Travis Kelce made a statement off the field on Sunday, wearing a reimagined version of the Canadian tuxedo for the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Cleveland Browns in Ohio.
Kelce’s outfit featured a standout denim set by Los Angeles-based Earthing VIP. The look, which included a jacket and matching pants, was made from reworked denim covered in delicate crocheted lace. The intricate detailing gave a vintage appeal to the denim silhouette.

For footwear, Kelce opted for Air Jordan XV PE sneakers, a retro-inspired design featuring a sleek woven upper that complemented the texture of the outfit. He finished the look with a white beanie and a black Bottega Veneta duffel bag, adding a touch to the monochromatic denim ensemble.
Taylor Swift fans quickly highlighted the lacework in Kelce’s outfit, suggesting that Swift — known for her affinity for DIY projects — could have crafted the piece herself for her boyfriend. However, both the jacket and the pants are available for purchase at Earthling VIP for $2,250 each.
Kelce’s sartorial moment came just hours before the Chiefs secured a win over the Browns, solidifying his on-field and off-field presence. His redefined take on the Canadian tuxedo highlighted the growing trend this year, especially among country music stars as seen at the People’s Choice Country Awards in September with Shania Twain, Shaboozey and many others opting for doubled-down denim.
Initially known for his streetwear-inspired looks in early 2023, Kelce has gradually embraced a more refined aesthetic over the past year. In 2024, the athlete has been seen in tailored silhouettes and sporting high-end luxury brands like Gucci and Dior, integrating bold colors and striking accessories while attending high-profile events with Swift or even when he is flying solo.
