Hi there,

How do you say this designer's product: AIGLE?
The 'AI-' is pronounced 'a' sound or 'i' sound?
The word 'AI-' is 'aisle' is prononced 'i' whilst 'AI-' is 'aim' is prononced 'a'. So it is so confusing. can you help?

Thanks a lot
pete

I see the company uses an eagle for the logo. They make boots, right? Is it French for "eagle"?
