UNIQLO
UNIQLO's flags fly proudly around J-land. The store offers menswear, womenswear and childrenswear. It’s probably the only shop that has my size. Although the long sleeve stuff is still fairly short on my arms even if it’s an XL, the quality isn't too bad. I got a short-sleeve shirt three years ago and it's still fine. Zara, Benetton and FCUK are also available here but they are usually located in the larger towns and cities. Whereas Uniqlo is everywhere from a tiny concession shop in a train station to a hypermarket style drive-in. It's also a bit cheaper compare to London's High Street prices. And when the sale kicks off, they are practically giving it away. I got a Polo Top for 790 yen the other day. That's just over 3 pounds which is a bargain. For something relatively fashionable and good value for money Uniqlo really rocks!
