The 2024 season has been nothing short of chaotic for Jordan Chiles. The gymnast went through a tumultuous time after clinching the Olympic bronze medal at Bercy Arena. After returning to the States, the constant back-and-forth in the next few months left her reeling. However, the 23-year-old got to step away from all that by joining her BFF Simone Biles in the pop-themed entertainment show, Gold Over America Tour.
The second edition of the show has been bigger and better. While the first edition only boasted women gymnasts, the men have joined the tribe this time around. They started their quest by covering 30 cities between September 16 and November 3. Leaving no stone unturned, the Olympian has been showing off her moves, enthralling fans as every show goes by. Yet, there comes a point where they need to sit back and kick their legs up.

When an opportunity comes knocking, it’s best to let it in. When the GOAT tour stopped in the Lone Star State, Chiles took the opportunity to step away and take some leisure time for herself. The 23-year-old decided to spend some quality time with her family. It’s safe to say that everyone in her family is a sneakerhead. So, what better than to give her big sister, Jazmine, a fresh pair of Travis Scott X Air Jordan 1 Low OG? Jazmine shared an unboxing video on her Instagram stories captioned, “Y’all I just cried 🥺 Thanks sis @jordanchiles”
The Olympian’s mother, Gina, has always been a huge Michael Jordan fan. In fact, she was an incredibly huge fan of the J1 sneakers and often dressed the 23-year-old in baby and toddler-sized Jordans. The duo still seem to love the sneakers, having termed them as a longstanding favorite. This seems to have caught up with Jazmine too, who constantly shares her ever-growing collections with her fans on Instagram.
Given how Jordan Chiles signed with the sneaker giants, the trio coordinated fits and attended a Nike party earlier in September. We can only imagine how important this gift would have been for her big sister. The gymnast had previously purchased a lavish house for her parents and herself in Houston. However, since she had a few days to spend on break, the gymnast decided to treat her family to a fun day in H-Town. What did they do?

The squad enjoyed some much-needed family time
The gymnast and her family stopped by STUFF’d Wings at Richmond Avenue in Houston. Her mother, Gina, shared a picture on her Instagram stories captioned, “Let’s see what it’s all about.” Jazmine and the 23-year-old had their fair share of the infamous wings with some spice-tossed curly fries. She even shared a fun boomerang of her food with her Olympian sister’s chic nails making a cameo.
On the other hand, Gina couldn’t enjoy the same thing as them. But she shared her thoughts with fans in an Instagram story. “Loveeeeeed it. Y’all know I am unfortunately gluten free so they hooked me up with something off the menu.” She also shared a fun image of a graffiti wall, possibly letting fans know what to look for when they get there.
