Also good
Still hits
My favorite looks from this season, some things to emulate rn:
Also, I want to use the sweater as an accessory like this one, but I can't figure out how to make it comfy:
ALD Styling: 
Average ALD wearer Styling: 
Average ALD wearer Styling: you don't have to @ me like that
its too true though
I may be one of the few people who was worn an ALD cycling jersey to actually cycle
There can't be many
sweater vests are so cool
😏
me fighting in the #waywt chat for my life cause im the meme rn
love that one
Or that but probably without the hat
if those pants weren't $400
therin lies the problem with a lot of cool things
if a rico suit is anything like the rico shirt it's gonna go so hard
This is pretty interesting

ALD / New Balance 860v2 at AimeLeonDore.com
yellows are bricks, oranges are cool but difficult, but that white one is actually a really nice take on this silhouette imo
Oranges will be much easier than you expect
don't tempt me
i don't need more shoes
It's a very athletic looking runner, shouldn't be too hard to pair with shorts at least
The yellow and orange are both shoes that fit firmly in the “cool in concept” catagory for me
I dont think ive ever worn a fit and thought “this would look better if i had either of those colored shoes”
ALD's styling
which is not their strongest ngl
Went in the London store today. Whelming.
why
I think they would look cool when they’re styled like this
But I don’t see my self buying them
It kinda feels like ALD fell behind Kith on the ASICS 2010 runner trend is now trying to play catch up with the 860
I just happen to like the Gel Kayano 14 styling better
Aaron levine is calling out madewell for this https://www.instagram.com/p/Cu5iwIutlyH/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
This is insanely blatant
didn't he do the same thing at A&F? Or I'm I missing something?
Did he?
Not sure. But I thought he brought the ALD styling/ influence to A&F? That's around the same time when everyone started to say that AF was making a comeback
I think hes specifically calling out madewell for the art direction of the photoshoot
Oh ok. I thought he was specifically talking about the clothing, which tbf looks like something he would have done.
I don't see an issue with it
A&Fs ALD lite was after Aaron Levines time
He left like 2 years before
I went to read an article like the nerd I am. He was fired in 2021. Back then A&F was already starting to get hot
Put This On

In an industry known for preening and peacocking, Aaron Levine is a rare and shy bird. Over the last ten...
Ok nevermind i misread. Aaron actually styled that madewell shoot

End of season 40% off sale just started. Online only
Sale ends tonight at midnight eastern, buy now or hold your peace
I'm sure it's pretty picked through tho
The double pleated pants in marsala seem cool and in my size but i dunno i’ve never been a pleat guy
ALD is an expensive way to start instead of ebay ngl
Tons of PRL pleated pants on ebay
The cropped topcoat is cool but I have enough coats
Also only XXL
Yah i want to expand in some different colors especially pants
A coat for you and all your homies
But its an expensive experiment
Def take a look through ebay
You already know that I'm sure tho
Wait wtf the black Rico shirt is back in stock
I am so tempted rn
Not on sale tho
29in ptp is huge in that topcoat even for xxl
Lmao true
I think the watercolor shirt I already own is the best thing on sale rn
Or a hat
Tons of great hats left but i’m hatted to the gills already
they restocked hats
but they aren't on sale ah
they had a full size run on the perfecto for $600 and im annoyed that i sat on that

although ALD has 2ct worth of diamonds vs 0.55 on the jacoje piece… their jewelry markup is insane lmao
I would never buy ALD jewlery lol
the ALD diamonds are lab grown (good) which makes the markup bonkers
i genuinely like all of their pendants
but the prices are crazy
i love this though I can’t lie
wonder who they contract to make their jewlery tbh
ah "handmade in NY", if that isn't fluff and they are actually paying for a US jeweler to make these to order I suspect thats driving the markup very very high
you might like The Great Frog if you like the pieces you posted

Damn i wonder if i can sell my chimayo vest now for $400 lol
Medium Black Rico shirt back in stock on their website
How we feelin’ about the F/W teaser fellas?
Like they didn't show enough to have a real opinion
Me 363 days of the year: man I’m so glad I’m not a fan of NY baseball teams
Me on ALD lookbook drop days: 😖
Lol is the first look a blazer over a jumpsuit?
I'm actually a little whelmed by this lookbook, there are the looks I dig the most though. The shorter jackets are really really cool though, the bode esc one or if they make the cropped red one in some other colors might be cool though, except I'm worried the bode esc one is gonna be like $800
There’s a lot of misses in here imo
That said I need this
It’s lowkey awful
The EU drop today was bad.
And prices are jacked up again.
North East London Branded Tshirt vibes.
Too much going on in most fits, and like, weird ivy integrations where there shouldn't be, definetly one of the worse ALD lookbooks in a while
Yes who says one can't be stylish while robbing a bank
I like this one... one of the few where a baseball cap doesn't feel forced
Something about blue and orange on a Yankees cap seems so wrong to me
The mets knit is sick wish i liked the mets
no you don't
pretty sure being a mets fan is one of the worse experiences in baseball
Well i’m a padres fan so its not much better
You're right. I thought it was a Mets cap at first
At least our stadium is really nice
did anybody buy anything
they’re taxing hella for mid 👎no
I'm thinkin about gettin the dog treat jar
right shoulda looked
pretty lame and the best items sold out already lol
telling when my favorite things are a harvard hat lookalike, a polo bear sweater lookalike, and a university stripe obcd 
best items being:
PRL sweater rip-off: https://www.aimeleondore.com/products/collegiate-buddy-knit-sweater
Black Unisphere hat: https://www.aimeleondore.com/products/unisphere-hat-7

whew the pricing
What are they cooking
i just want some ALD new balance slides to replace the adidas ones i ruined 😂
the last season ones said "international friendship through basketball" from what i remember which is cool lol
also want a unisphere sweatshirt
as a resident ALD fan, do you know when they're likely to do another archive type sale?
No
video goes hard btw lol, just watched it
They release these every season I’m pretty sure
The new balance capsule or whatever
Thank you!
They do 2x a year so most likely July
But everything is final sale so if you're waiting for something old and it wasn't in the last sale it won't be in the next one either
To my knowledge ALD doesn't do real archive sales or anything
Its a drop based brand they don't have archives and they only do end of season sales. Occasionally they also do sales of pieces they have that they used as inspiration (read: they didn't create them) as well, but those are just sellign the pieces, not discounts. The sale is generally at most a 20% discount anyway.
Like similar brands sales kinda miss the point of the brand.
True I was thinking end of season sale
Since they usually have some "archive" (prior season overstock) mixed in
Also their perennial items don't go on sale ever (eg: Unisphere hats, a lot of their basic sweatshirts)
You can generally tell off a drop if an item will hit sale (if it doesn't sell out in any size or is extremely expensive) but again, its a drop brand, things are intended to sell out and never go on sale, thats the whole idea.
i'm p sure i saw the specific sweatshirt i wanted on sale last summer! i'm in no rush but yah you're right about it being less likely as a drop brand
Than I going to be honest, I'll be shocked if its still in stock
They restocked the unisphere sweatshirts in all diff colors (I think??). I think they were still in stock before they closed the webstore tho they were mainly not on sale in the winter end of season sale
I want the camp shirt with the playing cards too but that went out of stock and is prob not coming back
I really like the cap with that logo
Their teasing Lookbook looks on their insta a bit
Yankee embroidered ribbed tank is so funny
If only he were alive to see this :hawyee:
The most new york item possible
Ugh I love these pendants
The painting ones
this feels carrie bradshaw coded so what smiles said
there is still time to delete this
The best look imo
Big fan of buckle closures. The knit looks cool too. Kinda reminds me of their tea towel shirt
Sweater vest I assume?
Perhaps
That would be my guess as well
Perhaps not
Funny that even ald won’t try to make suspenders work without a jacket in sight
That’s the menswear rule even they won’t try to break
Looking forward to seeing more of the bottom layers of these fits
😵💫
This is interesting as an alt to the drake’s double zip fleece
These are funny
Omgg currency hats
Got to show this to a FX trader
Full kit wanker
Is this leather
Yeah
Cool
Where'd you find the prices?
Thought this vest was cool but it’s part of the feckin jacket
That’s a super unhelpful way to share an image
Here ug go. Download it so u can see it normally
For it being a summer collection it feels like a lot of it looks kinda heavy/warm
less knit polos and the like
We have
At home
dickriding barcelona ahh fit
Do they know barcelona don’t even have a no10 rn
someone do a wellness check on smiles why isn't he in here yet
cause i was sleeping
looking now
do you have early access cause i didn't get that 😦
initial thought its a redemption from last seasons lookbook
EA is for people who bought in the past right?
I just picked it off the ald reddit
huh I got the emails all last season but nothign today
might be i dropped below whatever amount of money you gotta spend to make it
Rico shirt returns I see
they got the rico pants to go with the rico shirt
broadly agree with your takes art
have to say the fucking embroidered tanks are not doing it for me
ok the yankees one is cool
Gonna rip this look by dyeing a ribbed tank
and becoming more muscular
SFC gotta release theirs in more colors
im sure it will be more affordable than ALD xd
I want the currency cap but $65 for a cap makes me feel stupid lol
Also idk how I feel about the ALD logo on it
ugh there is EA so that means the picasso shirt will be sold out
since I don't have access
oh you're a usd fan name three financial crashes
(don't actually)
Aww u got me hype for a sec
These probably my favorites
I want the white hat from the secon pic
that fireman jacket is insane but I bet it's $800+
absolutely, wonder what the material is
looks kinda like brushed suede but hairier
ya thats what im wondering
Some of the pieces from this collection I feel like you could go to SFC for
its not cheap but its probably cheaper lmao
Art gonna be searching PRL fireman jackets on ebay
What's SFC?
Scott Fraser Collection
Wait dont u have to be careful with real secondhand fireman jackets?
Like they can have carcinogens
dawg I found a full yellow version of this at buffalo last year but it was before I was built the way I am
we're just referring to the fastenings
these jackets were not at ground zero or anything
that black double breasted cotton cardi would be cool but im sure its far too expensive
yeah I thought that was cool too
Is it just me or does the fireman jacket lookbook fit give different flavor of story mfg vibes?
blatant @Digs fit battle ripoff though
Even though the two brands are a totally different vibe
little miffed i got dropped from EA even though I bought 1 item on sale season and absolutely don't deserve it
ALD EA membership lasts less time than Delta Platinum
crazy
its just you benji lol, Story doesn't have a monopoly on colorful knits
gotta get my bands up
Most insufferable person you know item
nice db cardi
american football jerseys are gomna be big
wait lmao they bumped the Unisphere hat prices by $10
every time the ALD book comes out it makes me want to shoot my own lookbook of all my shit lol
but that sounds like the most vain insufferable thing I could possibly do
sounds like a fashion influencer thing
do it
I just like stylin
motherfucker thats not a cotton cardigan, looks like its merino
$500
alright who makes an affordable double breasted cardigan
Bode
with a low button stance
Secondhand for $500 :gigachad:
"affordable"
Lol
Joking aside there isn’t really, some vtg ones pop up but they’re generally pretty expensive for vintage
ugh, cmon everyone is ripping ALD these days
can't they rip that
prices are pretty insane these days for ALD have to say
its gone up over the last couple of years pretty sure
crazy i just realized the vest im trying to resell I had the wrong price for, no wonder it wasn't selling
wow I played myself
ALD spring/summer available now
@smiles Yah they seemed to have raised prices quite a bit
I'm hoping a lot of the stuff will set for end of season sale
I think this is the first season I don't have EA
It's out for everyone rn, not just EA btw
im hoping the drops will get better throughout the season
but for now my money is safe for this week
Thinking same lol. Wanted the USD cap but the corny logo on it is dissuading me. Good financial decision not to get a $65 cap anyway lol
And I think they raised the price of the unisphere caps by $20 this season wtf
regarding the look book I def want to get the running top
not the tank top that they're selling for 80 💀
Drops bad, like we knew yesterday. Prices are kinda insane, I'm especially questioning some of the material choices (eg: full wool cardigan in a spring-summer collection instead of cotton to make it $500). Unisphere hats being raised by $10 is hilarious ngl. Only cool thing to me are the double breasted cardigan.
Feels like most of the items have nothing setting them apart to pay the ALD premium.
Like the bowling shirt with embroidery and contrast back flaps is cool, but given I can almost certainly find a bowling shirt for half the price its a hard sell
Basically only the two things in the drop I dig
grabbed an artiste sweater as a lil treat for myself🥰
there are a couple items for later drops that have my attention, but I'll wait to see the prices before deciding.
The caps are absolutely mid new era quality as well
Just like me fr

But actual drop this time
which hat was the one you wanted?
lol damn picasso shirt sold out too
haha i had a feeling it was this one
I've wanted it since the lookbook came out lol
Reversible jacket is brazy
And some cool pants this drop
oh yeah that jacket is sick
the mesh tanks are cool too
for that price though idk id much rather cop an sfc one
They are cool but double the price of the SFC ones
Ya exactly
I'm positive the long sleeve mesh polos are gonna make it to sale though
So imma cop that when it hits sale
there are some similar vintage military mesh tanks out there too
Is the mesh tank really worth $180? Seems steep but idk who else makes a good one.
"Seems steep" = ALD lol

I slept on the 860s and regretted it. Now I'm not sure if I can trust my own judgement with these 1000s 😄
I feel the same about the 860s but I was at least on the fence about those. The 1000s just aren’t doing much for me & I dont feel like I could make them work that well in my wardrobe. Granted, I’m still wearing some cooked 550s so what do I know
The crochet tote is really cute
nice of them to post the dimensions so I can have my wife's grandma rip it off for me
ive got a few thigns ive been waiting for sale all season
realized early they weren't gonna sell out before sale so im locked in
Hmmm when is the sale usually?
Late July early August
Anything that hasn't sold cause of price will go immediately as well
Eg that silk jacket I expect to sell out day one of the sale
Only reason it's not sold out rn is cause it's $600
Sale is also generally only like 30%
I feel like FW last year there was a lot more variance. Some stuff was like 20%, a lot was 30%, this one sport coat I was eyeing from the first lookbook went to 50%.
hmm, if thats the case i assume they price it based on how well it moved
could be cautiously optimistic but once the sale starts things will sell fast
😈
which shirt is this?
the tote bag
good looks
if she rocks it I'll have her give the corridor cardigan a go
Update
she did a good job
its cute
As the discord number one Loafers hater..
Im glad these will be stupid money because they are whispering to me like the green goblin mask
:sheeesh:
apparently not actual snakeskin so under 2k :xd:
will the ALD stuff restock?
no
occasionally they might get returns for a sold out item you can buy if you subscribe and buy the moment they email you
Did we ever talk about how they never actually made this jacket because it was too expensive to produce lmfao
What material is it? Why so expensive
Looks suede
ngl i didn't even notice lmao

Very cool, very swag
i saw it on instagram and was fully onboard until the quilted suit
quilted suit is cool but styled terribly
drop is good
got the early access
they have really fun bit loafers this year im tempted
yays for me; liked almost every textile minus the waffle knit
Of the DB jackets, one is sold out already (the blazer) and the other is $1500 lol
Honestly ALD styling is still very cool but it doesn’t feel as brain wormy to me in recent seasons
I’m taking fewer and fewer ideas away from it
Maybe that’s just a side effect of spending as much time as I have posting fit idk
i think their styling has gotten slightly worse/played out, and my taste has changed a bit as well
so like ditto
I’m in the middle of the desert and barely have connection so can’t check, but still no porsche jacket?
no
didn't it come out last year?
Hmm think last year was a red one, they spoiled a green one for this year
I fuck with all this
apart from the loafers
lol?
Hmmmmmmm
I have noticed that I barely pay attention to ALD anymore
So ig yeah they are cooked
i feel like they have fewer hits every season now
and they are so often too expensive
idk how cooked they were or were not, we tried to go to ald last weekend and their virtual queue was three hours long still
but also lol
you gotta go in the morning when they open tbh
works like a charm
Line outside a store is no indicator of a brand’s standing
Supreme on Fairfax will have a line outside the store until at least 2050 regardless of what they’re putting out
ditto for the supreme in nyc
i fuck with a supreme accessory or two tbh
The anniversary leather jacket costs 15k and is sold out :xd:
And people said the hypebeast era was dead
Another fucking car
I did get introduced to one of their designers though (though he had just left the brand), he told me cool things are coming in spring and I should look forward to it
fingers crossed he was right
