Uniqlo

We list Uniqlo on 3 of our 25 baby clothing pages: bodysuits, tops, outerwear. For every type we open the brand's own site, pick one real product as the example, and write down its name, regular price, sizes and fabric the way the brand states them. For example, its bodysuits example is the Baby Long Sleeve Bodysuit | Ribbed at $7.9; its tops example is the Baby AIRism Cotton T-Shirt; its outerwear example is the Baby PUFFTECH Washable Parka at $39.9. Each type name above links to a page where every brand that makes that piece is listed together, with its price tier, sizes and fabrics.

Uniqlo is sold through: Own site, Uniqlo stores. The brand's own site is uniqlo.com. We class Uniqlo as "big store / mass market", which describes the kind of company it is, not its quality. Every example on this page links straight to that product, so you land on the item and not on a search page. The prices we show are regular prices read on the day we checked. Stores run sales often, so the price at checkout can be lower than the one shown here. Stock and sizes change by season, and a print we link to may sell out; the same style usually comes back in a new color or print.

Most Uniqlo listings we checked give the size range as: Age0-3M(50) to Age18-24M(90). Sizes differ by piece. The bodysuits example is listed in Age6-12M(70), Age12-18M(80), Age18-24M(90). The outerwear example is listed in Age12-18M(80), Age18-24M(90), Age3(100). Baby sizes are not standard from brand to brand. Two brands can put the same age on the label and cut the garment to different weights and lengths, and some brands size by height in centimeters instead of by months. Go by Uniqlo's own size chart, which gives the weight and length each size is made for, and compare it with your baby's current measurements instead of age alone. We do not test fit, so we do not say whether a brand runs small or large.

The fabrics Uniqlo names most often on the listings we checked: Cotton blend (95% cotton, 5% spandex body on the ribbed long sleeve bodysuit). On the product pages, the bodysuits example lists "Body: 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex/ Other Fabric: 100% Cotton" and the outerwear example lists "Face: 100% Polyester (45% Uses Recycled Polyester Fiber) / Filling: Body: 100% Polyester (". We did not see a GOTS or OEKO-TEX certificate stated on the Uniqlo products we checked. That does not mean none exist; it means the pages we read did not state one. Fabric can change between styles and seasons, so read the fiber content on the product page before you buy.

Regular prices on the Uniqlo examples we checked run from $7.9 (Baby Long Sleeve Bodysuit | Ribbed) to $39.9 (Baby PUFFTECH Washable Parka). We place Uniqlo in the budget-friendly tier. The tier compares a brand's regular prices with the other brands we list; it is not a judgment of quality. A regular price is the full price the brand lists. We never record a sale price, because sales start and end without notice and would make brands look cheaper or dearer than they usually are. The "Where Uniqlo prices sit" section on this page shows each priced example against the same piece from every other brand we list.

Uniqlo's US baby section covers newborn through toddler ages with bodysuits, outerwear and socks. A ribbed bodysuit was listed at $7.90. Uniqlo is based in Japan. On ownership, our note reads: Subsidiary of Fast Retailing. We class it as "big store / mass market". Where a company is based is not the same as where its clothes are made. We do not label any brand as made in a particular country unless the brand states it for the product. To check whether Uniqlo has recalled a product, search the brand name on the CPSC recall list.
