Following its buzzy collaborations with Willy Chavarria and JW Anderson earlier this fall, Ugg is at it again with another designer shoe tie-up.
On Tuesday, the Deckers Brands-owned footwear company revealed its debut collaboration with New York-based fashion and lifestyle brand Aimé Leon Dore.
For the upcoming release, the duo has taken on a moccasin-inspired slipper silhouette with an upper made from premium full-grain leather. Features of the new Ugg ALD Slipper include debossed Ugg branding alongside Aimé Leon Dore’s signature Queens Crest. The style arrives in two colorways: “Dark Coffee Bean” and “Goldenrod.”
To bring the collaboration to life, the two brands tapped legendary hip-hop artists Redman and Method Man. Through a video campaign and stills, the longtime friends share unscripted conversations from a Harlem stoop while wearing the new Ugg ALD Slipper.

In the video, Ugg noted that the two campaign stars go beyond music as they reminisce about family, shared memories, and a life well lived. “Their chemistry and candor speak to a lasting bond built on mutual respect, a strong sense of self, and an approach to life that remains distinctly their own,” the brand stated.
The Ugg and Aimé Leon Dore collaboration will be available Nov. 12 at Ugg.com, Aimeleondore.com, select Ugg retail locations globally, Aimé Leon Dore flagship stores, and select retail partners worldwide.
This is the third major collaboration release from Ugg this fall. In October, Ugg revealed its debut collaboration with designer Jonathan Anderson and his namesake fashion label JW Anderson.
The collection included the Ugg x JW Anderson Loafer Boot and the Ugg x JW Anderson Loafer. Both shoe models were offered in three colorways — “Chestnut,” “Khaki” and “Orange” — and featured a rounded toe, box-stitching and the saddle strap detail across the vamp.
In September, the footwear brand launched its first collaboration with Willy Chavarria. The collection, which FN first previewed ahead of the designer’s spring/summer 2027 runway show in June, featured five unisex footwear styles — the Ugg x Willy Chavarria Guard Boot, Biker Boot, Relaxed Boot, Otzo clog and Hotel Chavarria slipper — alongside a collaborative “Hug It” T-shirt and a pair of socks.
Last month also saw Ugg open the doors to its first new U.S. store in five years. Located at 129 North 6th Street in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, the 3,001-square-foot store showcases the label’s range of shoes, apparel and accessories.
The Brooklyn opening came just one week after Deckers Brands reported its latest earnings results. The Goleta, Calif.-based company reported that net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2027 increased 3.5 percent to $1.48 billion compared to $1.43 billion in the same year-ago period. Net income for the three months ended Sept. 30 rose 16.8 percent to $313.1 million, or $2.31 a diluted share, from $268.2 million, or $1.82 a diluted share, the prior year.
Net sales at Ugg in the second quarter increased 3.5 percent to $786.4 million compared to $759.6 million over the same period.
