UGG and Aimé Leon Dore have announced their first-ever collaboration, and they’re starting with a house shoe that’s meant to leave the house. The UGG ALD Slipper is a leather moccasin with a plush lining, and the brands picked two of hip-hop’s longest-running partners, Method Man and Redman, to introduce it.
The slipper comes in two colorways, “Dark Coffee Bean” and “Goldenrod.” Both are built from full-grain leather with a stitched moccasin toe, a leather lace tied in a bow, and a dark rubber outsole. The Goldenrod pair pairs its bright yellow leather with a tan lace, while the Dark Coffee Bean pair goes deep brown. Inside is fuzzy white fur, and a black insole label carries both brands’ names. UGG’s lettering is debossed into the leather above a cursive Aimé Leon Dore, and ALD’s Queens Crest sits on the vamp.
The campaign puts the shoe in the hands of two friends who’ve worked together for decades. Method Man and Redman sit on a Harlem stoop in an unscripted video, talking about how long they’ve known each other and what they want out of this stage of their lives. Check out the full video below.
The lookbook shows how far the slipper can stretch. The “Coffee Bean” pair appears with yellow ribbed socks under a long herringbone coat, and again with desert camo pants and a hooded leather coat. The “Goldenrod” pair sits under navy sweatpants and a color-blocked knit cardigan. It’s ALD founder Teddy Santis’ take on nostalgic New York style, paired with UGG’s comfort.
The Aimé Leon Dore x UGG Slipper releases on November 12th at 12pm ET on the UGG and Aimé Leon Dore websites, as well as at select retailers. Check out the campaign video below.
