Your AOL AIM Buddies are giving status: online. A snug, throwback beanie straight out of the AIM era: made for nights when your buddy list was full. A time when every login sound felt important, every screen name meant something, and every away message was basically poetry.

Put it on and you’re right back there: your AOL AIM Buddies list sliding open, your friends popping online one by one, the mix of green, red, and yellow icons lighting up your evening. Winamp is looping your favorite playlist. Your crush just set their away message to “brb, pizza rolls 🍕.” And somehow, that told you everything you needed to know.

The embroidered Buddies icon is redrawn in vector form from archived AIM assets, keeping the chunky proportions and pixel-era charm that made it instantly recognizable. The beanie itself is warm, snug, and built for everyday wear. Simple, cozy, and unmistakably nostalgic.

Wear it as a nod to the nights when being “online” still felt like logging into a world of your own.

Status: online.

Nostalgia: loaded.
