TL;DR
- The OVO x Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collection has officially launched — including hoodies, tees and accessories inspired by the Turtles’ comic-book beginnings.
- The capsule draws from early sketches and archival artwork by the TMNT co-creators, offering a raw, origin-story aesthetic.
- Items are available now online and in selected stores, priced at premium streetwear levels (for example: the hoodie retails at approximately US $168).
What’s the story behind the collection?
Drake’s streetwear label OVO (October’s Very Own) has joined forces with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise to deliver a capsule collection marked by its throwback to the Turtles’ first comic-book life. The OVO website describes the drop as revisiting “those beginnings … using early sketches and archival artwork.”
The messaging emphasizes “Underground Origins” — a nod to how the TMNT started as a self-published comic by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird in the 1980s that exploded into pop culture.
In short: This isn’t a standard licensed cartoon tee collab — it’s a premium brand taking the lore of the Turtles seriously and packaging it for the fashion-conscious fan.
What’s in the collection
Here are some of the key pieces and design characteristics:
- The signature piece: the OVO x TMNT Hoodie — 100% cotton fleece, relaxed fit, double-lined hood, with graphic front print and embroidery on sleeve.
- Other items: All-over-print graphic tees (e.g., “All Over Print Tee – Black”), black sweatshirts, keychains and accessories.
- Design aesthetic: Black as base, minimalist branding, but clearly TMNT-centric visuals – archival sketches, heroes vs. villains references, and a balance between “light and dark, creation and chaos, origin and evolution.”
- Price-tier info: For example the hoodie is listed at US $168. (Regional pricing at other currencies likewise.)
How and where to buy
The collection is available now both online on OVO’s website and in select physical stores.
Shipping details (example): The hoodie site notes free shipping on orders over US $150 in some regions; items like this may be “final sale” for limited-edition drops.
For those interested: act quickly — limited-edition drops often sell out, and speculative resale value may rise for sold-out sizes.
