That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup and the way it issues product
Merchandise turns up here in batches instead of seasonal ranges. New lines appear on the brand’s own online store every week or two, then sell through its shops in Los Angeles and Houston. 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. Nowhere is a drop calendar published. Stock clears awful lot of cough syrup t shirt fast: 619 of 1,443 size variants were sold out that day, close to 43 percent. Coverage of the label records long lines at the Melrose Avenue store and limited-edition drops.
The one standing mechanic is 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 shift constantly. A sold-out size may never return, because no restock policy is published. Restocks are often promised in listings for alocs clothing and cough syrup clothing; the brand has promised nothing of the kind.
How to read the collaboration record
Every collaboration and activation the research documents follows, in date order, with nothing added from resale chatter. The source is named in each entry: 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. Several entries are thin and stay thin. Where a piece list or a price was never published, nothing is invented here. Promethazine-codeine cough syrup, known as lean, is what the brand’s name refers to, and that explains the medical and horror imagery in these releases.
8 April 2023: the Cookies pop-up
First by date is the collaboration with Cookies, the brand co-founded by Berner. Titled That’s A Awful Lot Of Cookies, it launched on 8 April 2023. The pop-up was hosted at the Cookies store at 8360 Melrose Avenue. It belongs in the confirmed column, since an outside publication covered it at the time. That coverage offers no piece list and no prices. Record it as a dated event, not a catalogue entry.
28 April 2023: That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary, with BlueBucksClan
It was titled That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary and released on 28 April 2023 at the 7669 Melrose Avenue flagship. Three weeks later came a capsule with the Los Angeles duo BlueBucksClan. The late Drakeo The Ruler was honored by the drop, and every account of it leads with that. It is one of the few releases documented by an outside publication at the time. Anyone building a catalogue of thats a awful lot of cough syrup collaborations should date this one and stop. The sourcing covers the event and the intent, not the fabric.
11 March 2024: the 310babii announcement
The brand’s own blog announced a collaboration with 310babii on 11 March 2024. That post stands as the only source, so the date is solid while the substance stays thin. Reading the blog against the store feed 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 amounts to 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 built a carnival on site, with arcade games and a swing ride, and ran two onsite stores across the four days. That, from the brand’s own release, is the whole sourced description. Something that size is not a capsule: it sold product, yet 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. No attendance figure or product list is documented.
19 March 2024: the pop-up at Got Sole
Two days after the festival closed, the brand turned up at Got Sole in Los Angeles on 19 March 2024. The record comes down to a recap on the brand’s own blog, the label’s account of its own booth. The entry delivers a date, plus 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 records a collaborative product exclusive to that weekend. Anything more would be fabrication.
29 March 2024: the drop of the Dodger Collection
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. March closed with the Dodger Collection, published on the brand’s blog on 29 March 2024. It is likewise the only documented headwear inside a named collection, and that matters practically. The store’s hat collection returns no products as of September 2026, 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 then describe the contents the way the brand did.
April 2024: Trapstar out of London
Evidence from a partner outweighs a reseller’s caption and removes the question of who authorized what. The strongest evidence here belongs to Trapstar: the London label published the collaboration from its own verified accounts in April 2024. A Trapstar collaboration hoodie is catalogued on a resale platform at about $150 retail under a spring 2025 season code. Beyond the hoodie, no official piece list is documented. That figure is reported rather than confirmed, because resale platforms hold secondhand records. Among every entry here, this is the one to lean on hardest.
1 August 2025: Rhime shoes
The Rhime Shoes were listed at about $100, down from about $200, at the brand’s own store as of September 2026; prices change. Rhime USA carried footwear into the catalogue, its shoes published to the store on 1 August 2025. Most of its collaborations never get a permanent catalogue home, so tracing them means reading dated posts. Nothing beyond the store listing turned up as launch coverage. The store’s own collaborations collection holds only this product. The entry is a product record with a publication date, not an announced event.
24 July 2026: the Stinc Team drop
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. No press release accompanied it in the material reviewed. Shorts in it sat 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 just circulates
A dated source carries everything above, and three further items lack one. 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 the brand sells them, yet 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. Third is an LRG collaboration at ComplexCon, named once in the brand’s own press release with no date attached. Both of those lack independent confirmation, and calling either a licensed collaboration would be a guess dressed as a fact. The two columns are kept apart in the table on purpose. Music artists are also named in that press release as past merch collaborators, which is the brand’s undated claim about itself.
