it's from canceling orders or returning items but since those items are new so it's more likely canceling orders which uniqlo relisted.
That's why it has very few items.

It it more likely that they are simply relocating stocks from physical stores around the country. It is unlikely that they can have so many and such cancelled orders to cover full restocks, even if it doesn't last long. They are probably asking their locations to confirm stocks and block them until they are sold or something similar.

$59.95 AUD in Melbourne; pretty much all sizes in both shirts available.

I am curious. Why is the price for the same Uniqlo RF is always more expensive in both Australia and EU than in the US?

In Australia the reason is the same as the reason why everything not produced in Australia is more expensive, and in Europe it is because the Euros have more Euros than USDs.

Damn today only an off white in xl shows up. Way off of a green in S that I was hoping for...

I just got an XS and i am very happy with it. The best breathable material I've seen so far from uniqlo.

This is still so bizarre. They had the Roland Garros and Australian Open ones last year. But not this time...

Yeah, seems like they are limiting the production even further.
No headband, wristband, jacket, bags.... why? Mind boggling.

Been watching highlights from Qatar and looking at photos and looks like Roger's Uniqlo shirt has the Uniqlo logo sewn on rather than the crappy printed logo we get on the retail version. It has a shine to it that the retail version doesn't have when lights hit it and doesn't bend when the shirt bends like the retail version. Same goes for the logos on his sleeves too, when he bends the left arm on a forehand, at some angles you can see they sit on top of the shirt and have depth and thickness to them rather than the flat printed logos.

Wow good eye. That looks much better. That said I got the off white in the mail today and wow the fabric is incredible. And it's got that different stitched patterns mesh fabrics that some later Nike RF shirts did. They really should have made more of these and the shorts. For the price these clothes destroy the competition.Been watching highlights from Qatar and looking at photos and looks like Roger's Uniqlo shirt has the Uniqlo logo sewn on rather than the crappy printed logo we get on the retail version.

I actually prefer mine to not be embroidered/patched, as I will feel it all the time while wearing the garment, because it is relatively big. It is not subtle as a the Lacoste crocodile or something, it is a block logo of substantial size. That has got to be noticeable. Interesting nonetheless and a kind of expected. They do embroidered logos on their socks and wristbands, no reason why they can't do that on polos just as easily.

How about an option without logo ? I think it ruins this otherwise cool design, I mean the reason I like Uniqlo for one is they don't slap logos on their clothes like Ralph Lauren or Nike

I would say you're in the minority that do not want the logo. I like Uniqlo with logo because of the unique logo. You can purchase Uniqlo clothing without the logo
volleynets

That's a great point. My friend who is a fashion designer said the same thing. The logo being a big red square or two squares isn't that cool. The shirt would look cleaner without.
And the rest of the Uniqlo stuff in the store has no logos!

Or at least an option without the red box, I'm fine with it saying uniqlo in white OR like it's done on the headbands with 2 small red squares.

So I got large in both the green and off-white. It's weird, but the Green feels smaller than the White, even though they're the same size... Just thought that was odd.
Materials are good, though. Seems much better quality than prior RF kit releases. I can only imagine how good the shorts are... too bad we'll never know.

As noted before, I can see the appeal in the dark green shirt (the arm bands on the white shirt are discordantly wide and dark) but the shorts are predominantly a completely unrelated colour which doesn’t appear to be referenced on either shirt. Really not what you’d call a ‘kit’, except in the generic sense.

The color of the shorts matches the thick arm band of each shirt. Or the dark green shorts match the entire dark green shirt

Just got the white version I ordered. This is my 4th Federer Uniqlo shirt (I also bought the black, dark red and pink ones).
I agree with previous posters that this version is perhaps the best so far. I like the stiching pattern they used for this. And the off-white color is so much better than regular white.

OK. Now the Federer polos are sold out almost everywhere. Interesting, I didn't think that his return will generate THAT much interest, considering how his previous collection stayed for almost 2 months up in many places.

Do you have photos you could share by chance? I'm debating jumping on the off-white. First time ever I'm slightly interested in the uniqlo offering.
Just recieved my very first Uniqlo shirt in off-white colourway. Amazing shirt and very good quality, I am very surprised and happy with the purchase. Do you guys belive there is a chance that Uniqlo will release green shorts too? Maybe this will be Rogers outfit til RG and then they will have enough time to give people what they want

I myself still prefer Djokovic Uniqlo over Federer Uniqlo. Djokovic Uniqlo has collar on the shirt that I can't find with Federer Uniqlo. I wear Djokovic Uniqlo when I play golf because the shirt has collar. I can't wear Federer Uniqlo when playing golf because it is considered not gentleman like due to no collar on the Federer Uniqlo shirt. The material on the Djokovic uniqlo is also better than Federer Uniqlo, IMHO.

Well, you missed out on the outfits where Fed's Uniqlo had a collar.
I can't say anything about the materials of the Djokovic Uniqlo line, as I don't have any experience with it. I have experience with the RG 2019 outfit and the Wimbledon 2019 shorts and they are all excellent quality (as are all accessories from Uniqlo that I have bought so far).

The colour combination has been used a lot in more, shall we say, appreciative settings:
Couldn't really be bothered with discussing the prejudices of some people, just because they don't know better.

I don't really post pics but I can send one to your email if you let me know what it is. But you might be better off taking a look at the pics on the Uniqlo Japanese website. If you paste フェデラー in the search box that will pull up Federer's stuff.

Well, I went on the Japanese Uniqlo site and ordered the Federal green polo and the Nishikori off-white polo from last year. Both were on sale with Nishikori's being 50% off, so I figured what the heck.
I also ordered the dark green/white lettering Federer cap. It appears I ordered literally the last one as I went back to look at the cap after ordering and it said it was sold out. I guess I got lucky.

Managed to get everything but the socks. Those sold out almost immediately, I think?

I can guarantee you that someone out there bought that outfit and probably colour-co-ordinated it right down to matching sweatbands
There is no accounting for taste.@jmacdaununder2 called it the "train wreck kit", which sums it up pretty nicely.

The trick for Uniqlo is to say they are in stock but within a minute say they are sold out, until we realize that in reality there were no socks.

That is true. That is why Rolls Royce has been painting their cars in dual tones of the same palette as the colour combination in question for the last 90 years or so, but how would you know what is a good taste, when you haven't been around such?

Maybe that is the case until you realise that some people buy their socks because of their quality in batches of 20-30 pairs.
