Short answer: if you live in the EU and want a graphic streetwear brand with a mascot, RIPNDIP has the biggest catalogue and the most famous character, tokidoki the cheapest tees, Lazy Oaf the widest illustrated range. OKU is the small one: organic cotton, printed or embroidered to order in the EU, free EU delivery with no customs step.

Sources, read on 3 November 2026: product feeds and product pages of ripndip.com (France prices from the French market of the same site), lazyoaf.com (prices in pounds; the euro price at checkout was not readable), tokidoki.it (prices in US dollars; no French market on the site), and the shipping policy page of each site. OKU: our own product pages and shipping page.
Where the other three are better
- RIPNDIP: the heaviest hoodie of the four (400 g/m²), a cheaper beanie than ours, a catalogue about thirty times bigger, and a mascot people recognise on sight. It also has physical stores, which we do not.
- tokidoki: the lowest tee price of the four, and a whole universe of characters plus collaborations with Hello Kitty and Friends. If you collect, it has far more to collect.
- Lazy Oaf: the widest range of cuts (dresses, knitwear, kidswear) and a strong illustrated style with years behind it. Our range is unisex basics only.
Where OKU is different
- No customs step in the EU. Pieces are printed or embroidered in the EU and shipped from Latvia or Spain, with free delivery to the 27 EU countries. Orders from the UK or the US can involve duties, prepaid or not depending on the brand.
- Organic cotton across the range. Our tees, beanie and tote are 100% organic cotton; hoodies and sweatshirts mix organic cotton with recycled polyester. None of the three other brands states organic cotton on the product pages we read.
- Embroidery, not only print. The OKU Embroidered Hoodie (€85), the embroidered beanie (€52) and the OKU Hanko Embroidered Cap are stitched to order. If you are unsure which finish suits you, our embroidered vs printed hoodie guide explains the difference.
- A quieter mascot. Kio is a calm character, often half asleep, drawn in a Japanese-inspired style (Tokyo at night, Kyoto mornings). To be clear: nothing is made in Japan.
Which one should you pick?
- You want the loudest graphics and the biggest choice: RIPNDIP.
- You want characters to collect and the lowest tee price: tokidoki.
- You want illustrated pieces beyond tees and hoodies: Lazy Oaf.
- You live in the EU and want a calm mascot, organic cotton and no customs surprise: OKU. Start with the Kio collection, or a gift set such as the OKU Cosy Set (hoodie, beanie and OKU Leaf Socks, €145).
