Previous Uniqlo character collaborations caused a frenzy

Earlier this month, Uniqlo launched its final collaboration with Brooklyn street artist KAWS. The collection featured Sesame Street characters and KAWS’s original character Companion on the T-shirts.

The T-shirts almost immediately sold out in Singapore and were quickly resold on Carousell for twice the price.

Footage of what went down at Uniqlo stores in China went viral internationally as hordes of fans flooded the stores upon opening. They tussled, fought and even ripped the clothing off mannequins in an attempt to capture some Uniqlo x KAWS merchandise for themselves.

Check out the footage below:
