Andy Reid’s Hawaiian Shirt Collection Receives Stunning “KC” Addition as Patrick Mahomes’ KC Current Receive Chiefs HC’s Support

When the big kahuna himself, Andy Reid, strutted into CPKC Stadium, it was clear this wasn’t just another game day. The Chiefs head coach showed up in a vibrant, floral button-down that screamed “KC Baby”, with the team’s colors and slogan plastered all over it. It was a power move, a fashion touchdown, if you will.

As Reid took center stage to lead the fired-up crowd in the beloved “KC Baby” chant, it was a touchdown moment for the unity and infectious spirit that ties together KC’s sports scene. With the Kansas City Current, co-owned by Patrick Mahomes and Brittany Mahomes, securing a 5-2 victory over the Seattle Reign, Reid’s floral threads stole the show. A sea of Chiefs players cheered him on, a testament to how Big Red’s influence extends far beyond the gridiron.

But Reid’s Hawaiian shirt obsession isn’t just a quirky style choice – it’s a reflection of his larger-than-life personality and coaching philosophy. Just like the bold prints and bright colors, the man himself radiates positivity and approachability, fostering a sense of inclusiveness and camaraderie that’s become his signature.

As Current head coach Vlatko Andonovski aptly put it after meeting with Reid before the sold-out game: “I promised to go back and support his team as well… as soon as he gives me tickets!!”

It’s no surprise, then, that Reid’s Hawaiian shirt game has become a rallying point for fans across all teams. Social media buzzed as he debuted his latest floral masterpiece at the Current game, a testament to the excitement and pride his signature style inspires.

The Aloha spirit of Andy Reid’s fashion legacy

For Reid, the Aloha shirt represents more than just comfort and style – it’s a symbol of the values that underpin his leadership philosophy. “They’re good for big guys,” Reid said to Sports Illustrated back in 2020. “Tommy Bahama must’ve had a big grandfather.” Originating in Hawaii, these vibrant, floral button-downs have long embodied a spirit of relaxation, positivity, and unity – qualities that Reid has woven into the fabric of Kansas City’s sports culture, creating a true “home-field advantage.

Reid’s Hawaiian shirt obsession is truly iconic, dating back to at least 2003 when he donned one at the Pro Bowl in Hawaii, accessorizing with a traditional lei. Since then, his devotion to the Aloha shirt has been chronicled by sports publications, with fans and media becoming “somewhat obsessed” with this signature style.

The Aloha shirt has become such an integral part of Reid’s identity that his own players surprised him by wearing Chiefs-themed Hawaiian shirts to honor him before the Super Bowl back in 2020. As tight end Travis Kelce explained to SI, “Everybody knows he loves the Hawaiian shirts. So Gehrig Dieter, a wide receiver for us, brought it to everyone’s attention that we should all grab one for him, knowing we’re going back for Big Red and trying to win one for him.”

Reid was deeply touched by this gesture, returning it by wearing “a red one with a Chiefs logo on it to Opening Night” of the Super Bowl. Surrounded by his players in sleek white sweatsuits, Reid stood out “resplendent in his tropical glory” – a look that seemed destined for that palm tree-adorned Miami setting.

His latest Aloha shirt addition, featuring the Current’s colors and slogans, is just another chapter in Reid’s iconic fashion legacy – one that represents the unity, positivity, and “Aloha spirit” at the heart of Kansas City’s championship sports culture. So while fans may joke about putting down “a cool four dollars and twenty cents” on a betting prop about Reid’s Super Bowl sideline attire, the Chiefs coach makes it clear his sartorial choices are far more than a quirky gamble. They are an embodiment of the values that have made him a legend in KC sports.
