As seen on Unboxed Issue 56. The Unboxed newsletter covers the most important stories of the week across sneakers, sports, and fashion straight to your inbox on Mondays.

Earlier last week, a video of Bill Clinton went semi-viral in streetwear circles as he had on the Molina Knit Sweater from one of the hottest brands in the world: Aimé Leon Dore.

I had so many questions. Does he have a stylist now? Is there someone on his team like Greg from Succession doing cultural temperature checks for “cool brands” to make him more relatable? Was someone at ALD behind this? It’s safe to say that Clinton would be on the bottom list of people who we expected to wear ALD, even with how popular the brand has become in recent years. With collaborations and co-signs ruling the world of sneakers and fashion, brands have been hyper aware of who is seen in their products.

Whether this is good or bad for the brand remains to be seen, but they’ve successfully transitioned from an “if you know you know” label to a full on household name.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
