October’s Very Own, or OVO, was founded in 2012 by internationally successful rapper Drake. The brand got its start with exclusive drops and pop-up merch stores based around Drake’s concerts and appearances. Since then, the clothing label has brought on other artists and created a unique clothing line that you can purchase through the online store.
OVO’s lineup includes a wide variety of clothing options, from t-shirts and hats sporting their recognizable owl logo to hoodies, knit sweaters, nylon pants, and denim jeans. You can find slides, boots, and other footwear on the website as well. If you want an OVO-branded bag, scarf, or necklace, you can find them here too.
Though OVO has come a long way from being Drake’s specialized and exclusive merch brand, there’s so much more you can get your hands on. All materials are extremely high-quality. You can shop online or purchase in-store at several brick-and-mortar locations across Canada.
