Story & heritage
The Core Nylon Short is one of ALD’s most direct links to basketball, park and beach dressing. It is plain enough to be worn every day, but the small embroidered logo keeps it within the brand’s visual system.
ALD’s description of its influences includes classic hip hop, basketball and Santis’s Queens-and-Greece upbringing; a short like this sits exactly at that intersection.
Materials & craft
The official details list nylon fabric, an embroidered logo at the lower leg, an elasticated waistband with flat braided drawstrings, side-seam hand pockets, one back flap pocket and 100% polyamide construction.
How to choose & style
Black is the clean base for graphic tees and loafers; brighter colours read more court-side. The five-inch inseam works best with simple socks and low-profile sneakers.
