Let me explain. Regarding the product I'm selling, ・【Cotton Linen】Marks & Spencer Striped Band Collar Shirt I wrote, "I can confidently say, if you're buying Uniqlo, you should buy this instead." ※Sold on 2/7 You might be wondering, "Then why are you selling a similar Uniqlo shirt!" Let me explain. Each has its own merits. ■ Difference in Cotton and Linen Ratio ・Marks & Spencer (M&S): 70% cotton, 30% linen ・Uniqlo: 47% cotton, 53% linen Uniqlo has a higher linen ratio. M&S has parts woven like mesh, so it's probably cooler. However, if you want to enjoy the linen-like wrinkles, Uniqlo, with its higher linen content, is recommended. By the way, neither will wrinkle excessively without ironing, and both have a nice texture. ■ Difference in Pattern M&S has a pattern, Uniqlo doesn't. With a pattern, the shirt alone can easily complete a coordinated outfit, but layering is difficult. However, without a pattern, the range of layering expands. You can wear a patterned T-shirt underneath or a patterned outer layer on top. In summary: ・Want to be stylish with just one shirt → M&S ・Want to enjoy layering → Uniqlo ■ Difference in Rarity M&S is a British brand. It's not something you can easily get. So, even though it's machine washable, you might be a little careful, thinking, "What if I get meat sauce on it?" On the other hand, Uniqlo is a domestic brand and releases similar products every year. Therefore, you can handle it without worry, thinking, "If it gets dirty, I'll just buy another one." You might think, "Then Uniqlo is fine," but the feeling of excitement of "wearing special clothes from a British brand" can only be experienced with M&S. It's a tough choice. That's about it. Which one would you buy? Of course, buying both is also a great option, a very good option. (Sorry if the M&S is already sold) I've worn it about 3 times, and there are no visible stains, so it's in good condition. Please understand that this is a personal inspection.
