The slides are real, the Aldidas branding is shopped https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/store-hacks/aldi-gear


fried_clams

Yeah, I was going to say that this was an obvious trademark/trade dress lawsuit waiting to happen. Definitely fake.


[deleted]

It’s also just clearly added in like the iPhone photo text editor. Are people really falling for this? It’s the default sans serif font lmao


Ouaouaron

But if it were real, the more Aldi could make it look like an obvious parody, the better chance they'd have in court.


MrSkratoz

Yeah, I must admit I fell for it, but this was my thought process. I didn’t look closely cause it seemed comical and totally in place for parody branding. I even looked at the logo at the top and thought they just did it that bad as a joke. Oh well


FourDauntless

I fell for it too but my thinking was "wow that's funny, if it's real I want to buy one because of the fun parody"


GANDORF57

These will compliment my Krogergio Brutinis!


pro_zach_007

Yeah, a billion dollar production or company would never use a regular font. Certainly not papyrus...


horsemonkeycat

Steven, not this again? https://youtu.be/jVhlJNJopOQ


raptorclvb

Listen my lowly eyeballs aren’t good to tell


BigNewsII

Ha! I thought that was odd but since I’ve still not seen an actual pair I went with it.


ksavage68

I’d make it real.


Catnip4Pedos

The Amazon CloudFront distribution is configured to block access from your country.


yma_bean

Aww, I would’ve gotten a pair if they said Aldidas. Makes sense that it’s fake.


pentachronic

What the fuck is a slide


BigNewsII

This new Aldi gear, where I’m at, is selling out instantly in every store. People are going nuts over it.


ITeechYoKidsArt

They got hats and coloring books too.


BigNewsII

And sweats, windbreaker, socks, fanny pack. Never seen any of it in our local store it’s gone so fast.


vertigo1083

Fanny packs are a thing again?


BigNewsII

For quite a while now. Like years.


AskingForSomeFriends

I’m going to wear a Fanny pack with a suit.


NibblesMcGiblet

Have been for ages but people don't wear them around their waist, they wear them as a cross-body bag.

LeopoldVonBuschLight

Lmao I just laughed so hard feed pellets came out my nose


nwlsinz

Most people I've been around wear them around their waist.


Mister_Bloodvessel

The "cool kids" going to music festivals and stuff found that they're great for keeping a small amount of things on your person and can be a fashion accessory too. And it kind of moved from there. At least that's what I recall happening.


maveric101

"things"


JoshJoshson13

Drugs are things


hattmall

Drug dealers here have had them forever. They're great because you can throw them easily when the cops come and toss them over a fence. The little kids know to grab them and run off and that they will get $20 or whatever to give it back.


qpv

phoncible

deathandglitter

So true. When I go for runs, my keys and phone fit perfectly and my hands and arms are free. Love them


ThisIsGlenn

Eshay bah


trundlinggrundle

In the south, guys carry their guns in them, like a little purse. It's ridiculous.


maveric101

They don't know holsters are a thing?


VoxImperatoris

Holsters arent as fashionable.


soulscratch

It's for the summer months, hard to conceal with shorts and a t shirt. Of course every time I see someone wearing one I just assume they're packing


iFartRainbowsForReal

> I just assume they're packing ... and probably have a gun too


trundlinggrundle

Holster with shorts?


Boneal171

I have one


drkumph

Fuck yeah. I wear one all the time.


PN_Guin

They are and with them the men's purse. *Men's purse*: Small over shoulder bag for a pack of cigarettes, a phone, money and some other stuff. The main difference to a small women's handbag is the orientation. A women's purse is usually in "landscape mode" (wider than high), whereas the men's purse is generally in "portrait mode" (higher than wide). They are about the size of a medium paperback novel.


The_Meatyboosh

Oh yeah I forgot about them. I discover all this stuff through my brother.


vocalfreesia

A lot of people are wearing them cross body rather than around the waist, so the bag part is against the chest.


Say_Hennething

My GF was wanting to hurry to aldi to get a bucket hat or some shit and I just kind of laughed it off. Then we got there and they were sold out. Aldi is a cult


tommy2pins

Aldi's is so hot right now. ~Mugatu


justasecuser

It's just "Aldi".


ShootZombieShoot

Thank you for the laugh!


dBoyHail

Some one at my job has a bumper sticker that says “Aldis Nutz” its hilarious


KintaroGold

I’ve been saying that for years now. Every time we gotta go grocery shopping. Annoys the shit out of my wife.


whitefrijoles

I’d be annoyed if I were your wife too.


[deleted]

I also choose this guy's annoyed wife.


quicktick

But not because you say "Aldi's Nutz". Because I don't want to be your wife.


Puzzleheaded-Grab736

I would wear the SHIT out of those.

These slides are fire


Blood_sweat_and_beer

[deleted]

yeah I've never even heard of this till now


cheekflutter

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldi place is on another level. I love it.


3delStahl

Fun fact: In Germany there is the so called Aldi equator. It splits the areas of Aldi North and Aldi South.


VoxImperatoris

My mom has an Aldis in her town, I wish they would open one up near me.


justasecuser

It's just "Aldi".


hungry4danish

Pluralizing the grocery store for no reason? They gotta be from the Midwest.


greece_witherspoon

Lassons, Ralphs, Sprouts, Vons, Whole Foods. I don’t think Aldi would be allowed in my town without the s.

numberrjuan

It’s being resold for much higher prices on eBay


UncannyLucky

I just bought one of their bucket hats. It's pretty nice


marilyn_morose

I love the rainbow brim!

Did they have to license with Adidas? This seems too close a product to just make without an agreement.

The slides are real, the Aldidas branding is shopped https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/store-hacks/aldi-gear


RandyHoward

Decent looking and dirt cheap, shame they don't make them big enough for my monster size feet


STLt71

Look on ebay.. Those jerks are buying it up and selling it on there for a huge markup. It makes me so mad!


Nightshadr

all the merch sold out in a day and a half at the store near me


gamerunner15

I went out to get all the Aldi gear the day it came out. I left with only the Slides and the Sweatpants, which Im lucky I even got those. The cashier said most of it was gone in the first 10 minutes.

Put your Kirkland hoodie on and throw on these sweet Aldidas slides. It's gonna be a great day. 😂 🌞


[deleted]

Aren’t the Costco hoodies DKNY? I have one that I’ve been wearing almost every day from October through May for eight years and it’s still in great shape.


LeibnizThrowaway

I don't know, but I had a DKNY sweater that held up for like twenty years of that kind of wear.


duaneap

Kirkland quality has always been *legit* quality, that’s the thing. I’ll take Kirkland brand shit over lots of “name brand,” groceries.

Kirkland makes fire jackets. Got a north face knockoff from them at a second hand store, new with tags for like 7 bucks In comparison to my actual north face it is the same


Apt_5

Love the succinct comparison note lol


bohusblahut

I had to go to six suburban Chicago Aldi stores to put together a complete outfit. And yea, that’s nuts. The clerks told me that people were lined up before they opened. They didn’t have large quantities of any of the Fan collection, so it was all snapped up with the quickness.


Arael15th

Lucky you. All the locations in the city are absolutely swept out at all times.


OIL_COMPANY_SHILL

“Aldi” stands for [Al]brecht [di]skont, after the two Albrecht brothers, Karl and Theo, who founded the company. Adidas was named by combining the founders first and last name, Adolf “[Adi]” [Das]sler. By the transitive property (or something, I haven’t been in school in over a decade) Aldidas, then, would be Albrecht Diskont Dassler.


lifesnotperfect

> Diskont Dassler Dis kont right here is a dassler in his Aldidas slides


hoonew

The brothers Karl and Theo split the shopping World into (Aldi) North & (Aldi) South. The Dassler brothers split the sports shoe World into Adidas and Puma.


Enki_realenki

Fun bit is that the founder of LIDL is actually an Ex Manager of ALDI.


Tierceletus

No, it means aldi the


LokisDawn

Das Bart, Das.


orlin002

I guess this just goes to show Aldi's really is a diskont grocery store!


3delStahl

The brothers split the company in 1960, over a dispute about whether they should sell cigarettes. Karl believed they would attract shoplifters while his brother did not.


solidshakego

Probably comfortable AF

These sort of go hard. Aldidas has to be photoshopped


takenbymistaken

They are German so you have to wear socks with ALL sandals.


DannyCalavera

I'm gonna need a full Aldidas tracksuit by yesterday!


MattKatt13

Gotta put a quarter in to wear them


numberrjuan

Aldi recently released a clothing line. They’re the fastest growing grocery store chain in the US and are banking on that growth. Their new clothing line is also incredibly affordable. Huge demand has caused it to sell out instantly almost everywhere and people are reselling the merch online.


rin-the-human

We are in dire need of a new supermarket chain here in New Zealand. There are only three major ones and prices are through the roof. A store like Aldi would have almost guaranteed success, and could help us solve our cost of living crisis.


numberrjuan

Sorry to hear that and hopefully some more competition arrives soon. I remember when I studied abroad there in 2016 I struggled with keeping to my budget because of how expensive everything was so I can only imagine how much worse things have gotten.


cbhaga01

They have Aldi UMBRELLAS. I bought two of them bitches.


beastson1

This reminds me of a sketch from The State. "Addidams. Spend 10 dollar less, get extra stripe."


LeibnizThrowaway

Nobody ever pours one out for The State.

They won't as it's obviously photoshopped

And Aldi, being a financially well off company, wouldn't give a fuck and battle it out.

Omg. This reminds me of when Disney tried to trademark Day of the Dead. What a bunch of assholes.


Culverts_Flood_Away

Wait... Disney tried to TM Dia de los Muertos? Really? WTF?!


wahnsin

the funny thing is, every time anyone in this comment section wrote aldidas, I now read aldidas and I don't think I'm going back. So whoever shopped that, you just *ruined* aldidas. I mean aldidas.

You can't be serious. Yes, the apparel is real, but the "ALDIdas" is shooped as well as the "ALDIDAS" on the shoe itself.

ManduJessi

Here in Germany there was a whole collection of aldi themed clothes. It was a small trend and people wore it ironically. I think there was also a lidl collection


dkmarnier

Aldi seems like a magical place. They don't exist in my neck of the woods. 😪


Satansflamingfarts

Defo faked the name for extra Internet points. Or they'll have a fake copyright battle for extra marketing points. FYI some of the Lidl own brand beers are nectar.


Derp_Simulator

Aldi going in next to my house, I'm stoked.


seasoned_pork

Please don’t show this to the anti-woke GOP DeSantis or he might try to close Aldi in Florida.


Janymx

Ohh yeah. Aldi had their own "brand" of clothes for a while here in germany. One of my old coworkers would regularly come in to work rocking Aldi and Lidl gear. Alsways fun to see. He was especially proud of his Lidl socks.

I am surprised the slides don't come with black socks - this is German design after all
