umbrella is honestly so good. The fabric blocks UV rays well and feels really durable. The handle, in particular, is super sturdy. I bought it for around 29,000 KRW, and I'm totally satisfied with it!ā˜”ļø

It's also compact enough to carry inside my bag 🌟
