Pop star Gwen Stefani took to social media on Sunday to thank Kristin Juszczyk for creating her Super Bowl-themed puffer vest. The San Francisco 49ers fullback’s wife decided to auction off these puffer vests leading up to Super Bowl LVIII and the profits are going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Going for up to $50,000, the proceeds from the Juszczyk-designed items will go along way for the NBCF.

“We were just completely overwhelmed, and surprised with the news just like everybody else,” says Ashley Miller, NBCF Director of Public Relations and Spokesperson.

Stefani posted a video on social media after she received the custom Super Bowl-themed puffer vest. She told the designer how much she loved it, posting, “I absolutely LUV it, I am so inspired by ur talent and creativity.”

Kyle Juszczyk arrived at Allegiant Stadium rocking a new jacket clearly designed for 49ers. The letterman-style jacket has all of the Super Bowl logos for the five years the team won the Lombardi Trophy, as well as the numbers for some of Juszcyzk’s best teammates. All over the jacket are names like Purdy, Kittle, McCaffrey and Samuel.

Juszcyzk, a very proud husband, has been doing the most to help promote his wife’s work. After Taylor Swift’s custom jacket went viral on X, he popped up in the comments to let everyone know who was responsible. Kristin now boasts over a million followers on Instagram.

NFL makes deal with Juszczyk for official licensing

Before the Super Bowl, the league’s new favorite designer reached a licensing deal with the NFL for her apparel designs, according to Sportico. The deal means Juszczyk can now use the league’s official mark in her future apparel designs and market them as officially licensed products. The NFL has not revealed the terms of the deal.

The Designs by Kristin designer sent Taylor Swift one of her custom repurposed jersey jackets to wear for the Chiefs game against the Miami Dolphins and her business has since blown up. Kristin now boasts 823,000 followers on Instagram, up from the 620,000 she had the week after her Swift jacket went viral.

Swift and Patrick Mahomes’ wife Brittany both rocked the looks by Juszcyzk to one game and now, her business is officially on the map. With the 49ers making it to Super Bowl LVIII, her designs will once again be in the spotlight. During the San Francisco playoff game against the Lions, Juszcyzk wore a long version of the puffer jacket she made for Swift, but of course, hers was emblazoned with her husband Kyle’s No. 44.
