Claire Kittle Talks Game Day Style, the Super Bowl, and What Comes Next
Before Taylor Swift was putting on a fashion show from the sidelines of the Chiefs’ games every weekend, there was Claire Kittle. Kittle is the 29-year-old wife of George Kittle, the longtime tight end for the 49ers. Yes, tight end is the same position Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plays on the Chiefs. In fact, the two are friendly—Kelce and Kittle are founding members of Tight End University. But it would be reductive to refer to Claire Kittle as the “Taylor of the 49ers.” For the sliver of the Venn diagram where “NFL fans” and “fashion lovers” overlap, Kittle is a household name. And her legend is every bit deserved.
Elevating Game Day Style
Along with her fellow 49ers WAG Kristin Juszczyk, Kittle has been redefining the idea of Game Day Style. Gone are the days of oversize jerseys from the stadium gift shop. In 2024, WAGs are going all out.
- Posh Claire in black-and-white Louboutin knee-highs, a slinky black catsuit, and a floor-length leather trench coat
- Sporty Claire in vintage 49ers boxing shorts and a trucker hat
- Fashion Claire in custom-made feather-embellished jeans
Personal Style and Confidence
Claire Kittle’s style is described as chameleonic and confident. She enjoys mixing different pieces together and prioritizes feeling good in what she wears over conforming to a specific style. Her stylist, Leigh Taylor Richardson, notes that Kittle’s style is more impulse-driven than calculated, and she always knows what she wants.
Custom Pieces and Collaborations
Kittle’s visibility as a 49ers WAG has allowed her the luxury of having custom pieces sent her way. She has collaborated with brands like Levi’s for unique looks that reflect her relationship with her husband George Kittle. Her social media presence boasts a large following who admire her ensembles and her relationship with fellow WAGs.
Future Plans and Personal Life
Looking towards the future, Claire hints at potentially exploring the fashion industry post-NFL, but for now, her focus remains on supporting her husband and their future family. The couple plans to raise their children in Nashville, a place close to their hearts. As they prepare for the Super Bowl, Claire’s priorities lie with George and their shared journey.
As Claire Kittle continues to make waves in both the fashion and NFL worlds, her unique style and humble attitude set her apart as a true icon on and off the field.
