One Piece Announces New Uniqlo Collection

The Straw Hat Pirates have once again teamed up with the fashion producers at Uniqlo for a new clothing line.

In One Piece's long history, the Straw Hat Pirates have done something that many other anime characters don't, they've changed their clothing. With the arrival of new storylines, Luffy and company will routinely sport new outfits to "blend in" with their surroundings. Such has been the case with the final saga as the Straw Hats have worn futuristic attire in the presence of Dr. Vegapunk. Now, the Shonen Swashbuckling series is once again teaming up with Uniqlo to create its own fashion brand that spans the times of the East Blue Saga to the Future Island Arc.

One Piece fans might not have much longer to witness new outfits that Luffy and the Thousand Sunny gang wear. Eiichiro Oda hasn't been shy about the fact that both the manga and anime adaptation are in the final saga for the series, as Luffy's quest to become the king of the pirates is looking to end following a decades-long run. While the challenges have never been greater for the Straw Hat Pirates, each member has come a long way and Monkey has the ability to rely on his ultimate transformation, Gear Fifth, when it comes to battling evil pirates and the World Government.
