Uniqlo Blocktech Parka 4 Year Review (yikes)

Is the Uniqlo Blocktech Parka worth it? Is it even a parka? Probably not, and technically no.

In this video, I go over my experience with the jacket, its fabric properties (water repellency, windproofness, stretchiness, durability), hardware features, and fit.

Thank you for the review. I just purchased this parka while it was on sale, so I don't feel so bad about its potential drawbacks. But I know what to expect now.

[WJukeBox]

I can;t thank you enough for this review. I am looking for a replacement for Macpac jacket no longer made, and was considering this., not anymore.. Liked and subscribed. Thanks again

The inner laminate layer is made by synthetic resin so it won't be long lasting.

Good review for me to deciding to buy or not 🙌🏻

If my jacket is wrinkled and has lots of creases, how do I make it return to normal? Can this jacket be ironed?😢

Excellent review, quite complete. But if I may, for an absolutely complete review you could add the model number of the item (which allows viewers to directly go on the website with this reference number to see the item measurements for size). But for this item in particular, maybe they didnt change anything for 4 years so idk, but for things like sweaters etc from uniqlo they change the product, sizing etc depending of the years and even the materials (like the stripped jumper going from 100% supima cotton to 39% cotton)

How do you keep it so water repellent after 4 years? Can you give us the tip of washing and to maintain its water repellent?

[DevinAdint]

A rain jacket usually only goes down to the waist while the term parka isn't exclusive to cold weather parkas but may be used for a rain parka indicating that it should be longer than waist covering the hips and thighs. If this isn't longer than a jacket then it is misnamed.

how do I loosen the draw strings on the hoodie?

[louisansellharis]

How long till the jacket go flaky from the moment you buy?

[hurpaderpp]

a parka is just a jacket of longer length that you can sit on in wet conditions.

[Werday-bveh]

The only weakness of this jacket is that the hoodie is too small

[FinlayGillion]

Mine stopped beading water off after 2 wears? Is it fake Uniqlo

[nimeshkhistariya]

you said you wear a size small but how tall are you ?

[ekaj]
