Highlights from the offering from the Toronto-based imprint are the two letterman jackets, which come in 'white/blue' and 'black/yellow/grey' colorways.The letterman jackets are especially eye-catching because they harken back to Archie and Friends, with "Same City, Same Friends" lettering scrawled beneath the iconic Owl logo.
The back graphic features "2008" lettering alongside the text "Same City, Same Friends." Additional "O" patches are featured across the chest. The shoulders also feature the "All Country Champions" banners, which are steam pressed.
The varsity-inspired collection pieces also include additional apparel items like heavy cotton hoodies, sweatpants, and tees. These pieces come in seven colors including black, brown, heather gray, merlot paisley, lilac paisley, camo, and light blue. The tees, on the other hand, come in three colors: black, grey, and white.
All the additional pieces, including the hoodies, sweatpants, sweatshirts, and tees, feature similar branding, with the "October's Very Own" and "2008" lettering being common. Moreover, OVO's iconic Owl logo also makes an appearance throughout the entire collection.
The collection was accompanied by a campaign featuring the musical artist Blue Bucks Clan. The West Coast duo, which includes Jeeezy and DJ, are seen in the campaign wearing the Collegiate collection pieces. Both the artists are seen wearing the Collegiate Hoodie and Collegiate Sweatpants set in black and grey colors.
The Collegiate collection follows a previous collaboration between the Toronto-based label and Hot Boys. Drake's label had a busy summer season and is now gearing up for a busy winter season.
