Your sock drawer is about to get an upgrade.
To celebrate its 40th anniversary, BCLC has teamed up with legendary Vancouver streetwear label Vancity Original on some truly special merch.
The collab’s centrepiece? A pair of BCLC x Vancity Original socks featuring the nostalgic Lottery Ticket Centre logo, reimagined on vintage-inspired striped crew socks. This limited-edition release is available only as a free gift with purchase when players spend $40 on any lottery products at participating lottery kiosks across the Lower Mainland—see the full list of participating locations here.
The promotion launches Aug. 29, 2025, and there will be no restocks. So if you want in, plan to stop by soon (or enter our contest down below).
A collab rooted in community
Unlike other gaming organizations, BCLC is a socially responsible, community-focused lottery provider, raising funds that benefit the people of British Columbia. Since its creation in 1985, BCLC has generated more than $29 billion in profits for the province, supporting health care, education and local programs.
BCLC’s very first major project helped fund Expo ’86, which brought the SkyTrain to life and transformed the Expo Centre into what we now know as Science World. Four decades later, their mission remains unchanged: supporting the people, places and programs that make this province thrive.
Similarly, Vancity Original has been repping Vancouver pride since 1998. The local brand is known for its bold designs, classic logo gear and limited-edition collabs that often sell out fast. This sock drop takes inspiration from both brands, blending another piece of local iconography with the unmistakable VANCITY style.
