About Aime Leon Dore
2014 · Teddy Santis
Teddy Santis founded Aimé Leon Dore (French for "Beloved Leon of Gold" — a nod to his father) in Queens in 2014. The brand reads as a love letter to early-90s Polo Sport / Tommy Hilfiger Americana filtered through Greek-Astoria diner-and-bodega NYC. Heavyweight cottons, washed twills, and basketball-era nostalgia. Santis was named Creative Director of New Balance Made in USA in 2020.

Why it's in our catalog: Streetwear that takes garment construction seriously — composition labels run heavier (240+ GSM cotton, terry-cloth blends) than most $200 streetwear competitors. Useful as a benchmark of "premium streetwear" for FabricIQ's brand-tier comparisons.
