That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup and how it issues product
Here product arrives in batches instead of a seasonal calendar. The brand’s own online store takes fresh lines every week or two, and its stores in Los Angeles and Houston sell them after that. Read on 29 September 2026, the publication dates in that store’s feed cluster hard: twelve products on 24 July 2026, eleven on 12 September, ten on 25 September. Long lines at the Melrose Avenue store and limited-edition drops turn up in press coverage of the label. No drop calendar is published anywhere. Stock empties fast, and that day 619 of 1,443 size variants were sold out, close to 43 percent.
Mystery items are the one ongoing mechanic: a mystery boxy fit tee tee at about $75, mystery shorts at about $50, at the brand’s own store as of September 2026. Those numbers are a snapshot, since prices and stock shift constantly. Restocks are often promised in listings for alocs clothing and cough syrup clothing; the brand has promised nothing of the kind. No restock policy is published, so a sold-out size may never return.
Reading the documented collaboration record
In date order, here is every collaboration and activation the research documents, and nothing is 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 logs the moment product went live, not the moment a deal was struck. Where a piece list or a price was never published, none 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. Several entries are thin, and they stay thin.
8 April 2023: the pop-up with Cookies
First by date is the collaboration with Cookies, the brand co-founded by Berner. It launched on 8 April 2023 as That’s A Awful Lot Of Cookies. The pop-up was staged at the Cookies store at 8360 Melrose Avenue. Note it as a dated event, not a catalogue entry. Because an outside publication covered it at the time, it sits in the confirmed column. No piece list and no prices appear in that coverage.
28 April 2023: BlueBucksClan, and That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary
A capsule with the Los Angeles duo BlueBucksClan followed three weeks later. Titled That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary, it was released on 28 April 2023 at the 7669 Melrose Avenue flagship. The drop honored the late Drakeo The Ruler, and every account of it leads with that. This is one of the few releases an outside publication documented at the time. The sourcing reaches to the event and the intent, not the fabric. Anyone building a catalogue of thats a awful lot of cough syrup collaborations should date this one and stop.
11 March 2024: the 310babii collaboration
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. It opens a March 2024 stretch that was busy even by this label’s standards, four activations in nineteen days. Even read against the store feed, the blog does not settle which products belonged to it. Nothing establishes the piece count, the colorways or the prices. The honest entry is a name and a date.
14 to 17 March 2024: Rolling Loud California
Rolling Loud California is the largest documented activation, staged from 14 to 17 March 2024 at Hollywood Park in Inglewood. On site the brand built a carnival, with arcade games and a swing ride, and it ran two onsite stores across the four days. The whole sourced description stops there, and it comes from the brand’s own release. A footprint of that size is not a capsule; product was sold, but the thing 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. 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. What survives is a recap on the brand’s own blog, the label’s account of its own booth. A collaborative product exclusive to that weekend is documented nowhere. The entry yields a date, plus the fact that the brand works conventions. Got Sole is a sneaker and streetwear convention, so this is trade-show retail, not a partnership. To inflate it further 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. Listed in the post are a hoodie, a tee, a fitted cap and a dad hat, and kids tees, the clearest piece list in this record. It is likewise the only documented headwear inside a named collection, and that matters practically. As of September 2026 the store’s hat collection returns no products, so no cap from it can be bought new. Whether any license sat behind the name is not established by the post. Date it to March 2024 and describe the contents as the brand did.
April 2024: Trapstar London
Evidence from a partner outweighs a reseller’s caption and removes the question of who authorized what. Trapstar holds the strongest evidence here, because the London label published the collaboration from its own verified accounts in April 2024. A resale platform catalogues a Trapstar collaboration hoodie at about $150 retail under a spring 2025 season code. Beyond the hoodie, no official piece list is documented. Because resale platforms hold secondhand records, that figure is reported rather than confirmed. This is the entry to lean on hardest of all of them.
1 August 2025: shoes from Rhime
Footwear entered the catalogue through Rhime USA, whose shoes were published to the store on 1 August 2025. The listing put The Rhime Shoes at about $100, down from about $200, at the brand’s own store as of September 2026; prices change. Because most of its collaborations never get a permanent catalogue home, tracing them means reading dated posts. Nothing beyond the store listing turned up as launch coverage. Inside the store’s own collaborations collection they are the only product. The entry counts as 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. The most recent documented collaboration is Stinc Team, published to the store on 24 July 2026. 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. In the material reviewed, no press release accompanied it. It is confirmed as product, a narrower claim than confirmed as a campaign.
What is confirmed, what is claimed, and what just circulates
Everything above stands on a dated source; three further items do not. The 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. 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 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 is an LRG collaboration at ComplexCon, named once in the brand’s own press release with no date attached. Independent confirmation is missing for both, so calling either a licensed collaboration would be a guess dressed as a fact. That press release also names music artists as past merch collaborators, which is the brand’s undated claim about itself. On purpose, the table keeps the two columns apart.
