Uniqlo Heat-Tech Warms My Heart

November 13, 2008, 2:07 pm
I wasn’t initially on board with the whole Uniqlo thang; their stuff always seemed a little too minimalist/classic for my slightly ridiculous taste. But when my uber-fashion-forward pal Ellie went nutso for their Heat Tech Tops, I decided to give the brand another whirl.

Weather-wise, I’m not the most practical of shoppers. I loathe wool sweaters, bulky coats and Uggs; I think cashmere’s played out and overrated. This means I’m perpetually cold.
Uniqlo’s Heat Tech Top doesn’t just take the edge off the chill – the rayon-blend “efficiently absorbs water vapor from the body and converts it to heat,” i.e. it kinda makes you sweat a little, but in a good way. It’s thin enough that it can be worn under anything, cute enough to stand alone, and awesome enough that it’s turned me into an advertising whore. And it’s a mere $10.35.

I bought four; I have a feeling I’ll be back for more.

    I LOVE the Heat Tech camis in nude. I bought two in London and they’re so thin but so effective–the perfect layer to wear under my sheer tops.

    What a GREAT post. Thank you SO much for the heads up on Uniqlo’s Heat Tech stuff. You just gave me a great idea for a Christmas gift for my BF, and I can’t wait to order some items for myself. I might actually be able to make it through a Chicago winter without freezing my tush off!
