Uniqlo and Sanrio announced a new run of Hello Kitty UT t-shirts will appear worldwide. These will be four women’s size designs. They’ll show up in Japan first at the beginning of December 2026 for 1,990 yen each. We’ll then see all four designs appear in North America in the middle of December 2026 for $29.90 each. These pieces will appear both in-stores and online once they’re available.
With each of these four designs, Hello Kitty’s ribbon seems to be a focal point or feature changes to make the bow look a little different than usual. The blue shirt has a blue outline of the character and a bow with white polka dots on it. The red one featured an embroidered version of her and her face, with the bow being a darker shade. The black shirt has the character peaking over the left side of a large version of her bow. The white one has her holding a huge red ribbon in front of her face. All of these appear in sizes XXS through XXL in North America.
Here’s how all four of the new Sanrio t-shirts will look when they show up at Uniqlo worldwide next month. Each one only features designs on the front and don’t have any additional elements on the backs of the shirts.
Sanrio t-shirts are always showing up at Uniqlo stores as part of the UT graphic tee line. There was a line for Hello Kitty’s 50th anniversary, for example. Another featured multiple mascots with a beach trip look to them. The store’s also featured sweatshirts and pants with the characters.
The Hello Kitty Uniqlo UT t-shirts will show up in Japan and North America in December 2026, though they’ll be in Japanese stores first at the beginning of the month.
