That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup and how it puts out product
Here product ships in batches instead of a seasonal calendar. The brand’s own online store takes fresh lines every week or two, and its shops in Los Angeles and Houston sell them after that. Publication dates in that store’s feed, read on 29 September 2026, cluster hard: twelve products on 24 July 2026, eleven on 12 September, ten on 25 September. Press coverage of the label centres on long lines at the Melrose Avenue store and limited-edition drops. No drop calendar is published anywhere. Stock clears fast: 619 of 1,443 size variants were sold out that day, close to skate shorts 43 percent.
Only one mechanic stands year-round, the mystery item: a mystery tee at about $75, mystery shorts at about $50, at the brand’s own store as of September 2026. Read those as a snapshot only, because prices and stock shift constantly. Since no restock policy is published, a sold-out size may never return. Restocks are often promised in listings for alocs clothing and cough syrup clothing; the brand has promised nothing of the kind.
The collaboration record, and how to read it
Every collaboration and activation the research documents appears below, in date order, with nothing added from resale chatter. Each entry names its source: coverage published at the time, a partner’s own post, the brand’s blog, or a store feed date. A feed date records when product went live, not when a deal was struck. Where a piece list or a price was never published, none is invented here. The brand’s name refers to promethazine-codeine cough syrup, known as lean; that is why the medical and horror imagery appears in these releases. Some entries are thin here and are left thin.
8 April 2023: the pop-up with Cookies
Cookies, the brand co-founded by Berner, takes the earliest dated collaboration here. It launched on 8 April 2023 as That’s A Awful Lot Of Cookies. It ran as a pop-up inside the Cookies store at 8360 Melrose Avenue. It sits in the confirmed column, because an outside publication covered it at the time. It is a dated event to record, not a catalogue entry. There is no piece list and there are no prices in that coverage.
28 April 2023: BlueBucksClan and That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary
Titled That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary, it was released on 28 April 2023 at the 7669 Melrose Avenue flagship. Three weeks later came a capsule with the Los Angeles duo BlueBucksClan. The drop honored the late Drakeo The Ruler, and every account of it leads with that. What the sourcing covers is the event and the intent, not the fabric. It is one of the few releases documented by an outside publication at the time. Anyone compiling a catalogue of thats a awful lot of cough syrup collaborations should date this one and stop.
11 March 2024: the 310babii announcement
With that post as the only source, the date is solid and the substance is thin. The brand announced a collaboration with 310babii on its own blog on 11 March 2024. Set the blog against the store feed and it still does not settle which products belonged to it. The piece count, the colorways and the prices are fixed by nothing. A March 2024 stretch opens here that was busy even by this label’s standards, four activations in nineteen days. The honest entry comes down to a name and a date.
14 to 17 March 2024: Rolling Loud California
The largest documented activation is Rolling Loud California, staged from 14 to 17 March 2024 at Hollywood Park in Inglewood. The brand built a carnival on site, with arcade games and a swing ride, and ran two onsite stores across the four days. That is the whole sourced description, from the brand’s own release. No attendance figure and no product list survive in the documentation. Something that size is not a capsule: it sold product, yet it was staged as an attraction. A rare fixed date range for temporary retail under the awful lot of cough syrup banner also comes from it.
19 March 2024: the Got Sole appearance
Two days on from the festival’s close, the brand appeared at Got Sole in Los Angeles on 19 March 2024. What survives is a recap on the brand’s own blog, the label’s account of its own booth. The entry gives a date and the fact that the brand works conventions. Got Sole operates as a sneaker and streetwear convention, which makes this trade-show retail, not a partnership. No documentation shows a collaborative product exclusive to that weekend. Anything more would be fabrication.
29 March 2024: the drop of the Dodger Collection
On 29 March 2024 the brand’s blog published the Dodger Collection, closing the month. The post names a hoodie, a tee, a fitted cap and a dad hat, and kids tees, which is the clearest piece list in this record. It is also the only documented headwear inside a named collection, which matters practically. As of September 2026 the store’s hat collection returns no products, so no cap from it can be bought new. Nothing in the post establishes whether any license sat behind the name. Date it to March 2024 and describe the contents as the brand did.
April 2024: Trapstar London
Trapstar carries the strongest evidence here: the London label published the collaboration from its own verified accounts in April 2024. Evidence coming from a partner outweighs a reseller’s caption, and it removes the question of who authorized what. Nothing documents an official piece list beyond the hoodie. A Trapstar collaboration hoodie is catalogued on a resale platform at about $150 retail under a spring 2025 season code. Because resale platforms hold secondhand records, that figure is reported rather than confirmed. Among every entry here, this is the one to lean on hardest.
1 August 2025: Rhime shoes
As of September 2026 The Rhime Shoes sat at about $100, down from about $200, at the brand’s own store; prices change. Rhime USA brought footwear into the catalogue, its shoes published to the store on 1 August 2025. The store’s own collaborations collection contains only this product. Most of its collaborations never get a permanent catalogue home, so tracing them means reading dated posts. Outside the store listing, no launch coverage was found. The entry is a product record with a publication date, not an announced event.
24 July 2026: the Stinc Team drop
It runs to an ALOCS x Stinc Team Dragon tee and shorts, plus a wider Awful Lot Of Stincs capsule. Stinc Team is the most recent documented collaboration, published to the store on 24 July 2026. No press release accompanied it in the material reviewed. As of September 2026 shorts in it sat at about $150 at the brand’s own store. The date comes from the store feed, so it marks when product went live. It stands confirmed as product, which is a narrower claim than confirmed as a campaign.
What is confirmed, what is claimed, and what just circulates
Everything above sits on a dated source; three further items do not. First is a capsule the store published on 12 September 2026 under the ALOCS x YSL name, a bandana at about $30 up to a hoodie at about $200. Real products, sold by the brand, but nothing establishes who the other party is, so no partner is named here and the capsule stands as unconfirmed. The second is a Cartoon Network collaboration, which surfaces on resale listings and in a store collection name but has no announcement and no licensing confirmation. The third of them is an LRG collaboration at ComplexCon, which the brand’s own press release names once with no date attached. Neither of those has independent confirmation, and calling either a licensed collaboration would be a guess dressed as a fact. On purpose, the table keeps the two columns apart. Music artists are also named in that press release as past merch collaborators, which is the brand’s undated claim about itself.
