Uniqlo Sport Utility Wear

If there’s one thing that makes an outfit feel like a true win, it’s when it performs as well as it looks. That’s exactly what Uniqlo’s latest Sport Utility Wear collection is all about—and it got a stylish real-world road test last April 4, when Uniqlo invited media and friends to the MET Sports Center in Pasay City for an action-packed day of pickleball with none other than volleyball phenom Kiana Dy and actor-athlete Enchong Dee.With the sun out and energy high, Kianna and Enchong took the court dressed in full Sport Utility Wear gear, embodying the perfect marriage of comfort, movement, and modern athletic style. <div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1745223941292Photo 4_Kianna Dy_UNIQLO25SSSUW.jpg" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Volleyball star Kianna Dy in Uniqlo Sport Utility Wear while playing pickelball</div>“This isn’t just for athletes—it’s for anyone who wants to move freely and still look good doing it,” said Kianna Dy, who sported the Ultra Stretch Active Skort (₱1,290) with the AIRism Soft Cropped T-Shirt (₱790). The look was effortless yet sporty, breathable but fashion-forward. “I can literally wear this to a workout, then head to lunch with friends without needing to change. It’s that versatile.”<div> </div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1745224001051Photo 7_Enchong Dee_UNIQLO25SSSUW.jpg" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>Celebrity athlete Enchong Dee joins in on the fun in his choice of Uniqlo Sport Utility Wear</div>Enchong Dee, ever the active lifestyle advocate, wore the DRY-EX T-Shirt (₱790) and the Ultra Stretch Jogger Pants (₱1,490)—pieces designed for intense mobility and temperature control. “The fit is great, but what I love most is how lightweight it feels,” he shared. “I’m a huge fan of performance wear that doesn’t look like performance wear. This you can wear anytime, anywhere.”At the heart of the new Sport Utility Wear collection are four key performance features: UV protection, ultra stretch, moisture-wicking DRY-EX technology, and the brand’s signature AIRism fabric. All four were put to the test at the event, where even pickleball newbies found themselves darting across the court, diving for saves, and stretching their limits.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1745224100830Photo 12_Display_UNIQLO25SSSUW.jpg" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>A rack of Uniqlo pieces with UV Protection for your outdoor sports and hobbies</div>The collection’s UV Protection technology was especially relevant under the summer sun. With fabric that blocks over 90% of harmful UV rays (certified UPF 50+, the highest rating in UV protection), pieces like the AIRism UV Protection Full-Zip Hoodie (₱1,490) and the DRY-EX UV Protection Hoodie (₱1,490) became fast favorites. Stylish enough to wear on the street, but tough enough to defend your skin on even the brightest day—these are summer wardrobe essentials.The Ultra Stretch series, which includes Active Shorts (₱990 for men, ₱1,290 for women), Active Joggers, and Active Skorts. These pieces feature multidirectional stretch fabric, giving you full range of motion whether you’re lunging, sprinting, or just lounging.<div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1745224150091Photo 11_Display_UNIQLO25SSSUW.jpg" style="width:1000px" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/>DRY-EX—Uniqlo’s high-performance moisture-wicking pieces </div>And then there’s DRY-EX—Uniqlo’s high-performance moisture-wicking material that keeps you dry even during the most intense workouts. Worn by the athletes during their pickleball matches, DRY-EX tops and polos (starting at ₱790) proved their worth in keeping players fresh and comfortable throughout the action.Last but definitely not least is AIRism, Uniqlo’s fan-favorite innovation known for its smooth texture, light feel, and incredible breathability. From the AIRism Bra Sleeveless Top (₱990) to the Soft Ribbed Flare Leggings (₱1,490), AIRism pieces were designed for those who love to move but hate the clingy, sticky feel of sweat-prone fabrics.Uniqlo’s Sport Utility Wear doesn’t scream “gym wear.” With minimalist cuts, neutral colorways, and polished silhouettes, the collection blurs the line between performance gear and elevated casualwear. It’s perfect for workouts, yes—but also ideal for coffee runs, travel days, spontaneous hikes, weekend grocery trips, and casual hangouts. Uniqlo Sport Utility Wear is now available in stores and online, and it’s calling out to anyone who wants to look good, feel good, and move with ease—on the court and off.
