Uniqlo Evangelion 3.0 Apparel (?)

riffraff11235 · Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2013 1:41 pm Post subject: Uniqlo Evangelion 3.0 Apparel (?)

When my friend and I went to the Uniqlo store in NYC last June, we found a whole table full of t-shirts featuring designs from the first two Rebuild movies. We're going to the city again tomorrow, and one of our planned stops is this same store. Would anyone happen to know if Uniqlo has produced any Q-themed apparel since the movie came out? I'm pretty confident that they haven't made any yet, but I just wanted to be sure.

If they have, it's not been advertised on their website. I know there were at least 2 instances that I mentioned them on the twitter feed:

tweet-body
— twitter-user (@username) date

It was a summer-only campaign so they're not marketing that anymore.

Yeah, they do. My girlfriend got a grey tee with 'Q' on it (Probably the best out of the lot), and I got a red Unit-2'β shirt for my brother.

This was in Japan though mind...

yeah, been out for some time in japan. At least in the UK, it took a while (years?) for the eva 2.0 stuff to arrive. So your best bet for immediate relief is sellers through ebay, to be had around £20+

I just recently manged to import a 2.0 shirt which I take as being pretty lucky since they have not been in production for awhile now. I too wonder when the 3.0 shirts will finally make their worldwide appearance... or even to be available to import.

Damn, they stopped making them? I saw them at Uniqlo's flagship store in June, but I didn't think they were going out of print anytime soon.

They are no longer listed on either the U.S. or Japanese websites. There is probably some left over stock floating around somewhere, but with nothing being listed on Uniqlo's U.S. and Japanese websites the last time I looked, it's pretty safe to say they are out of production.

Had never heard of this store before, just did a quick search and glad to say they have a branch where I live in Japan (Okinawa), I'll have to stop by soon!

I've been waiting for the Eva shirts to show up on the US website but no luck there, although they do have Ghost in the Shell, Tiger & Bunny, and One Piece. My sister scored for me the blue GiTS shirt of Section 9 from the SF store but her latest report is that they are now out. The SF store opened in the fall so who knows if they would have stocked 3.0 shirts if they had opened earlier.

Ebay has some from both 2.0 and 3.0. Just landed a 2.0 shirt of a scene of Rei from 1.0 for $0.15 although it's for collecting purposes since it's size S. A couple of the ebay sellers stock multiple sizes of one design but no guarantees that they will still have one in your size for a good price that isn't too inflated above the 1,500 Y price tag.

There is also a HK based website named Kidsamurai that I was hoping would stock 3.0 shirts since they did for 2.0 but they never came in. They are sold out of all earlier shirts but you can use their website as a historical reference.

The 2.0 shirt I just imported a few weeks back came from kidsamurai... the one I got was probably one of the last ones they had in stock. I have been keeping an eye of their site for any announcement on 3.0 shirts as well. hopefully sometime soon they will have some in stock.

Otherwise I have no clue where else to look other than ebay.

Uniqlo just started their E-Commerce, several months after the shirts were released unfortunately. I used to live in Brooklyn, so I bugged a lot of friends there to pick them up for me.

The quality of the shirts are really nice, and the graphics don't look just plastered/ironed onto the shirt..I've honestly never worn them yet, and I got them last year during the spring. Too afraid someone will come flying at me with handfuls of spaghetti sauce.
