Helpful Tips for Shopping at UNIQLO Korea

1. Size up before you buy
   Korean sizes tend to run smaller than US or EU standards. Always try it on if possible.
2. Use the UNIQLO Korea app
   You can get app-exclusive coupons and early access alerts during sale periods.
3. Avoid peak hours
   During big sales, stores can get crowded in the afternoon. Visiting in the morning is recommended.

Shopping Tips

• Prioritize functional fabrics like AIRism, DRY-EX, and linen blends for maximum comfort.
• Visit stores or the online shop early in the day — hot items tend to sell out fast.
• Use the UNIQLO app to track restocks or get notifications about new launches.
