Shortly after the event was over, Drake called his appearance his “biggest moment yet” before quickly clarifying that it was his “most nerve racking moment yet.” For a man that has played huge, sold-out arena shows and hosted Saturday Night Live, it’s curious that this would feel so big to him, but it might have to with the reported $19 million that Apple has agreed to pay him to essentially be a brand ambassador for Connect and Apple Music.
In classic Drake fashion, he rocked a vintage Apple varsity jacket to the conference, which he told the crowd that he got it “on the Internet.” Fashion blogs immediately began to speculate where the jacket had come from. Complex Style managed to reach an eBay seller who successfully auctioned off a jacket which looks identical to the one Drake wore today for $825.
The seller, named Jake, told Complex that he was surprised to see Drake in the jacket and was pretty sure it was the same one. The jacket was apparently given to Apple employees in the ’90s as a gift. He added that he has one more of the jackets to sell that is currently unlisted.
For those looking to snatch up a similar look, eBay has some options, including this jacket that's currently going for $499:
