If you head up to the top floor of the newly opened Uniqlo Covent Garden store, there’s a whole section of specially designed tube themed t-shirts that are exclusive to that one store.

The t-shirts come in a range including the tube roundel, tube map, and designs inspired by the London Underground’s heritage posters.

Apart from the range of clothing though, there’s also a London Underground display, with items from the nearby London Transport Museum, examples of moquette, and also moquette benches to sit on while your better half picks out t-shirts to buy.

The adult t-shirts seemed to be around £20 each.

A sign nearby also said they have tube branded tote bags, but the ones on display were all blank, so maybe a product that will be arriving later.

The Uniqlo Covent Garden store is on Long Acre.

The tube themed t-shirts don’t appear to be available online, only in the Covent Garden store.

SUPPORT THIS WEBSITE

This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.

It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.

Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

If you like what you read on here, then please support the website here.

Thank you

    Was passing by this store when they had their grand opening a couple weeks ago. They had a traditional Japanese drum band going, one of the larger drums set off a lot of car alarms in the area. Good stuff.

    Visited last night and bought a T-shirt as a gift.

    It seems from signage that the shirts (and maybe bags) can be printed to order (unsure of time needed for this), if your choice of graphic and size is not available. I suspect they are topping up daily based on sales while these remain on sale.

    The bags are kind-of pricey.
