AP ImagesThe saga of Drake‘s Air Jordan collaboration with his label, OVO, has been a long and tiresome one. But now, two years after he first made the announcement that he would be putting his Champagne Papi-spin on one of the most iconic shoes of all time, the rapper has given us not one, but three new photos of the kicks that are sure to give Yeezy’s a run for their money.
Posted on Instagram in rapid succession (3 photos in 4 minutes usually breaks the unwritten rules of the ‘gram, but we’ll let this one slide), the photos show the “OVO 6IX YEAR 8’s” in both black and white, each featuring the signature Jordan Jumpman logo and Drake’s own OVO owl insignia.

Only 21 days away, people. Let the countdown begin!
