Travis Kelce gave NFL alum Beau Allen the pricey designer shirt off his back — and Taylor Swift encouraged it.
Allen revealed during Monday’s episode of the “Green Light with Chris Long” podcast that Kelce had invited him to the Kansas City Chiefs playoff game against the Houston Texans Saturday night.
“Kels called me up, and … he’s like, ‘You’re coming to this game. Don’t make me regret this,’” Allen, 33, recalled, noting that he saluted and responded, “Yes, sir!”
When Long asked whether he had met Swift at the matchup, Allen shared that he “did.”
“She’s cool, man. She led with a compliment,” he told Long and Nate Collins, claiming that the pop superstar, 35, said she thought he was “funny.”
“I was just like, ‘Oh, wow, I really wasn’t expecting a compliment out of you. Like, thank you.’”
Allen then went into how he ended up with the Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Suede Shirt ($11,900) Kelce wore unbuttoned atop a white T-shirt as he arrived at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri before the matchup.
“I complimented Travis on his jacket; he just f–king gave it to me, so — it’s pretty slick,” the former nose tackle gushed.
“And honestly, I was like, ‘I don’t think it’s gonna fit me,’ and Taylor’s like, ‘Yeah, it’ll definitely fit. Put it on.’”
According to Allen, the tight end, 35, told him, “If it fits you, you can have it. I’m never gonna wear it again.”
Allen was admittedly dumbfounded but tried the garment on, and it fit.
“I was kinda disappointed ’cause I used to be a big f–kin’ boy, and now I’m wearing the same clothes as him,” Allen quipped.
Before beating the Texans 23-14 and securing a spot in the AFC Championship Game against the Buffalo Bills, Kelce showed up to the field in style.
He paired the Bottega Veneta button-down and white undershirt with Diesel Relaxed Jeans 1996 D-Sire 0pgah ($575/$345 on sale), Timberland x Supreme New York 6-Inch Premium Waterproof Boot in Embossed Diamond Plate Pink (ORP $248, according to Instagram accounts @stylebykelce and @chiefs.talk) and a multicolored Supreme New York Hand-Tied Beanie (ORP $54).
