The first image of the much-anticipated fourth collection of +J (Jil Sander for Uniqlo) has landed on the Internet. It's Spring 2011, and although the entire collection has been kept tightly under wraps, French-born model Clement Chabernaud shows off a heavily pocketed hooded windbreaker in khaki, last season's go-to color.
Be patient, as the full collection won't arrive in stores just yet (timing is still TBA), but according to The Shophound, the remnants of +J's Fall 2010 men's collection are now on sale at the SoHo flagship. Be warned, though, the sale items will only work if you are a "slim tiny person," as what's left of the FW10 range is a selection of replenished stock in Japanese sizes.

Hopefully the powers that be at Uniqlo will take notice, and increase quantities of all items (and sizes) so the collection isn't sold out in nanoseconds. From the first image of Chabernaud, are we sensing an overall utilitarian theme to Sander's fourth Uniqlo collaboration? Only time will tell.—Yale Breslin
