Kristin Juszczyk custom jacket
Many people have wondered when Taylor would wear an 87 jersey at a game and I’m delighted that the moment has come in such a fashionably fun way courtesy of #KristinJuszczyk - wife of 49ers player Kyle Juszczyk - who has taken to repurposing old jerseys into fabulous custom coats like this one.
To opt for something creative and lovingly handmade has been a repeated approach in Taylor’s football spectator style that has been fun to observe. From vintage, local KC businesses, women-owned small businesses, or handmade items like this one. “It’s time we reinvent the jersey,” Kristin said to NBC. "All these people want to represent their favourite players so what better way to turn a jersey into a jacket” especially when temps plummet. As someone well aware and well versed with communicating through her style I love the intention she’s taken to highlight and carve a space for stylish game day pieces for women. Items that are fashion and function and fandom and football and and and.
this woman is my new hero! she sewed her own Crosby puffer jacket inspired by Taylor Swift’s 87 jacket.
I have 3 Crosby jerseys (all second hand or on deep discount) and one is way too big and I am wondering if it’s enough fabric for this and whether I, who made my daughter a dress one time 20+ years ago, could manage it.

Gant ‘Blank Canvas Project x Kilo Kish Bouclé Varsity Jacket’ - $1,800.00 (sold out)
Rather than opt for actual Chiefs merchandise, Taylor opted for one of her go-to outerwear brands in Chiefs-approved colours that also included some stars (do u like dem?). I’ve found that on a number of occasions opting for Chiefs colours in otherwise normal street style garments has been her strategy for away games.
This particular jacket was part of a trio of designs Gant executed in collaboration with artistic talents as part of their “Blank Canvas Project” campaign. The concept being to “[transform] the quintessential symbol of American Sportswear into wearable works of art.” The artist in question, Kilo Kish, said the “inspiration behind [her] design was Ivy League culture” - an extension on the themes she explored on her album American Gurl. As with much of Gant’s ethos, the brand’s objective to create modern pieces that are not only heirloom quality but that riff on Americana athletics is such a natural integration into Taylor’s game day style. The added bonus is that each of the Blank Canvas designs had 100% of its sale proceeds go towards a charity of the artist's choosing - something I'm sure Taylor could get behind having done her own share of philanthropic donations on each of the stops on the Eras Tour.
Kilo added when designing the jacket, “When people see the jacket, I want them to feel the playfulness and I want them to feel like it’s personalized and almost homemade looking.” That homemade feeling has been a personal touch also present through Taylor’s game day fashion. Where, in a world of seemingly endless options, Taylor has shown a level of care and intention to opt for small businesses (local to KC or women-owned) or items that are handmade (Kristin Juszczyk’s jacket and Kut the Knit’s crocheted beanie as just two examples).
As for the ‘CTFL’ on the jacket - my best guess (as confirmed by the artist themselves) is the FL is a reference to Kilo’s home state of Florida and the CT to Gant's headquarters in Connecticut. Which is also paid homage to in Gant’s FW 2023 collection with varsity jackets honouring New Haven, Connecticut and its Ivy League school Yale that Kilo also wore in campaign imagery for Gant.
In casa you didn’t know, 49ers wag Kristin Juszczyk did the jacket. Kristin it’s one of my favorite wags and it’s so fun to watch bc of her outfits, she does every single thing she have on for EVERY SINGLE GAME. In this season she has do a few outfits for other wags and players, wags like Brittany Mahomes and now Taylor Swift
What’s so cool about Taylor’s jacket is that Kristin Juszczyk, who’s married to a 49ers player, made it for her! Plus he was hyping Kristin up on Twitter all night about it, so cute!
she killed it, it looks so good!!!
this is the really the exact energy i need from all men

unrelated to Nick, but Kristin Juszczyk is my favorite WAG by far. She seems so nice and genuine, and I appreciate the fact that she has her own thing even if it is still football related 
I love Kristin! Did you see she made the jacket Taylor Swift is wearing tonight?? She seems cool. Lauren should ask her to make something Nick related. Unless that would “distract” him from his priority
