Drake once famously said, “It didn’t mean anything unless it had a Swoosh.”<\/p>\n

The Canadian rapper, who grew up wearing Nike-branded items, has been collaborating with the Oregon footwear giant since their first pair of Air Jordan (an AJ10 in two colorways) in 2013. Almost a decade into their partnership, Drake and Nike are set to drop another collaborative sneaker this holiday season\u2014 the NOCTA x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Certified Lover Boy”<\/a>.<\/p>\n

First unveiled during his Certified Lover Boy<\/em> era, the release of this “CLB” Air Force 1 was apparently delayed due to production difficulties. Now, Drake fans might have one more reason to rejoice. A leak from sneaker account @ovrundr.io<\/a> is suggesting that there might be more Drake x Nike collaborations coming soon.<\/p>\n

A picture of six white Nike Swooshes neatly arranged in a row, and another of Drake wearing a shirt featuring a similar “6 swoosh” motif and the OVO owl logo were posted onto the account\u2014with @champagnepapi himself tagged\u2014alluding that a release is imminent.<\/p>\n

For the uninitiated, this isn’t the first time that Drake x Nike “6 Swoosh” has made an appearance. The 6 Swoosh is a tongue-in-cheek nod to his “6 God” title, and has been spotted on various apparel as early as 2019. This OVO x Nike apparel collection was originally rumored to arrive early 2020 but a drop never happened.<\/p>\n

Why did the 6 Swoosh collab resurface now? Will the 6 God be gifting us a surprise release? We can only hope.<\/p>\n
