Popular Japanese fashion brand Uniqlo will soon open another store in the Chicago area, this time at a busy suburban mall.
The store, at Oakbrook Center Mall, will officially open to the public May 15, according to a release. The store comes as the brand continues to expand with new store openings across the U.S., including one that opened earlier this year on Michigan Avenue.
“Our strategy is about thoughtful growth – opening the right stores in the right places – while ensuring every location reflects our customer’s voices and delivers a meaningful, high-quality experience,” Fuminori Adachi, UNIQLO USA CEO said in a previous release about the Chicago-area store openings.
According to the release, the new stores will include self-checkout stations, alteration services and RE.UNIQLO donation bins. Some stores will also offer customizable t-shirt and tote-bag services, as well as embroidery.
In Oakbrook, opening weekend for Uniqlo will include a number of events and giveaways including Chicago-exclusive tote-bags filled with Garrett’s popcorn, treats from Stan’s Donuts, Japanese Calligraphy offers and more.
The grand opening weekend will also include a number of traditional Japanese drum performances, starting at 9 a.m. Friday. Doors will officially open to the public at 10 a.m., organizers said.
The Oakbrook store opening follows the grand opening of Uniqlo’s new Chicago flagship location, which opened at 600 N. Michigan Ave. in March to lines wrapped around the block. The stores join a Uniqlo store already open at Woodfield Mall.
The brand began in 1984 in Hiroshima, Japan, selling unisex casual wear and was originally called “Unique Clothing Warehouse.” The apparel brand is part of Fast Retailing Ltd., which also owns Theory, J Brand and Helmut Lang.
