UNIQLO Malaysia is bringing ZO&FRIENDS into its UT lineup on July 6, 2026, with a new graphic T-shirt collection built around the charming character world from global character brand LINE FRIENDS.
The collection introduces ZOA, A&NE, AKI and ZAKI through four women’s UT designs priced at RM59.90. The full lineup will be available at UNIQLO stores across Malaysia and through the official UNIQLO online store.
A playful LINE FRIENDS world on everyday UT tees
ZO&FRIENDS has grown around the catchphrase “Perfectly imperfect friends”. At the centre of the collection is ZOA, a cloud cat who may seem aloof but is deeply caring. ZOA is joined by A&NE, a lovable busybody whose warm meddling brings smiles, and AKI and ZAKI, colourful bubbles born from ZOA’s footprints.
Rather than treating the characters as simple logo prints, the new UT collection leans into their personality and everyday moments. The graphics show the characters looking after one another, turning the collection into a soft, cheerful wardrobe piece for fans of cute character fashion and casual Japanese-style graphic tees.
Watercolour graphics and suede-style print details
The collection uses two visual directions. Some designs feature watercolour-style artwork with pastel tones, while others use suede-style prints built from small dot illustrations to create a subtle three-dimensional effect.
UNIQLO says this is the world’s first T-shirt collection to express ZO&FRIENDS through a variety of different art styles, giving fans a choice between softer illustrated looks and more tactile graphic treatments.
Why this UT drop stands out
The appeal is in how approachable the collection feels. Instead of leaning only on loud character branding, the designs balance soft colours, small details and everyday wearable silhouettes. That makes the shirts easy to style with denim, skirts or relaxed weekend outfits while still giving fans a recognisable ZO&FRIENDS piece.
The collaboration also fits UNIQLO UT’s broader role as a graphic T-shirt platform for culture, illustration and character IP. For Malaysian shoppers, the July release gives fans a new lifestyle-fashion option that is affordable, collectible and available through mainstream retail channels.
