UNIQLO U returns, lead by Christophe Lemaire designing for the Fall/Winter 2021 season full of essential designs that are contemporary and progressive. The color palette is earthy for a neutral theme, spotlighting the bold silhouettes of the range and timeless cuts.
As the seasons get colder, the designs are made to be layered and creatively explored by wearers. Some of the notable pieces include the structured cardigan for men and the denim overcoat made in women's sizing. The rest of the capsule include pieces such as shirts, turtlenecks, sweat sets, casual suit sets, fleece jackets, paneling down jackets, shell jackets, cuffed nylon utility pants, and much more. There is also the HEATTECH socks that join the capsule as well.
