- Model match
- Japan ranking listing: AIRism Bra Camisole; Item No. 465707; XS-4XL; verify color code 00/Taiwan product page: AIRism BRATOP camisole (Item No. 482184)Both markets carry the same manufacturer product: Japan's official product API (/jp/api/commerce/v5/ja/products/E465707-000/price-groups/00/l2s) returns 482184 as the first six digits of the communicationCode for every size/color, and 482184 is exactly the item number for this product on UNIQLO Taiwan's official site. The item numbers differ between the two markets to begin with (an earlier round searched the Taiwan site directly with the Japan item number and found nothing), and the communicationCode is a shared manufacturer part number that can serve as proof of the same model. The item numbers differ between the two markets (Japan 465707 / Taiwan 482184); the match is based on the manufacturer's communicationCode rather than a shared model string, so this is recorded as same spec rather than same model.
