The way product reaches shoppers at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup
Batch releases, rather than seasons, describe how product arrives here. The brand’s own online store gets new lines every week or two, and its stores in Los Angeles and Houston carry them next. Pulled on 29 logo tee September 2026, the posting dates in that store’s feed cluster hard: twelve products on 24 July 2026, eleven on 12 September, ten on 25 September. Press coverage of the label points to long lines at the Melrose Avenue store and limited-edition drops. No drop calendar appears anywhere. Stock moves fast, and that day 619 of 1,443 size variants were sold out, close to 43 percent.
Just one mechanic runs 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. Treat those as a snapshot, since prices and stock move constantly. Listings for alocs clothing and cough syrup clothing often promise restocks; the brand has promised nothing of the kind. A sold-out size may never return, because no restock policy is published.
How to read the collaboration record
Below is every collaboration and activation the research documents, in date order, nothing added from resale chatter. The source is named in every entry: coverage published at the time, a partner’s own post, the brand’s blog, or a store feed date. All a feed date records is when product went live, not when a deal was struck. Several entries are thin and stay thin. Where a piece list or a price was never published, none is invented here. The brand’s name points to promethazine-codeine cough syrup, known as lean; that is why the medical and horror imagery appears in these releases.
8 April 2023: the pop-up staged with Cookies
The earliest collaboration carrying a date is the one with Cookies, the brand co-founded by Berner. It launched on 8 April 2023 as That’s A Awful Lot Of Cookies. The drop ran as a pop-up at the Cookies store at 8360 Melrose Avenue. Log it as a dated event, not a catalogue entry. Because an outside publication covered it at the time, it belongs in the confirmed column. 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
Three weeks later came a capsule with the Los Angeles duo BlueBucksClan. It was titled That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary and released on 28 April 2023 at the 7669 Melrose Avenue flagship. Honoring the late Drakeo The Ruler stands at the front of every account of the drop. It is one of the few releases documented by an outside publication at the time. The sourcing covers the event and the intent, not the fabric. Anyone cataloguing 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. On 11 March 2024 the brand announced a collaboration with 310babii on its own blog. 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. Reading the blog against the store feed does not settle which products belonged to it. The honest entry is a name and a date.
14 to 17 March 2024: Rolling Loud California
The biggest activation on the record is Rolling Loud California, staged from 14 to 17 March 2024 at Hollywood Park in Inglewood. The brand assembled a carnival on site, with arcade games and a swing ride, and worked two onsite stores across the four days. That is the whole sourced description, from the brand’s own release. A footprint that size is not a capsule: it sold product, but it was staged as an attraction. It also supplies a rare fixed date range for temporary retail under the awful lot of cough syrup banner. Neither an attendance figure nor a product list is documented.
19 March 2024: the Got Sole appearance
What survives is a recap on the brand’s own blog, the label’s account of its own booth. On 19 March 2024 the brand appeared at Got Sole in Los Angeles, two days after the festival closed. A collaborative product exclusive to that weekend is documented nowhere. What the entry gives is a date and the fact that the brand works conventions. Since Got Sole is a sneaker and streetwear convention, this is trade-show retail, not a partnership. To inflate it further would be fabrication.
29 March 2024: the Dodger Collection
March closed with the Dodger Collection, published on the brand’s blog on 29 March 2024. The post sets out 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. Whether any license sat behind the name is not established by the post. Since the store’s hat collection returns no products as of September 2026, no cap from it can be bought new. Date it to March 2024 and describe the contents as the brand did.
April 2024: Trapstar out of London
The strongest evidence on this page belongs to Trapstar, because the London label published the collaboration from its own verified accounts in April 2024. Evidence coming from a partner beats a reseller’s caption, and it removes the question of who authorized what. A resale platform catalogues a Trapstar collaboration hoodie at about $150 retail under a spring 2025 season code. Because resale platforms hold secondhand records, that figure is reported rather than confirmed. Nothing documents an official piece list beyond the hoodie. Of 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 carried footwear into the catalogue, its shoes published to the store on 1 August 2025. They are the only product inside the store’s own collaborations collection. Most of its collaborations never get a permanent catalogue home, so tracing them means reading dated posts. No launch coverage outside the store listing was found. What the entry is: a product record with a publication date, not an announced event.
24 July 2026: the Stinc Team capsule
It takes in an ALOCS x Stinc Team Dragon tee and shorts, plus a wider Awful Lot Of Stincs capsule. The most recent documented collaboration is Stinc Team, published to the store on 24 July 2026. In the material reviewed, no press release accompanied it. Shorts from it were priced at about $150 at the brand’s own store as of September 2026. Because the date comes from the store feed, 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 merely circulates
Everything above rests on a dated source, and three further items do not. The first of them is a capsule published by the store on 12 September 2026 under the ALOCS x YSL name, a bandana at about $30 up to a hoodie at about $200. The products are real and 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 of them is a Cartoon Network collaboration, turning up on resale listings and in a store collection name but with no announcement and no licensing confirmation. Third is an LRG collaboration at ComplexCon, named once in the brand’s own press release with no date attached. Music artists are also named in that press release as past merch collaborators, which is the brand’s undated claim about itself. Independent confirmation is missing for both, so calling either a licensed collaboration would be a guess dressed as a fact. The two columns are kept apart in the table on purpose.
