What is the reward?

The commercial terms and conditions in connection with best design creations, including but not limited to sales areas, product categories, sizes, price or release date will be decided solely by UNIQLO.
- If you are a finalist, you will receive special prizes and goodies from UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency. UNHCR may withdraw prizes and/or terminate merchandising of t-shirts with winning design without prior notice, irrespective of the originality of the design submitted by you, if similar design is already publicly available outside UNIQLO stores or any other channels as decided by UNIQLO and UNHCR.
