Our favorite Japanese clothing brand Uniqlo and our favorite simulation video game Animal Crossing have teamed up to deliver a fresh line of comfy and cozy wear this season.
Uniqlo’s Animal Crossing collection features plenty of designs taken from some of the iconic characters in its latest franchise, New Horizons.
For example, the game’s air transportation service Dodo Airlines (DAL) now has its own mini merchandise collection with the DAL logo printed in black and white tees. Uniqlo’s signature loungewear, the Steteco Shorts, has been filled with a cool pattern of DAL text logos made especially for kids.
These Uniqlo tie-dye shirts can be worn by the family, especially if all of them are avid Animal Crossing players! The pink one is made for women and shows Tom Nook on its left chest print. Meanwhile, the green tee is made for toddlers, showing off Timmy and Tommy Nook. Lastly, the yellow Uniqlo tie-dye shirt showcases an embroidered version of the twin tanukis (Japanese raccoon dogs).
