Alexander Plokhov + Uniqlo (may 22nd)

Re: Alexander Plokhov + Uniqlo (may 22nd)



guys, i have two pairs of the shorts (one in grey, one in black) that I need to return....let me know if you are interested, and I would be happy to pass them along. They are size L, though, maybe too big for all you skinnies?[:P]

From what we were told at the Soho store, the collection was extremely small and they will not be restocking.

I have to admit, I found it very underwhelming....the fabrics are not so good (which one expects, of course), but most of the designs were ridiculously simple. The shorts were my favorite thing.

I agree Laika, the collection is rather boring, but the things I got will serve me well when things get hot and sweaty.

Here's my 2cents.

Quality isn't stellar as expected, but the
stuff looks good and fits well Prices were $30 for polos $40 for
button-ups, shorts and jeans, and $50 for the jacket (i think, doing
this off the top of my head).

I didn't like any of the button
ups, and they seemed to be cut rather large, most of them looked
cheap/boring. The polos are nice, all that was left in NYC were 2 white
ones in XS so I got one. IMO the jeans and shorts were the best buy,
then maybe the jacket if you're looking for a really simple nylon coat.

I'll probably go back Saturday, as I've heard they might be
restocking then, I wouldn't mind getting another polo in a different
color if I can.

The quality for most was pretty bad (especially the button downs)....except the VEST, which is a great value....the polos are fine and the polyester jacket is really thin, but I needed something light anyway (I bought two cuz it was cheap and I figure one would probably tear soon...hehe).

Oh and Large is the biggest they come. I fit into mostly everything except the shorts.
