Tiger King’s Joe Exotic has become the face of a new streetwear collection featuring printed images of treacherous, betrayals and fake friends.
The infamous 57-year-old tiger handler, who is currently serving a 22-year prison sentence, is believed to have obtained the details of the business from his cell.
According to TMZ, the owner of fashion brand Odain Watson asked Joe to partner with him on a limited collection for the Odaingerous brand.
A contract is “close to being signed” as the two parties agree on the final financial terms.
Odain appears to have confirmed the news on the brand’s social media page.
The range of clothing, known as the ‘Revenge’ collection, will feature prints of Joe’s face as well as references from the Netflix mega-hit series.

One of the basic pieces of the collection is believed to be a printed t-shirt featuring a leather jacket decorated with tiger stripes.
Joe Exotic and staff at the GW Zoo in Oklahoma were propelled into the limelight when Netflix released the bizarre Tiger King docuseries on March 20.
According to the streaming giant, more than 64 million homes worldwide have tuned in to watch the shocking documentary series.

Filled with twists and turns, the documentary details the bitter dispute between Joe and his arch nemesis Carole Baskin, and also sheds light on America’s heartbreaking big cat trade.
The tiger handler, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, was eventually sentenced to 22 years in federal prison for a contract murder plot, falsification of records, and a series of animal abuse violations.
Joe has also developed a kind of unusual cult after the series aired.
Among other products that are now available, fans can buy Joe Exotic condoms and even animal print bikinis.
