Travis Kelce Is One of the NFL's Best Dressed — See His Most Stylish Moments
Taylor Swift's game-day fashion may be the talk of the town, but her rumored beau's everyday looks are just as worthy of highlighting. When NFL star Travis Kelce isn't in his Kansas City Chiefs uniform, he's got quite the personal style. Known as one of the most stylish guys in the NFL, the tight end is always dressed to impress, whether he's posing for photos at a star-studded event or strolling into a sports venue.
He's previously compared the latter occasion — getting off the plane or bus and walking into a team facility — to a red carpet in itself. "I think it's a little bit more of a red carpet on the week-to-week and regular-season games in the NFL," he said in a 2021 interview with Complex, explaining the rise of NFL style compared to that of the NBA. "Without a doubt, I think the football world is starting to kind of come around to being that fashion-forward mentality."
"You can tell that his confidence is reflected in the way he dresses himself."
Kelce's version of "red carpet" and street style looks range from deconstructed suiting to unexpected patterns, often paired with cool kicks. (His footwear collection reportedly consists of around 300 sneakers.) His unique fashion sense is especially impressive considering he doesn't work with a stylist.
In fact, he does his own shopping at high-end boutiques like The Webster, which is where he discovered J. Logan Home, a lifestyle brand known for its printed cabana shirts. Kelce has since worn the label's signature Maison shirts, made of repurposed designer pocket squares and silk scarves, on several occasions. "I think that Travis is the epitome of the J. Logan Home guy," creative director Logan Horne tells POPSUGAR. "You can tell that his confidence is reflected in the way he dresses himself, and it definitely takes confidence to rock one of my signature Maison shirts because they are loud."
While the athlete favors luxury labels like Louis Vuitton and Chanel, he also often spotlights newer, emerging designers like Horne. "There are many guys and gals I have envisioned rocking one of my pieces, so when it happens in such an organic, unexpected way, especially on a fashionista like Kelce, it kind of legitimizes how I see myself as a designer, and hopefully how others see me too."
Most recently, Kelce was spotted ahead of the Chiefs-Vikings game on Oct. 8 wearing an outfit that caused quite the stir. He dressed in a white button-down, Nike shoes, and crushed-velvet pants that fans think resemble curtains belonging to Swift. The day before the Chiefs-Jets game on Sept. 30, he was also seen in New York City in black pinstripe trousers, an appropriate "New York New York" hat, and a Vetements tee saying "I'm not doing sh*t today." Earlier that day, he wore a plaid Lu'u Dan suit with frayed edges, holding sleek Louis Vuitton luggage.
For more formal events like award shows and TV appearances, Kelce's worked with one-off stylists for smart suiting that still felt true to his casual style. At the 2023 ESPYs in July, he wore an oversize cream blazer with wide-legged black pants and dress shoes, while he donned a double-breasted Dior ensemble for his "Saturday Night Live" debut in March.
Take a closer look at Kelce's most stylish moments ahead.

"My jaw hit the floor to be honest," Horne said of seeing Kelce wear his designs. "Since I founded J. Logan Home in 2020, it has been my goal to make it on a star athlete during their now iconic 'tunnel shots.'"
