Okay, let’s talk OVO. You know, Drake’s brand, the one with the owl? It’s like, *everywhere*, right? And with that kinda popularity comes… well, a whole lotta fakes. I’ve seen some questionable owl hoodies in my day, let me tell ya.
So, how do you even tell if your OVO is legit? That’s the million-dollar question, isn’t it? The internet’s, like, a mixed bag. Some folks online are screaming “FAKE!” at anything that isn’t picture-perfect, while others are all “Nah, looks good to me!” It’s confusing af, tbh.
I was scrolling through Reddit the other day (as one does), and stumbled upon a thread where people were dissecting an OVO hoodie. Apparently, the drawstring situation is a big deal. Some legit ones don’t have drawstrings, apparently? But then someone else was saying the owl was missing an “R” at the bottom right. Like, seriously? Who even *looks* that closely? I mean, I guess you gotta if you’re trying to spot a fake.
And the tags! Don’t even get me started. Black tags, white tags, tags that say only “OVO” and nothing else… it’s a freakin’ tag jungle out there! My personal OVO hoodie, the one I’m pretty sure is real (got it from the OVO store, duh!), has a specific kind of tag, but I’m not about to tell you exactly what it looks like because then the fakers will just copy it, right? Gotta stay one step ahead, you know?
Honestly, sometimes I think it’s all a crapshoot. Like, you could buy something that looks *exactly* like the real deal, but it’s still a knockoff. And then you’re left feeling like a total chump.
Speaking of chumps, did you see that thread where someone suggested just buying a plain pink Gildan hoodie and getting an owl embroidered on it? Genius! I mean, it wouldn’t technically be OVO, but who cares? You’d have a custom “Hotline Bling” hoodie, and you’d save a ton of money. Plus, you could support a local embroidery shop. Win-win!
