The new Uniqlo x Theory clothing collection is all about functional yet sophisticated designs

There’s a lot to love about the all-new Uniqlo x Theory clothing collection. Officially launching Friday, May 7, online and in stores, the collaboration may seem uncharacteristic for both brands at first glance.

But that’s exactly the beauty of the new apparel line, as it perfectly marries that functional, Japanese casual wear appeal with Theory’s sophisticated New York style.

The collection will also feature some firsts, as seen in the introduction of the Ultra Light Jacket which is fashioned in the discerning style of Theory for the first time. Using incredibly lightweight, stretchable and quick-drying material, the coat allows for easy transitions between work and play.

There’s also the Ultra Light Pants—available in full-length and shorts—that can be paired with a jacket. While the pants offer a drawcord waist for a relaxed fit, it also boasts a front button and belt loops to ensure a stylish finish.

Ladies can also expect fashionable yet comfortable designs such as the Women Theory Ultra Stretch Sleeveless Jumpsuit and Women Theory Ultra Stretch A Line Short Sleeve Dress.
