Drake's "Summer Sixteen" pop-up shop is headed for New York City this weekend, the Toronto rapper announced on Instagram Wednesday morning. The pop-up shop will be in NYC's Bowery neighborhood this Thursday through Sunday at 208 Bowery.
The store will sell merchandise from his ongoing "Summer Sixteen" tour. The merch includes a sweatshirt that reads "REVENGE" in prominent yellow letters. Other shirts include the name of the tour, screen prints of Drizzy's face, his signature praying hands emoji, and some of his famous catchphrases.
Although artists like Kanye West, Justin Bieber, and even Drake tourmate Future have moved towards making their tour merchandise into fashion statements, the gear from Drake's "Summer Sixteen" tour has bucked the trend. Whereas Bieber was hawking $1,700 leather jackets in Barneys, Drake has so far been offering a relatively tame and simple collection of tour merch. He also handed out free T-shirts with the name of his album at a previous pop-up. It's certainly possible that the NYC pop-up will bring something more high end, but so far there's been no indication that Drizzy is going for high fashion.
If you're interested in checking out all the merchandise that Drake has to offer, you can head down to his "Summer Sixteen" pop-up store at 208 Bowery in NYC starting Thursday. The store will only be open through this Sunday, Aug. 7 though. So if you want to grab stuff, make sure to mark your calendars and get it while you can.
