Great, which country?

[–] nexas_XIII@lemm.ee 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Right? I'd wear the shit out of those

[–] lapommedeterre@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

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!

[–] Norgur@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (3 children)

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

[–] Nougat@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

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.

[–] Onionizer@geddit.social 3 points 2 years ago

Those are actually separate companies, Aldi Nord and Aldi Süd

[–] HeneryHawk@thelemmy.club 3 points 2 years ago

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

[–] callyral@kbin.social 13 points 2 years ago (6 children)

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

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago

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

[–] stinkycheese@lemm.ee 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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 3 points 2 years ago

This is all bad news

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

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

[–] TheBurlapBandit@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

I'd wear them because of the text tbh

[–] finn_der_mensch@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 years ago

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“.

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Your aldidas are fake

[–] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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.

[–] plactagonic@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

More stripes, more Adidas.

[–] SharkEatingBreakfast@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 years ago

They look kind of pre-used.

[–] smileyhead@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

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

[–] XTornado@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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.

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

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

[–] CarlsIII@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

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