Netflix’ s Joe Exotic may be behind bars in FMC Fort Worth but he’s still reportedly still reportedly managing to bring in various money-spinning business ventures.
The Tiger King star, who is currently serving 22 years in prison for animal abuse charges and a murder-for-hire plot, is set to become the face of a new clothing line.
Odain Watson, the owner of the streetwear brand, Odaingerous, told American site TMZ he wants to collab with the incarcerated wildlife owner on a limited edition line.
With Joe in jail, they’ve already been working on the details by chatting through prison phone calls and letters.

Odain revealed that his company first wrote to Joe in late March, and in the letter, pitched him on being the face of its next collection – and Joe was said to be “intrigued” by the offer.
The line, labelled “Revenge”, includes graphic T-shirts, hoodies and joggers with tiger graphics emblazoned on them along with his own face, naturally.
TMZ added that the clothing would feature images related to Joe’s up and down past, including betrayal, his music career, fake friends, and GW Zoo.

It remains unclear if a certain Carole Baskin would make an appearance on a tee.
The contracts are “close to being signed,” but both parties are “still negotiating profit-sharing”.
With the pair locked in talks, the line has been delayed because of Covid-19.
The life-threatening bug has reportedly had a knock-on effect with the legal mail and communication at FMC Fort Worth.
Odain explained letters have been stalled, so fans of Joe Exotic could be waiting a bit longer to get their hands on some jazzy threads.
Sadly, no pink sequin shirts will be making an appearance.
