UNIQLO Announces Four New Designs for PEACE FOR ALL Charity T-Shirt Project

T-shirts featuring messages of peace from three clever new collaborators, available from September 26

Global apparel retailer UNIQLO today announces the worldwide release of four new designs for its ongoing PEACE FOR ALL charity T-shirt project. The PEACE FOR ALL project features UNIQLO graphic T-shirts with designs expressing a wish for peace, provided voluntarily by collaborators with close ties to UNIQLO who support the aim of "take action with a desire for world peace." All profits from the T-shirt sales are donated to international humanitarian organizations. The latest items will be available from Friday, September 26th.

The new collaborators are Club for the Future, a non-profit organization inspiring future generations through space-focused activities; Dr. Tasuku Honjo, recipient of the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his contributions to cancer immunotherapy research; and Ryo Ichiriki, world champion Go player and journalist.

Club for the Future has contributed two new designs created by astronauts Gary Lai, Leland Melvin, and Sian Proctor. Based on the words ‘connection,’ ‘hope,’ and ‘belonging’, these designs convey the importance of seeing the Earth as a single entity without borders, and sharing a common vision to foster a better future for the next generation. With his design, Dr. Honjo shares the words that have guided him throughout his career: curiosity, courage, challenge, confidence, concentrate, and continuation. Finally, Mr. Ichiriki’s design quotes one of the 20th century’s greatest Go players, Go Seigen: "GO is HARMONY." The design expresses his desire for a peaceful society, which requires a spirit of harmony that accepts diversity and maintains the balance of the whole.

UNIQLO, together with people around the world, will continue to expand this initiative in a desire for a future in which all people can live safely, and a hope for world peace.

Collaborator’s comment

Club for the Future  (Non-profit Organization)

From Space, Earth has no borders. The reflections of astronauts Leland Melvin, Sian Proctor, and Gary Lai are depicted in the space-themed PEACE FOR ALL shirts. They highlight the transformative power of viewing Earth from above, inspiring a sense of unity and hope. By recognizing that Earth is a singular, harmonious entity without borders, we can nurture a collective vision for a peaceful future.

This is not only a wish for peace but also a call to action, encouraging everyone to embrace the shared responsibility we hold in protecting our planet and fostering a brighter future for generations to come.

PEACE FOR ALL. SPACE FOR EARTH.

Tasuku Honjo (Physician-Scientist)


Cherish your curiosity. Have the courage to tackle difficult problems, and have confidence that you can do it. Concentrate all of your energy, and continue without giving up. You can change the times.



Ryo Ichiriki (Go player)


"GO is HARMONY” is a quote from one of the greatest Go players of the 20th century, Go Seigen. Overall balance is always important: not only to communicate your own thoughts, but also to understand your opponent's point of view. Today's international community is losing its tolerance towards diversity. Conflict is frequent and uncertainty is rife. What is needed today is a spirit of harmony.

From freshie to grad: vivo Y29 stays smooth all throughout college


College is a journey of deadlines, projects, and milestones, and that’s why the vivo Y29 is the perfect partner built to stay smooth from the first day of class to graduation march.

The vivo Y29 is marketed with a “50-Month Smooth Experience” guarantee, meaning it has passed vivo’s rigorous laboratory tests designed to measure performance stability over more than four years.

This longevity is achieved through the optimization of software, hardware, and other comprehensive technologies, ensuring the phone stays responsive, smooth, and lag-free long after the excitement of the first semester fades.

Smooth start to campus life

The first day of college comes with anticipation, new surroundings, and loads of information to keep track of. The Y29’s 120Hz high refresh rate display ensures scrolling through schedules, campus maps, and student portals feels fluid and effortless, while its Snapdragon 685 processor and 8GB RAM + 8GB extended RAM keep apps launching quickly.


From day one, you can store classroom locations, access course materials, and chat with new friends without a single hiccup.

Dependability during peak academic periods

Midterms and finals bring tightly packed schedules with simultaneous note reviews, lecture recordings, updates from professors, and deadline tracking. Switching between shared documents, research browsers, and messaging apps is seamless thanks to the Y29’s reliable chipset and extended RAM, ensuring no slowdown during peak productivity hours.

Even with multiple applications running, the Y29 sustains smooth and efficient performance, providing consistent reliability when time is at a premium.

When midterms and finals roll in, the large 6500mAh BlueVolt battery keeps you powered through back-to-back lectures, all-night study sessions, and last-minute review marathons. When you need a quick top-up, the 44W FlashCharge gets you back 100% in no time.

Reliability for the final stretch

By your final year, the stakes are higher—senior projects, thesis defenses, internships, and graduation prep often happen all at once. The vivo Y29’s 50-Month Smooth Experience guarantee ensures the same speed and stability as day one, even under heavy workloads.


Whether finalizing a presentation minutes before a panel, submitting a last paper, or reviewing notes before the graduation ceremony, it delivers instantly and without hesitation.

This consistent performance throughout the college journey means milestones are reached without the distraction of technical setbacks.

Best of all, the vivo Y29 is not only performance ready but also budget friendly. Priced at only Php 8,999, it is a smart investment for students who want a phone that can last their entire college journey without slowing down or needing an upgrade halfway through.

From freshman excitement to graduation triumph, the vivo Y29 is designed to be there for every lecture, every deadline, and every victory in between. Available now at all vivo concept stores and kiosks nationwide, as well as online via vivo e-store, Shopee, and Lazada.

Capture style, one zoom at a time with vivo X200 FE


Portrait photography gets an upgrade with the arrival of the vivo X200 FE, equipped with a 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera that transforms the way you capture people, fashion, and moments, zoomed in or not.

From wide-angle group shots to intimate close-up portraits, this camera is ready to deliver frame-worthy photos every single time.

Zoom in without losing vibe

On top of the classic 23mm, 35mm, and 50mm focal lengths, the X200 FE adds 85mm and 100mm focal options, perfect for creative portrait photographers.
  • 100mm focal length offers stunning image compression, narrowing the distance between the subject and background to make your subject stand out. It creates a sense of drama and depth that’s perfect for bold, eye-catching portraits. 
  • 85mm focal length delivers crystal-clear close-up shots with lifelike detail, while keeping the background beautifully blurred in a natural and flattering way.

No matter where your subject stands, in front of an art wall in Makati or on a crosswalk in BGC, you can zoom in discreetly, capture the shot, and let their look speak volumes.

Bokeh that tells story

To elevate your shots even further, vivo X200 FE features 7 ZEISS Style Bokeh effects: Biotar, B-speed, Sonnar, Planar, Distagon, Cinematic, and Cine-flare.

These ZEISS-engineered effects replicate the look of iconic lenses used in professional filmmaking and fashion photography, giving every portrait a dramatic and atmospheric finish straight out of a magazine spread.

Ready for your next portrait masterpiece

Shooting a friend’s OOTD, a stylish passerby, or a selfie? The vivo X200 FE makes every shot a masterpiece. With its compact form and powerful camera tech, you can move from wide landscape portraits to close-up fashion details, without breaking your vibe or stepping too close.

This is mobile photography made smarter, sleeker, and more stylish. Get it for only Php 44,999 in all vivo concept stores and kiosks nationwide or online via the vivo website.
