Uniqlo Announced Collab With BTS On a BT21 Collection
BTS ARMY REJOICE! A collaboration between BT21 — the animated characters created by the K-pop group — and the Japanese retailer Uniqlo has just been announced. The collab will feature 12 different t-shirt designs with the BT21 logo and characters front and center. Yes, that’s right, the adorably-fluffy and food-loving RJ and dance-lover Mang (whose real identity remains a mystery) will be featured on Uniqlo tees! We predict that these tees will sell like hotcakes. Fans online are already anticipating the large swarms of crowds that will ascend upon Uniqlo stores later this month.
The collaboration was created in conjunction with LINE FRIENDS, the super-cute characters based on the stickers from the mobile messaging app Line. TATA, VAN, KOYA, RJ, SHOOKY, MANG, CHIMMY and COOKY all make appearances on the designs. Plus, LINE FRIENDS just opened a store in Hollywood, where, for a limited time, you can get BT21 sticker packs and bags with purchases over $50 and $100.
The T-shirts will be available in men’s sizing XS – 3XL and cost $14.90 (budget friendly!). You can purchase the tees online and in-store at Uniqlo locations worldwide on June 21. Some of our favorite picks from the drop include a Commes Des Garcons inspired TATA heart-tee, a millennial pink COOKY tee with the message “PINKISH TOUGH BUNNY,” and a “Passionate Chimmy” tee that’s reminiscent of the artist Keith Haring’s designs (who also has a Uniqulo series).
Fans are gearing up for the drop by sharing reaction memes on Twitter and mourning their soon-to-be-empty wallets. (With a price of $14.99, who can resist getting two tees??)
Set an alert on your phone for June 21st because these items are sure to sell out fast.
