Toronto based rapper Drake and his crew, OVO, have been collaborating on exclusive Jordan’s for several years now. After recent rumors of a F&F pair selling for over $40,000, new images of an OVO Air Jordan 8 in White have surfaced.
Drake’s first rendition of the Air Jordan 8 was an ode to his favorite college basketball coach, John Calipari. This pair never saw an official release to the public, and was eventually labeled a Friends and Family pair. Now, the 6 God is back to work on more variations of the eighth inline Jordan. This time decked in an all-white upper, the next OVO 8’s are extremely similar to the Champagne and Caviar pack that dropped in 2016. Drake’s version will feature a patterned gold heel plate that wraps around both sides of the shoe. Other splashes of color include gold hits throughout the sole as well as red Jumpman branding on the tongue. The upper appears to be made from high quality leather, which will likely give the shoe a comfortable weight and feel.
