#trending: Uniqlo dubs its Airism oversized T-shirt as 'The SG Uniform', some Redditors disagree
Uniqlo Singapore has tapped the ubiquity of its classic Airism oversized tee in the city to cheekily dub it "The SG Uniform" in a new ad for its bi-annual Thank You Festival which runs from June 17 to June 23.

The ad, found in the Uniqlo mobile app, shows a model dressed in the pink version of the Airism Cotton Crew Neck Oversized T-Shirt with the tagline "The SG Uniform". The popular T-shirt is currently on sale for the festival.

On Monday (June 20), Reddit user fatenumber posted a screenshot of the ad on r/singapore, sparking discussion amongst Redditors about what constitutes "the OG SG uniform" — a term for "original".

Many comments attested to the truth of the statement. One top comment, receiving over 100 likes, stated: "Whenever I go to Somerset, I see so many people wearing the same thing, sometimes top to bottom. Calling it uniform is very fitting."

Some shared their own shirt counts: "I have about three pieces of this in different colours and my boss has like six to seven pieces."
