ALDO has always kept up with the times. With 53 years in the industry and over 1,500 global stores, the Canadian heritage brand has held its rightful claim as a must-go destination for footwear aficionados looking to stay on top of the latest trends. Most recently, ALDO tapped New York Knicks’ Jordan Clarkson to curate a selection of footwear and accessories capturing his uninhibited spirit. References to cowboy core see the brand continuing to draw inspiration from pop culture and spotlighting fashion’s revived love for a classic silhouette: the loafer. ALDO’s campaign imagery spotlights 2021 NBA 6th Man of The Year’s subversive fashion identity and the style savant’s knack for putting together refined, edgy ensembles seamlessly blending high and low fashion items.

The partnership celebrates a new era in fashion, where authenticity and individuality are prioritized through unbridled expression. For a touch of western mischief, the cowboy-inspired boot “Guthrie” arrives in a tonal cowhide makeup and an all-black construction, designed with intricate embroidery on the back shaft and a chunky Cuban heel. For loafers, there’s the spike-adorned “Zollo,” which features silver-toned hardware along the topline and tongue to visually contrast its glossy, black exterior. The retro “Buckley” loafer showcases a ’50s-style white overlay at the tongue and toecap to offset an all-black construction. A sophisticated lace-up shoe, “Rocco” offers a pop of drama to any ensemble with a textural checkerboard pattern embellishing the toecap.The utility-forward, lace-up “Doublezero” boots in black and khaki suede feature a sturdy rubber sole with ample grip to transition into the colder months of the year. For office-bound professionals, two messenger bags in black leather (“Bruguu”) and brown suede (“Hildebradd”) offer ample compartment storage and an elegant, streamlined silhouette for effortless transport throughout the day. In ALDO’s accompanying campaign, Jordan Clarkson dons the footwear options with various all-denim outfits, tailored suits and smart business casual ensembles to reflect his eye-catching sensibilities. With a touch of rebellion and a pinch of urban street style, Clarkson showcases the line’s aesthetic versatility through a modern lens.
