for RM50 i think they r decent.

but personally i din like them. its 100% cotton so unless u skinny u wont really get a slim fit. i had to size up 2 to size 34 n ended up the thigh/waist area being slim but the knees n below were baggy. i much prefer the RM 169.90 slim fit jeans coz they come with 2% elastane so more comfy.

Uniqlo provides free alteration service for items above RM50. u dun even have to get the alteration done straight away after buying the item. a few months down the road also they will provide free alteration as long as d items has not been altered in any way.

u washed the jeans yet ? coz there will be some shrinkage in length during 1st wash. i advice u to only alter the jeans after 1-2 washes.

y dun u just check out their french website

i had no probs...n i dun speak french.

u din wear it yet but the bottoms r getting worn out ? or have u been wearing it around the house wit no shoes on ?

i think every branch provides free alteration. but u most prob have to bring back to the Setia Mall outlet for free alteration. y not just give them a call n ask about the free alteration. the outlet's no is on the receipt. im pretty sure the SA misinformed u about the no free alteration.

i used to have the prob of jeans hem gettin worn out n torn. but that was bcoz i was wearing those loose fit jeans. nowadays i only wear slim fit and the bottoms of my jeans never touch d floor. my UJ slim fit is prob 3 inches longer than my ideal inseam length n it it never once touches the floor...n i wear them mostly with converse. IMHO jeans look better a few inches longer than formal pants.

dun worry it wont be extreme shrinkage. if ur pair isn't raw den d shrinkage will be minimal...prob at most an inch. cotton will always shrink. but UJ jeans have been sanforized to prevent extreme shrinkage. after washing d jeans d 1st time u will prob feel its a bit tighter especially around the waist n thigh area. dun worry after a few hrs of wearing it will stretch back out. however the length wont stretch back out if it shrinks.

thats y it always advisable to do alteration after 2-3 washes.

my pair of raw UJ shrank 1.5-2 inches in length. 1st wash it shrank about an inch. a few months later after 2nd wash it shrank another inch.

ur pair is slim fit so i dun think u gotta worry about the bottom touching the floor...unless u got really small feet LOL. my slim fit UJ is a size 34 and like i said it never ever touches d floor.

so u prob wont even need to do alteration. just wear it a few times n see how it goes.

the differences between the 3 fits is the shape from knee to ankle.

regular - basic straight cut jeans...knee to ankle all straight.

slim - tighter all over compared to regular fit. tapers gradually fr knee to ankle. leg opening is around 7.5 inches across.

skinny - waist to knee almost d same as slim. but knee to ankle has a more extreme taper. so d leg opening is around 6.5 to 7 inches across.

but also depends on waist size...bigger d waist d bigger d leg opening vice versa.

based on ur shoe size n waist size i can almost 99% guarantee u that ur jeans leg wont touch d floor or go under ur shoe. only thing u might not be used to is the bunching up of d jeans at d ankles due to the smaller leg opening. ppl call it "stacking" n some like the look. those expensive designer jeans like Dior Homme even come in inseam length of 38 inches just to create the stacking. UJ length is 34 inches.

if u dun like stacking u can roll d jeans up a few times. its kinda in style nowadays.

last resort u can go alter.

glad i could help man

a lot ppl fr styleforum rave about the vintage chino.

personally i like everything about the vintage chino except the cutting. i find it a little too baggy. i prefer the slim fit chino but the material n stitching seems not as good as the vintage chino.

call them at 03-5638 0296 n ask lo.

dun rub those stains. my beige chinos kena some stains and i went n rub using a bit of soap. most of the stain came out but that part of the chinos faded and is lighter than d rest.

im actually thinking of getting the slim fit chino but not sure how much shrinkage (if any) to expect when washing d 1st time.

i very nearly bought a pair of slim fit chinos today. had second thoughts coz the material n stitch was too thin. sked koyak when im out n about.

went to Dockers n got a pair of alpha khakis. material was much much thicker than Uniqlo n would be more durable. only drawback is its 100% cotton so it wont be as comfortable as Uniqlo slim fit chino.

i think i read d same article.

IMO the Uniqlo Slim Fit Chino would be more suited to be worn with a button down shirt or a polo n a pair of leather shoes instead of sneakers n a t shirt.

i got about 10 pairs of the boxer briefs. for RM 19.95 a pair the quality is alright. been wearing them almost daily for 8 months and they kept their shape well. but on 2 pairs i noticed that some parts of the elastic waist band has gone out of shape. mine r all regular rise boxer briefs. i bought one low rise boxer brief and it was really uncomfortable.

on second thought i think both are about the same as both also have 2% elastane. MNG chino is slightly softer with a washed finish. MNG has another range of 100% cotton chinos...those were thicker than Uniqlos

nope the taper in the MNG is much more extreme. they r like the opposite of each other. Uniqlo has a gradual proportionate taper. tried on 31 n 32 n i can feel the slimness especially around the butt n thigh area. they r similar to the Uniqlo slim fit straight jeans, with the jeans being slightly tighter.

whereas the MNG chino is loose around the thigh n butt area but tapers suddenly to a skinny leg opening. i tried a size 32 and the waist was loose. i then tried a size 30 and it was too tight...couldn't even button up. didn't like the fit...reminds me of Justin Bieber. but i did like the small details on the MNG chino...like contrasting stitching, nicer buttons n etc...overall feels less mass produced compared to Uniqlo.

i agree.

their QC's a bit off sometimes. when u try on something at UNiqlo and it fits u well, hang on to it, dun put it back n get a newer piece. happened to me a few times. sometimes same size but they fit differently. tried on slim fit chino d other day. i couldn't decide if i want it. went back an hour later n tried on another same piece (same siZe) just to be sure and it was looser. i gave up n bought a pair of dockers alpha khakis.

in 2 weeks i bought 20 of those RM19.90 t shirts in crew n vee neck. i probably got all the colours available LOL. some colours i even bought 2 or 3. one thing i like about the dry packaged tees is that they dun loosen up too much when worn. the 23% polyester did the trick.

their socks r ok too. i have 10 pairs in multiple bright colours already.

i think im addicted to Uniqlo. everytime i go in i end up buying at least a t shirt.

Paradigm is 5 mins away fr where i live. i remember that opening sale. a fren of mine went n bought 10 dry packaged tees n vees. now when we meet up very often wear same top LOL.

the white colour tees n vees a bit transparent. im looking for something a little thicker.

not the Vintage Flat Front Chino...i tried on those too and they r way too baggy. the slim fit chinos r of a much thinner softer cotton + elastane fabric mix n fit similar to the slim fit straight jeans.

i find they go better with polos n button down because of the fabric n the finer details like stitching. they look n feel a bit more tailored compared to vintage chino n dockers alpha khaki. but on the other hand sometimes i do feel wearing chinos n polo looks too uniform-ish. especially a black plain polo n beige chinos LOL. some guys i see can pull off the look but others just look like they r still in their uniform.

yup those r d tees im talking about.

vintage in cutting bcoz its fit more relaxed than the slim fit chino. looks and feel bit more casual too compared to the slim fit.

i guess the vintage chino would look alright with tees n button downs but the look will vary fr individual to individual and how fitted or loose u wear your clothes. example if u normally wear t shirts that r fitted then pairing it with vintage chino wont look very nice. IMO Alpha Khakis look the best with t shirts coz they have a more casual rugged look.

when i say uniforms i dont mean school uniforms. more like uniforms worn by ppl working at Royal Sporting House for example. usually a polo with chinos/jeans. that kind of vibe la if u know what i mean. some ppl pull it off some dont.

long sleeve oxford shirts look the best with chinos/jeans. flannel too. just dun get those office shirts n wear with jeans like every other guy out there. tucked in still ok. i seen some guys wear those shirts tucked out n they look like they wearing a blouse

edit: i Googled some pics of the vintage chino n they looked slimmer than those i tried. did bit more research n it looks like there r 2 types. Vintage Chino and Vintage Chino Flat Front Pants. both fit differently. Vintage chino is slim while the other one is relaxed. dun think i seen the vintage chino b4 in malaysia stores. so im guessing its been discontinued and only the Vintage Chino Flat Front Pants remain

i think Uniqlo has changed the fit of the dry packaged crew necks a bit. when i bought a few last year they fit me well.

bought a few last week n they seemed a few inches longer. i compared the older ones n d new ones i bought. sleeves on the new ones also seem bit looser.

overall both shirts look nice on u.

but both seem a bit too long.

how baggy r d sleeves ?

try sizing down n see
