Outerwear built for busy days and bold plays

Whether you’re heading to the gym, commuting to work, or running weekend errands, Uniqlo wants you to dress for it all — with comfort and ease.

The Japanese clothing brand launched its new Sport Utility Wear collection on April 4 at the MET Park Sports Center in Pasay City, bringing together media, sports enthusiasts, and celebrity guests for a morning of movement and play.

Actor Enchong Dee and volleyball player Kim Kianna Dy were also introduced as the faces of the new line.

“Whatever sport or game you play, you can rely on Uniqlo’s Sport Utility Wear to give you confidence and comfort,” said Uniqlo Philippines COO Geraldine Sia. “But it’s not just for athletes — it’s also perfect for people on the go like me.”

Designed with performance fabrics such as Dry-EX, Ultra Stretch, and AIRism, the collection highlights pieces that support an active lifestyle without sacrificing style.

Many items also offer UV protection, making them ideal for outdoor activities or long days under the sun.

At the launch, guests were invited to experience the collection in action with a pickleball session — a fitting introduction to clothes made for movement.

For Dee, the collection fits seamlessly into his daily routine.

“I always wear jogger pants and basic tees—they’re part of my regular rotation,” he said, noting how the Ultra Stretch Active Shorts and Sports EX shirt remind him of tennis icon Roger Federer’s practical-yet-polished style.

“It’s not just for when you’re working out. You can wear this to meet friends or grab coffee. That’s what I like about it.”

Dy also shared how she finds the line useful beyond the court.

“The fabric dries quickly and doesn’t feel sticky when you’re active,” she said. “But I’d still wear it even when I’m just out for errands or a casual day.”

Sia said the goal of the Sport Utility Wear line is to offer versatile options for different lifestyles.

“It’s made for students, professionals, travelers, and even for people who just want to be comfortable while chilling at home,” she said.

With its mix of practicality, performance, and everyday appeal, the collection underlines Uniqlo’s commitment to making LifeWear that moves with you.

“Life is better when you can move freely,” Sia added. “And that’s exactly what we want to bring with this collection.”
