Sold-Out Uniqlo x KAWS: Summer UT Collection Will Be Restocked In Singapore On 30 August 2019

Uniqlo x KAWS: Summer Re-Release In Singapore

Earlier this year, the Uniqlo x KAWS: Summer UT collection launched in Uniqlo stores worldwide to great fanfare. Singaporean fans lapped up the products, leaving local Uniqlo stores bereft of the coveted collection.

If you didn’t manage to grab these T-shirts the first time around, we have good news for you. Uniqlo will be restocking the designs at the end of the month on 30 August 2019.

Uniqlo has collaborated with the Brooklyn-based artist multiple times over the past few years. However, the hype for this collection went through the roof because it was purported to be the last.

Scalpers were also quick to pounce on this opportunity, with some reselling the product for as much as $40 on Carousell. It originally retailed for $19.90.

The collection included 12 adult T-shirts, 6 kids T-shirts and 4 tote bags.

The products currently available on its online store (screenshot above) will also not be restocked.

Violent fans

Earlier this year, footage of China customers rampaging Uniqlo stores and tearing the KAWS merchandise off mannequins went viral.

 

The restock is a lesson that you really don’t have to lose sleep or endanger yourself for the sake of consumer products.
