Michael Jordan’s fandom is much bigger and more powerful than you might imagine. One of the most interesting and notable fans of the 6x champion is baseball icon Derek Jeter, who was thrilled upon discovering that Jordan knew him. However, what many might not know is his obsession with Jordan’s other area of excellence.

Jeter has long been a big admirer of Jordan and his game. But what drew the baseball legend’s attention was Michael’s wardrobe. The Chicago Bulls legend had the finest fashion. In appreciation of his style, Jeter used to get his suits designed by the same tailor as Jordan. While he loved the suits, he had one concern with the size. He revealed, “I don’t know if he knows this, I went to his tailor to have him make suits ’cause Michael was, you know the sports fashion icon. Everyone looked up to MJ. Yeah they’re a little big, to say the least.”

Despite the concern, he spent quite a lot on his suits. “I have a lot of suits. I have a tailor in Chicago. He’s Michael Jordan’s guy, too. But really, I’m not a huge spender,” said Jeter. Well, despite spending so much on suits, the legend managed to get into the same $3.5 billion box recently.

The College Football Playoff title game saw a gathering of multiple luminaries in a star-studded box at NRG Stadium in Houston.
