UNIQLO Opens Tokyo T-Shirt Super Store

Japan’s ultra hip UNIQLO has opened a t-shirt shrine in the heart of Tokyo.  The shrine is a 5,000 square foot space dedicated to t-shirts.  The entire experience has been designed in a very modern way.  For example, t-shirts are bottled and canned and displayed in very unique ways.

UNIQLO is an innovative Japanese company that Trend Hunter has covered before.  Last time we posted about them was nearly a year ago when the company was opening Container Stores in NYC.  These stores were in actual shipping containers.

A t-shirt is never just a t-shirt when UNIQLO is involved. This essential wardrobe staple is not just an article of clothing, but also an expression of who you are, how you feel, where you’ve been and what you love. On April 28th in Harajuku, Tokyo, UNIQLO will launch UT, short for Uniqlo T-shirt - a new store concept designed by UNIQLO creative director Kashiwa Sato whose vision is that of a futuristic convenience store for t-shirts. Each t-shirt style will be displayed on forms in stainless steel display cases, with the individual t-shirts packaged in clear plastic canisters resembling tennis ball cans. The t-shirts will be stored on open shelves, making the shopping experience truly unique and virtually self-service. With more than 5,000 square feet of selling space spread out over three floors and a fourth floor gallery space, the UT store will in essence serve as a shrine to this fundamental and favorite article of clothing.
