Following the uniqlo undercover UU lookbook, we can now give you a closer look at the products from the line. From Selectism – “March 16, 2012 sees the delivery of the first collaborative collection from UNIQLO and Undercover, two very well known Japanese labels that come together for a family style affair, as seen in their lookbook.

As we’ve seen over the past year, the GYAKUSOU collection by Undercover translates the Nike running design language into Jun Takahashi’s world, expanding on its core product with innovative, lightweight, waterproof, breathable fabrics in “less-but-better” cuts. An all together techincal, functional and unique new take on running gear by runners.

The good news is of course that the collection continues for Holiday 2011. Here we preview a 3/4 sleeve GYAKUSOU t-shirt that mixes Dri-Fit with wool in a neutral and mild color palette that mirrors the park and city environments where GIRA train.
