Travis Kelce just walked into Allegiant Stadium and made the whole place shine.
Not only that, but he kept his promise to make a leap in fashion ahead of the 2024 Super Bowl.
Before taking the field with his fellow Chiefs to face the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl, Kelce headed to Las Vegas Stadium in Amiri’s custom black glitter suit, with a black T-shirt, shoes and sunnies.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end, 34, teased his look ahead of the big game, talking about a recent episode The Pat McAfee Show that he sought inspiration from his own closet.
“I have a few different things that I have in my closet that I could pull out. But you already know, man, we’re in Vegas, baby,” he said.
“The lights are on, man. You might see me in Sinatra, in Elvis Presley [outfit]”, continued Kelce. “I might have to bring out all the bells and whistles for this one.”
Kelce’s outfits often make headlines, whether he’s wearing Nike shoes and a velvet suit on a date night with girlfriend Taylor Swift, matching faded red sweats on the way to the Super Bowl, or a high-fashion Dior suit at Saturday night live.
In an interview with WSJ magazine last year, the NFL pro revealed that he’s an “impulse shopper” and that when it comes to choosing his daring outfit, “it’s all about it.”
Travis Kelce’s hottest moments
“I kind of enjoy the creative process of panicking to just throw something together,” he said.
He added that he knows some of these trendy, hype-beast ensembles — hotly debated on social media — aren’t “for everyone,” but he likes to take risks.
“I won’t be offended if someone says I look like a clown if I have a fun hat and some funky jeans. It is what it is, I’m going to have fun with it.”
“I mostly do it to put a smile on someone’s face,” he added.
Kelce also recalled the first big splurge he made right after turning pro, saying he spent a large portion of his check on a rare pair of Nike Air Max sneakers that weren’t even his size. “Earlier in my career, when they didn’t have all these sneaker apps, she wanted any size I could put in a shoe,” he explained.

Since then, he’s had the paycheck and the connections to build a footwear collection that would make any die-hard sneaker lover jealous. He even turned the bedroom into a closet that houses a collection of more than 300 sneakers alone.
In an interview with PEOPLE last September, Kelce shared how he likes to spend his days off the court, explaining that his downtime routine always includes a little online shopping.
“I’m a big online shopper, so I’ll jump online and grab a bunch of new stuff to throw around the house or in my closet,” he said. “Yes, the possibilities are endless.”
The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers will face off in Super Bowl LVIII, which will air on CBS on February 11th at 6:30pm ET.
