Publication: United Arrows (UA — 株式会社ユナイテッドアローズ) Issue/Format: Nov 2014 promotional material / catalog feature (filename 2014_11_UA.pdf) Language: Japanese NAS path: 2014/2014_11_UA.pdf

Index note: The master index lists this as “UA (Under Armour?)” — after reading the content, this is confirmed as United Arrows, a Japanese fashion retailer, not Under Armour.


Patrick Oancia is styled in United Arrows clothing in the context of November workshops. He is identified as:

PATRICK OANCIA — YogaJaya Director / Yoga Instructor

The piece positions Patrick as a lifestyle figure whose workshop/teaching work is visually aligned with UA’s brand aesthetic.


  • United Arrows, not Under Armour — UA in Japanese fashion context almost always refers to United Arrows (ユナイテッドアローズ), an influential Tokyo-based fashion retailer known for curated lifestyle aesthetics; the index speculation was incorrect
  • “YogaJaya Director/Yoga Instructor” — double title confirms Patrick’s public identification at this point: institutional director and individual teacher, not just one or the other
  • November workshops — the UA collaboration is tied to specific workshops; the brand lent clothing for Patrick’s teaching events, a form of brand/lifestyle crossover common in the Tokyo fashion+wellness space
  • 2014 context — this is the same year as the ViVi model endorsement (J95) and one year before the Houdini catalog (J98), which would mark the first public naming of Baseworks; UA appears to be the last major fashion-press placement in the YogaJaya phase before Baseworks branding begins to appear
