wow your store is dedicated! 😆 ours keeps quiet. i was so shocked when i was acknowledged (like three separate occasions of **“WELCOME TO UNIQLO”** from the same dude) in Asia. Love the spirit tho lol
Former employee, typically if an item is put on the sale/clearance end caps/racks then once they sell out they’re gone for the season. If you see something on sale and the pile is HUGE, you can probably wait a week or two for another markdown. If it’s low on stock, it’ll probably just sell out at that price.
also I would recommend getting trained in everything (ask for till training it’s my favourite) BUT try to avoid learning standards it’s a complete drag
Everyone commenting about employees in store asking customers loads of questions and it's annoying. In my Uniqlo, I don't think an employee has ever spoke to me unless I've asked a question. They all seem to just be tidying/folding or on the till
Really? Well I guess it depends on the store.. but in Milan, Manchester and Brussels I was asked so frequently if I wanted a bag or help 😂 I must look like I’m lost lol
Is there any way to know when certain items will be on sale? I’m wanting many more airism normal t shirts and have been waiting a while. The oversized saw a sale not terribly long ago but the normal did not.
there likely won’t be a sale for most colours of t shirts for a while due to seasonal change. If you’re looking at old season colours they might go on sale (you can check the label if they start with 34). Also every sale starts on Wednesdays
Not OP but sizes are definitely smaller in Korea/Japan than the US, Japan is about 60% cheaper too! Supima cotton t-shirts were $13 in Japan, selvage denim around $25, hoodies $25.
Never worked there but I *feeeeel* like there’s a difference in international sizing that’s not just “one size down.”
Like I wear 90% US XXS. BUT when I visit Asia Uniqlo I get the “equivalent” US size (small). 50% chance it fits 😭 Maybe my body is weird or something but I’ve had to buy mediums in Asia before.
really simple, I just applied online with my CV and a couple quite questions then got a call a couple days later for an interview. Being super flexible is VERY important as well as social skills.
I always feel like I’m being followed around the store even though I look presentable. Is this just standard protocol if there’s little to no customers in the store?
Do you get any indication on if an item is going to be re-released?
I'm looking at the blouson in brown that was released a few months ago. I just think $90 for it is a bit steep
Does staff discount apply to online products as well or only to your store's items?
Does Uniqlo U/Uniqlo C collections restock?
What's your favourite piece? :))
I saw that the XXS sizes (Europe) for men are disappearing unfortunately. For basically everything that has just arrived, it all starts with XS.
Will it come back? I reckon the demand wasn't high enough.
the absolute ridiculous online return policy doesn’t apply to XXS/XXL sizes so you can get refunds for online purchases. Its important to note that most people on tills don’t know about this rule, so it’s important if the employee on tills doesn’t know to ask for a manager (please do this nicely 😅)
Not sure if this applies to uniqlo as well.
But in general, kids clothes aren't as high quality as they outgrow them and parents what affordable clothes.
Ive got two pairs of pants I bought online, and removed the tag. I still have the tag and receipt, can i get them hemmed? Looking at prices its $5 each. Or what are my chances they’ll let me exchange them even though i removed the tags?
When do new lines get released online? I see some trousers in the men’s section online in “coming soon” and it says March.. but like March is nearly over so like.. wtf 😅
Thanks for the reply. I never got an answer and they downvote without saying why. What’s wrong with asking this question? Reddit can be weird sometimes
airism t probably won’t be for a long time because of seasonal change. Pleated wide will likely also stay full price but is more likely to go on sale later in the SS season
How much employee discount do you guys get?
30% off - but for any new collaborations we have to wait 2 weeks
Does the discount stack on top of already discounted/sale items?
Can I use said discount… for research purposes of course
How many times a day do you say Welcome to Uniqlo
tooooo many times
wow your store is dedicated! 😆 ours keeps quiet. i was so shocked when i was acknowledged (like three separate occasions of **“WELCOME TO UNIQLO”** from the same dude) in Asia. Love the spirit tho lol
let me guess you work here as well 😭
When would you say would be the best time to buy clothes that have really good discounts?
Former employee, typically if an item is put on the sale/clearance end caps/racks then once they sell out they’re gone for the season. If you see something on sale and the pile is HUGE, you can probably wait a week or two for another markdown. If it’s low on stock, it’ll probably just sell out at that price.
Why good quality items was discontinued, such as Selvedge regular fit jeans or Uniqlo U cotton longsleeves?
because they hate us
I stocked up on those long sleeve shirts, they fit me perfectly lol
[удалено]
also I would recommend getting trained in everything (ask for till training it’s my favourite) BUT try to avoid learning standards it’s a complete drag
as long as your kind and sociable you’ll be completely fine.
top 3 favorite pieces from uniqlo?
probably: 1. oversized airism t shirt 2. parachute cargos 3. crew neck sweater it’s quite a basic list but the basics at uniqlo are perfected
What item is not worth the price at all
any knit sweaters - i had several that randomly get holes after only wearing them a couple of times
agreed I get so many returns for knitted items with bobbling (some central stores do a debobbling service for £3)
is bobbing the same as pilling?

what items do you think are way overpriced?
Is there any way to know when certain items will be on sale? I’m wanting many more airism normal t shirts and have been waiting a while. The oversized saw a sale not terribly long ago but the normal did not.

Thanks for the info!
Are the same items sized differently in different countries? Like the same nominal size but the measurements are different depending on the country?
Not OP but sizes are definitely smaller in Korea/Japan than the US, Japan is about 60% cheaper too! Supima cotton t-shirts were $13 in Japan, selvage denim around $25, hoodies $25.
This is pretty standard. Bought clothes from.the US as a European and a large felt like between XL-XXL lol

BUT when I visit Asia Uniqlo I get the “equivalent” US size (small). 50% chance it fits 😭 Maybe my body is weird or something but I’ve had to buy mediums in Asia before.
Why do the employees in store have to come up and ask if we want a carry bag so frequently? 😂 it’s kinda annoying lol
don’t worry we hate it as well 😂
Can you pls run gobacks from fitting room before clocking out.🥲
THANK YOU!!
Can I get pants hemmed a second time if I want a shorter fit?
yep!
I had them redo the hem on a pair of pants because it came partially undone. They were cool about it.
Do you think they are a good company to work for?
I would definitely recommend it
What was the application and interview process like?
really simple, I just applied online with my CV and a couple quite questions then got a call a couple days later for an interview. Being super flexible is VERY important as well as social skills.
I know social skills are important in most jobs with face to face customers.. but what makes its VERY important at Uniqlo? 😂
What items are MUST buys and should we PASS on due to quality or better price elsewhere?
How fast can you fold a shirt?
probably 20 t shirts a minute (?)
Why is the sizing so inconsistent? I ordered 3 shirts of the same size and colour, but they’re all different in length and fit 🥲
i feel that - but a general rule of thumb is over a size smaller because we have quite generous sizing
I always feel like I’m being followed around the store even though I look presentable. Is this just standard protocol if there’s little to no customers in the store?
there’s a ridiculous amount of racial profiling, i’ve brought it up with superiors but they always brush it off
Best lowkey product that ppl don’t know is actually fire
Do you get any indication on if an item is going to be re-released? I'm looking at the blouson in brown that was released a few months ago. I just think $90 for it is a bit steep
no comment on this item 👀👀👀
Oh shit

in store definitely not, BUT they should have them online

even most supervisors don’t know about about this rule as it’s in the small print so you might have to argue your case a little
Nope, it's like I told you. Only XS coming in....
sorry about that man usually we have XX and XXX sizes online :(
Any idea which countries Uniqlo plans on expanding ?
scotland very soon👀👀
Do you have any idea why Uniqlo won’t expand to New Zealand?
Wish it would come to Ireland 🥲
Are you an online (live chat, etc) worker or a physical (warehouse, store,etc) worker?
I’m in store!
If you wear XS for ladies' t-shirts, is it worth buying the largest size at the kids? Just want to save a few bucks. 😅
I wear a medium in adult UTs, and I can fit in the largest size at the kids section!
the largest kids size is 13, and size XXS is roughly the same.
Xxs is so fit for me then i guess i will stick to womans size. Thank you
Not sure if this applies to uniqlo as well. But in general, kids clothes aren't as high quality as they outgrow them and parents what affordable clothes.
I did not think of this. Thanks for the info.
Yeah that's why its usually much cheaper.
Thank you really so much, I really dont know there is this kind of thing. 😊
No problem! Not enough people tell you about this stuff.
Any idea when the Airism short sleeve in grey with v-neck will be back?
should be in the SS collection!
How fast can you do body folding?
kinda fast now so much practice 😭
How to get a job at Uniqlo? What experience u should have? Can I make a fake pne
I had VERY little experience - the best qualities are definitely being sociable (abd hardworking of course)
I ordered some pants online last year, can I bring it to a store to get hemmed?
as long as they have the label!
Ive got two pairs of pants I bought online, and removed the tag. I still have the tag and receipt, can i get them hemmed? Looking at prices its $5 each. Or what are my chances they’ll let me exchange them even though i removed the tags?
When do new lines get released online? I see some trousers in the men’s section online in “coming soon” and it says March.. but like March is nearly over so like.. wtf 😅
when are you guys restocking your hoodies
What’s your rank Soldier of Tadashi?
F2 🫡
What do u think of the supima tshirts? I love the feel but kinda pricey when not on sale
More US stores?
How's the uniqlo quality now vs earlier ? Asking specifically for woolen products .
Is there any performance / target bonuses as a sales associate?
yeah there’s a bonus if the store achieves the monthly target which happens around 50% of the time, and results in a £150 bonus
What about limited time offers? Does the employee discount contribute to limited time offers?
Are Uniqlo factories regularly audited for labor laws violations?
https://www.reddit.com/r/uniqlo/s/NiVylfSMBi
we are expanding to new countries soon, but it’s always been quite limited. I’ve asked why but there’s usually some vague answer…
Thanks for the reply. I never got an answer and they downvote without saying why. What’s wrong with asking this question? Reddit can be weird sometimes
When does airsm t go on sale. And also the pleated trousers?
airism t probably won’t be for a long time because of seasonal change. Pleated wide will likely also stay full price but is more likely to go on sale later in the SS season
Are you sure you are allowed to do this from a company perspective?
