YOASOBI Uniqlo graphic tees
Uniqlo’s UT collection is a line of exclusive graphic tee collaborations with popular shows, brands, and celebrities. This coming July, the famous music duo YOASOBI, comprising Ayase and ikura, will be collaborating with Uniqlo.
Under the collaboration, Uniqlo will be releasing T-shirts that are as beautiful as YOASOBI’s story-inspired music. Boast your love for them by donning the graphic tees with designs that draw references to YOASOBI’s aesthetic music videos.
Graphic tees inspired by 7 YOASOBI songs
The UT collection will consist of graphic tees inspired by 7 of YOASOBI’s songs. These T-shirts mainly feature iconic scenes and visuals from the duo’s music videos. Both adult and kid sizes are available, but designs vary.

YOASOBI’s debut single, Racing into the Night (夜に駆ける; Yoru Ni Kakeru), tells the story of 2 lovers taking their lives together. As this is the duo’s most popular release to date, the upcoming collaboration tees inspired by the song will predictably sell out fast.

There are 3 different designs inspired by YOASOBI’s 3rd single, Halzion (ハルジオン). The adult sizes come in either black or white, while the graphic tee for the kids is in pastel green.

The T-shirt inspired by Probably (たぶん; Tabun) has a calming purple shade and features a grid collage of visuals from the music video.

YOASOBI’s 5th single, 群青 (Gunjō), literally means “ultramarine”. Thus, the T-shirt inspired by the song aptly features an elaborate ultramarine-coloured print on the back. There’s also a small circular blue logo on the front, so that the T-shirt does not look too plain.

YOASOBI’s upcoming summer release, 三原色 (Sangenshoku), also got a special T-shirt design. The graphic tee stays faithful to the song title, which directly translates to “3 primary colours”, by having a design comprising only red, blue, and green.

The graphic tees for Haruka (ハルカ) and Encore (アンコール) are only available in kid sizes. The T-shirt for Haruka is in pink and features dreamy visuals related to the moon. This is because Haruka is inspired by Osamu Suzuki’s novel 月王子 (Tsuki Ōji; Moon Prince).
Meanwhile, the T-shirt for Encore has various musical imagery – a piano logo on the front and a guitar design at the back – set against a simple white background.

Finally, you can tell the world that you’re a fan of YOASOBI by getting their “YOASOBI” T-shirt. The design printed on the shirt is the iconic key visual that was released a week before YOASOBI’s debut in November 2019. Note that the designs for the adult and kid sizes are different.
