MANILA –Japanese brand Uniqlo has just introduced its 2017 Spring/Summer Collection showcasing fashionable, comfy pieces that also highlighted innovation.

Uniqlo’s “LifeWear” tagline was patterned to the Japanese values of simplicity, quality and longevity, said Uniqlo Philippines Chief Operating Officer Katsumi Kubota during the collection’s press preview.

He said the brand is constantly innovating its products to give everyone better designs and comfort, plus more warmth and lightness in clothing.

These are what the public can look forward to the 2017 Spring/Summer collection:

Whether one is looking for distressed jeans, skinny jeans, etc., Uniqlo has a wide variety of denim designs made with quality materials.

* Airism

Sometimes, especially in the Philippines, wearing inner clothing makes one feel hotter. Airism is Uniqlo’s line of innovative innerwear which controls sweat.
