A$AP Rocky wore an ode to the NFL at the 2023 Super Bowl on Sunday, held at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The rapper, who is supporting his girlfriend Rihanna for her halftime show performance, arrived wearing an American flag-inspired leather varsity jacket by Jeff Hamilton with stars printed on the sleeves. It incorporated a graphic of a city with a tattooed hand holding a football with an NFL logo on the back.
The rapper’s outfit also included a white tank top, a statement belt, khaki pants and a black baseball cap.
Ahead of the Super Bowl, A$AP Rocky collaborated with Rihanna to create a Super Bowl line with Mitchell & Ness. The capsule included an assortment of oversize T-shirts, hoodies, a jacket and other pieces featuring the image used in September to announce Rihanna’s halftime show performance.
