Three addresses, and the state of the documentation behind them

In-person selling at That’s A Awful Lot Of Cough Syrup runs from three confirmed addresses: 7669 Melrose Ave and 312 W 5th St in Los Angeles, and 5410 Almeda Rd in Houston. None of the three shows up on a store locator, as the company’s site does not run one, and the addresses come from the label’s own social profile instead. Thinner documentation than a city guide would like, in other words, and it shapes everything below. Promethazine-codeine cough syrup, known as lean, is what alocs shorts the name refers to, which is context for the signage and nothing more. Shoppers turn up searching for alocs clothing, cough syrup clothing and a dozen other spellings, and the stores carry the same catalogue the website does. The label is a Los Angeles company founded by Desto Dubb, who started out selling clothes from a van in a downtown parking lot.

7669 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles

The Melrose Avenue store is the flagship, and the founder uses that address as his own display name on social media. It sits on the stretch of Melrose that has carried streetwear retail for decades, which makes it the easiest of the three to fold into a shopping afternoon. A No Jumper store opening next door was noted in reporting from 2023, and it is a useful landmark if it still stands. Long lines here and limited-edition drops are what coverage of the company describes, so a release day and a quiet weekday are different experiences. This is a recorded drop location too: the BlueBucksClan capsule, That’s A Awful Lot of Legendary, was released at this address on 28 April 2023. A collaboration pop-up with Cookies ran a few blocks along the same street, at 8360 Melrose Avenue, in April 2023, so this stretch has hosted the company more than once. Expect the core range at the usual levels, about $150 for a tee and about $200 for a hoodie at the company’s own store as of September 2026, and those numbers move.

312 W 5th St, Los Angeles

Downtown holds the second Los Angeles address, 312 W 5th St, and it is a different trip from Melrose in every practical sense. The business began downtown, since the founder sold clothes out of a van in a parking lot there before any storefront existed. The research turns up almost nothing beyond the address itself: no opening date, no floor plan, no dedicated coverage and no posted hours. Treat it as a confirmed listing rather than a profiled store. The same catalogue should be tracked by the stock here, including alocs shorts at about $150 and the denim cargo shorts at about $150 at the brand’s own store as of September 2026. Pair this one with downtown errands rather than with Melrose when you plan a route, as the two sit a long crosstown drive apart.

5410 Almeda Rd, Houston

The only confirmed location outside California is Houston, at 5410 Almeda Rd. It keeps its own store account on social media, separate from the main brand account, and that is the clearest sign it runs as a shop in its own right rather than as a stockist. A Houston store makes obvious sense for a label built in southern rap markets, though that is inference rather than documentation. Nothing establishes the store’s size, its opening date or its hours. The brand’s own about page describes running stores across Southern California, a phrase that plainly does not cover Texas, so the two statements sit awkwardly beside each other and neither carries a date. Anyone searching thats a awful lot of cough syrup Houston will find plenty of posts and very little verifiable detail.

Hollywood Park, Inglewood: what a temporary store actually looked like

Not every store this brand opens is permanent. For Rolling Loud California, held from 14 to 17 March 2024 at Hollywood Park in Inglewood, the label ran two onsite stores inside a carnival it built for the festival, arcade games and swing ride included. Real while it lasts and gone afterward, a pop-up address means an old post is not evidence that a shop exists today. The same caution applies to collaboration pop-ups the company has hosted inside other retailers’ stores. No recorded example of temporary retail under the awful lot of cough syrup name is clearer. Something announced for a weekend should be read as a weekend.

Ordering from the brand’s own online store

The brand operates its own online store, and no web address for it is printed in this guide, by design. It is a Shopify storefront holding roughly 154 products at the last count, across tees, hoodies, sweatpants, shorts, denim, workwear and accessories. Fit notes are posted per product and are not uniform, with most pieces described as true to size and a few explicitly running small, so read the product copy instead of assuming. Sizing runs XS to 3XL on most apparel, denim and workwear sell by waist from 28 to 44, and there is a small kids range. Stock is the real constraint rather than choice, since about 43 percent of size variants were sold out when the catalogue was checked in September 2026. No global size chart renders on the site and no washing instructions do either, a genuine gap when you are buying hand-dyed pieces unseen. The store also runs sale and deals sections, where mystery items sold at roughly half the standard price as of September 2026.

Shipping and returns, exactly as posted

The published terms are brief, and they are worth knowing before checkout. Domestic orders are stated to take up to five business days, and international orders up to fourteen. Both of those windows are upper bounds rather than guarantees. A refund must be requested within a month of purchase, a shorter window than some shoppers expect. Large domestic orders get free shipping, there is no free option on international shipping, and the published terms do not define what counts as large. The customer pays return shipping, so ordering two sizes of a hoodie at about $200 to try at home carries a real cost. No posted term covers exchanges, so plan around the refund window rather than assuming a swap is available.

What it was not possible to verify about these stores

Three gaps deserve plain statement rather than papering over. For none of the three stores has an opening date been posted. Current opening hours are published for no location either. Nor could it be confirmed that all three are still trading, which is the gap that matters most if you are getting in a car. There is no store locator to check against, and the addresses come from a social profile rather than a maintained page. Should a location close or move, the company’s own posts will almost certainly show it before any directory catches up. Call ahead, or read the store’s own posts for that day, and when a listing for cough syrup clothing quotes hours with total confidence, ask where it got them. For authenticity, the garment is what to judge rather than the shopfront: the yellow woven label, the posted fabric weights of 6.5 oz on classic tees and 16 oz on the classic hoodie, prices at the real levels, and a product name that actually appears in the label’s own catalogue.
