This ALDI spring apparel collection is being launched by the grocer in the US as a way for shoppers to wear their prowess for the brand on their sleeve and get ready for warmer weather. The ALDI Gear range consists of a vest, joggers, a pullover, a kids pullover, wide leg sweatpants for ladies, a T-shirt, accessories and more that are all priced under the $20 price point. The product lineup comes in a wide range of sizes to suit the whole family.
Vice President of National Buying Joan Kavanaugh commented on the ALDI spring apparel collection saying, "Every time we drop new Aldi-branded merchandise in our Finds aisle, our fans tell us they want more Aldi Gear. This year, we’re going big for some of our tiniest shoppers by introducing Aldi Gear for kids for the first time. From pullovers and sweats to sneakers, we’re celebrating multigenerational love for Aldi by giving fans big and small what they’ve asked for.”
