Uniqlo - sizing?

[Anonymous]

I am normally a size medium 8/10 in most clothes but when I did the size assist on Uniqlo it said the XL would be tight on me. Does this brand run extra small? Or is their size assist feature not accurate?

I thought their sizing was inconsistent. Some shirts I tried were way too snug in my usual size, but the looser styles seemed huge.

I’ve only tried one style of linen pants, but they seem about right.

I wish they had free returns—I like some of their stuff a lot, but I do have to try on in person.

The size charts are accurate but I’m usually an XL but I’m an XXL at Uniqlo for women’s t-shirts. Just use your measurements and the charts and you’ll be okay.

I am similar (more 8 on top, 10 on bottom) and I usually buy an L at Uniqlo even for sweaters and Ts. Randomly I got some L undies and they were too tight.

It's not vanity sized. It's Asian sizing for Westerners.

Same. Runs very small.

I’m XS in most US brands but Uniqlo is too wide and too short for me in XS. I love their designs but the sizing is strange. The one category that fits me well are their puffers.

Just keep in mind that the size charts are for the garments, not body.
So you need to take your chest measurement, add however much ease you want (2-4” usually), then divide by 2. That’s what you want for “body width.”

The clothes look boxy but I guess that’s the style. From what I saw in the store the sizing varies by item and the fit you prefer.

Yep, my Asian husband looooves them, and I, the curvy Caucasian lady get an XXL in fitted items!
Their styles the last few seasons have a LOT of oversized boxiness to them, as a PP mentioned, so I haven't tried or purchased many things b/c that's not a good look for me!

The size assist is totally broken on there in recent months! I wear an XS or sometimes even an XXS in their clothing and no matter what it recommends medium! So weird.
