Right? I'd wear the shit out of those

lapommedeterre@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Got these a few months ago, I'm in the US. Also picked up the other random apparel lol (socks, sweat pants, etc)

Aldi operates in Britain... although you could maybe find some for sale online

I'm a dumbass, Aldi are everywhere!

"Aldi operates in Britain"? Yeah... that's exactly where Aldi is from...

Nougat@kbin.social · 12 pts · 2y

Aldi is "from" Germany. In the UK and US, it's Aldi Süd. Aldi Nord owns Trader Joe's.

Wat ya joking? Aldi is a German company. They also own the American store Trader Joe's.

Those are actually separate companies, Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd

Don't know what I was thinking, I've been in Aldi a few times in Germany!!

if they didn't have the "Aldidas" text I'd wear them, the colors are pretty

Good news is they didn't actually have the text on them. It's photoshopped. Bad news is I don't think they sell them anymore.

9point6@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

This is all bad news

Psythik@lemm.ee · 15 pts · 2y

I want them because of the Aldidas text. That shit's hilarious

9point6@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

The Aldidas would 100% turn these into a purchase and a daily wear. Otherwise they're just some alright slides

Neither are these called Aldidas nor Adidums nor is Aldi from Britain?! Aldi is from Germany, as well as Adiletten are - that’s the name of the original shoes. So these are called „Aldiletten“.

Your aldidas are fake

CarlsIII@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

I thought the Nick Aldis shoes would look better than that.

They are from Slovakia, they are called Adidums, and they have four stripes instead of three.

So for less money, I was able to get extra stripe.

FlembleFabber@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Then why is there "aldidas" written on it?

Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social · 2 pts · 2y

I would have guessed only a few people would remember a line from an obscure sketch from an obscure show from the 90s

4am@lemm.ee · 2 pts · 2y

Text was added after. I own a pair of these and they do not say “Aldiddas” lol

plactagonic@sopuli.xyz · 1 pts · 2y

More stripes, more Adidas.

SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz · 3 pts · 2y

They look kind of pre-used.

smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.de · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

It should be "Aclidas" as "cl" looks almost like "d".

XTornado@lemmy.ml · 9 pts · 2y

It's from Aldi so... they might want their name in there.

That said originally they didn't have the text somebody add it on picture so it's pointless to discuss it I guess.

Bro that would be a copyright violation, don't be crazy!
