When Taylor Swift showed up to Arrowhead Stadium on Saturday to watch boyfriend Travis Kelce take on the Miami Dolphins in the Chiefs’ playoff opener, Swift’s custom Kelce jacket deservedly garnered plenty of attention.
It was an incredible look, and Patrick Mahomes’ wife, Brittany, rocked a similar jacket for the frigid game in Kansas City.
Those first images had everyone wondering where Swift and Mahomes got the jackets. And it turned out that it came from within the NFL community: a custom job done by Kristin Juszczyk (the wife of 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk).
As those videos hit social media, Kyle was in the comments making sure his wife got the credit she deserved for the design. And during the Niners’ media availability on Tuesday, Kyle described how thrilled he’s been for Kristin.

Kyle said:
“Oh my God. Just pure joy. Just to see her get that recognition. She’s been grinding for years now, working so hard. So, I’m so happy to see her get her stuff out there and everybody see it. And people recognize it was hers.”
Here’s another look at the jackets:

He also added that both Vogue and Adam Schefter reached out about Kristin’s designs as Schefter wanted to make sure he credited her.
Fans especially enjoyed seeing how proud Kyle was of Kristin’s work. That’s what a supportive partner sounds like.
