The name is pronounced like so, "Air- Oh- Poss- al. " And an easy way to remember this, is that the prefix "Aero" is actually the definition of "air" in the Greek language, so the way it sounds is the actual meaning. Also, it is important to note that the "t" in the name is silent.

Please keep in mind that Aeropostale is a french word when you are attempting to pronounce it. Aero is pronouced like the word arrow. Post is pronouced like pasta without the a. Finally the ale is pronounced like the letter L. Written phonetically the word would be air-oh-passt-el

Correct French/Spanish pronunciation is "ayy-ro-poast-ahl" or "eye-erro-poast-ahl. " But if you want to get the correct pronunciation that your local (I presume American) store uses, call the store and see how they say it when they answer. Make sure you have a question ready about a sale or something so you aren't rude!

It's one I have had a hard time with as well. I've come to the conclusion that it is: (aero) like aero-plane and (postale) with the "a" sound like apple, with the "e" silent. Hope that helps and good luck!
