Nike has unveiled a new design for the Toronto Raptors City Edition jersey. Remaining locally proud, the Toronto Raptors have partnered with Drake's OVO company to design the black and gold garment.
The merchandise was inspired by the old-school vision from the 90s merged with the "Drake Night" limited items. On the pieces, there is a six-pointed chevron arrow that recalls the number of districts in Toronto. There is also a stamp on the jerseys that reads "North," to make the statement that it "represents a territory all our own." The City Edition jersey is made from polyester double knit mesh with heat-applied twill and sold at $130.
Currently, the City Edition jersey is only available at Real Sports and on OVO's online website, which is only available for Canada.
