Travis Kelce is proving that great style never goes out of fashion—especially when it’s linked to memorable moments with Taylor Swift. Ahead of the latest episode of his “New Heights” podcast, Swifties were quick to spot a familiar outfit in the teaser clip released on Tuesday.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end appeared on the show wearing two key pieces he had previously donned during romantic outings with the global pop icon.
Among the repeat fashion choices was a black Tribeca trucker hat, which Kelce first wore on a December date night with Swift in New York City. While he originally paired it with a chunky beige cardigan and a simple black tee, this time, he kept things casual, swapping out the cozy look for a laid-back blue Marni short-sleeved shirt as he joined the podcast remotely.
Kelce’s bright knit shirt also caught fans’ attention—it was the same one he wore while grabbing dinner with Swift in October 2024. Notably, both the hat and shirt were purchased from the same upscale designer store in NYC, further fueling speculation that these pieces might have a special meaning.

Fans Speculate Swift’s Appearance on the Podcast
With Kelce’s fashion choices heavily linked to past date nights, Swifties couldn’t help but read into the details—many convinced that Swift herself might be making a surprise guest appearance on the podcast.
The speculation intensified when the official “New Heights” podcast account posted a teaser, playfully inviting fans to guess the mystery guest for Wednesday’s episode.
“Happy New Heights Eve to all who celebrate,” the account tweeted, sharing a photo of Travis and Jason Kelce with the cryptic caption:
“Any last-minute guesses for our guests? (Hint: this picture might help).”
Swifties immediately flooded the comments section, drawing connections between Kelce’s wardrobe choices and past sightings with Swift.
- “Call me insane but he wore that shirt out with Taylor and that hat out with Taylor,” one fan observed.
- “That’s the same blue shirt Travis was wearing when he was on a date with Taylor,” another excitedly pointed out.
- A third fan simply posted side-by-side images from Kelce and Swift’s past outings, writing, “Oh, you know what you’re doing … and it isn’t kind ?.”
However, the excitement was short-lived—as the special guests were eventually revealed to be NHL stars Brady and Matthew Tkachuk, dashing Swifties’ hopes of hearing from their favorite singer.
Tkachuk Brothers Join for a Sports-Fueled Episode
Despite the initial Swift-related buzz, fans were still in for an action-packed episode, as the Tkachuk brothers—two of the biggest names in professional hockey—joined the Kelce brothers for an exclusive sit-down.
Brady and Matthew Tkachuk have been making headlines of their own, particularly after both were involved in fights just nine seconds into Team USA’s game against Canada during last week’s Four Nations Face-Off. The tournament marked a historic moment for the Tkachuk siblings, as it was the first time they played together on the same professional hockey team.
- Matthew Tkachuk, 27, is a star forward for the Stanley Cup-winning Florida Panthers.
- Brady Tkachuk, 25, serves as the captain of the Ottawa Senators.
Although Swifties didn’t get the surprise they were hoping for, the Kelce-Tkachuk crossover still delivered a high-energy episode, bringing together two of the most famous sets of brothers in professional sports.
Meanwhile, Kelce’s outfit choice continues to fuel speculation about his relationship with Swift—especially as rumors swirl that the couple recently took a private getaway together before returning to the U.S.
While fans may not have gotten a Swift appearance, Kelce’s subtle nod to their past date nights ensures that the Swift-Kelce love story remains front and center—both on and off the field.
