Jason & Travis Kelce Launch Apparel Line Based on Their Top-ranked Digital Series “New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce,” a JUKES Original Production Presented by Wave Sports + Entertainment
HOMAGE Named Official “New Heights” Apparel Partner
Jason Kelce says “The biggest new news…We got merch!”
LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#kansascitychief–Today Philadelphia Eagles’ Jason Kelce and Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce announced they have launched an apparel line based on their top-ranked digital series “New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce,” a JUKES original production from the leader in sports storytelling Wave Sports + Entertainment. HOMAGE, known for pairing ultra-comfortable apparel with vintage-inspired designs to honor legendary personalities, memorable styles, and iconic moments across sports and pop culture, is the official apparel partner of “New Heights.” The initial range, including t-shirts and hoodies with the show’s logo, one-liners, zingers, and more, dropped this morning on Homage.com/NewHeights.
“The biggest new news. You guys have been asking. We got merch,” said Jason Kelce on the latest episode of “New Heights.” “In particular, we’re really happy to partner with HOMAGE, keeping the Ohio roots together.”
About the classic HOMAGE “Jam” shirt featuring Jason and Travis and their stats, Jason says, “This one particularly hits home because we grew up in the era of playing arcade games, and it brings back a lot of nostalgia with the graphics of the stat line.”
He jokingly added, “I’m a little upset about my speed rating, I think I’m faster than that,” to which Travis responds with, “If you’re faster than that, then I’m faster than what my speed rating is too.”
A&A founders Aaron Eanes and André Eanes said, “We are extremely optimistic for the future of WSE, a great company that is focused on creative excellence to inspire generations through storytelling. Based in Kansas City and Philadelphia, the brothers have an authentic understanding of their fans and loyalty to their hometown city Cleveland, which has played a significant role in the evolution of their careers.”
“If you’ve spent any time in the comments section of a New Heights post, you know how passionate the fans of the show are and how long they’ve been clamoring for merch. The guys wanted to show the community that while they can’t respond to everyone, they’re listening to what the fans want,” said Ryan Jann, Vice President of Content Strategy and Development at Wave Sports + Entertainment. “Partnering with HOMAGE was the obvious choice for the show as they are Ohioans like Jason and Travis and a part of the New Heights fan community themselves. We found that HOMAGE consistently creates high quality products and designs uniquely fitting for the fan communities they serve. Knowing that we have partners that will proactively create designs specifically for the New Heights community makes us excited for what’s to come.”

The initial product range for “New Heights” includes both hoodies and T-shirts from Columbus, Ohio based HOMAGE and includes the following:
“New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce” apparel from HOMAGE is designed in the USA. Unisex styles available in adult sizes XS, S, M, L, XL, 2XL, and 3XL. International shipping is available.
In the series the brothers – both Super Bowl champions – reveal insights about their games, react to NFL news, rumors, and sports headlines, and dive into their off-field interests alongside special guests including NFL peers, celebrity friends, and members of their inner circle. The series’ title “New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce” is derived from the neighborhood in Cleveland Heights, Ohio, where the brothers grew up playing sports and generally causing mayhem for their parents.
“New Heights” is No. 1 on both Spotify and Apple sports podcast charts and is No. 3 on Spotify and No. 10 on Apple overall podcast charts, regardless of genre. Jason and Travis recently welcomed guests Philadelphia Eagles’ Jalen Hurts and Kansas City Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes, both NFL MVP candidates, in separate episodes of “New Heights,” each nearing 1 million views on YouTube. The digital series instantly emerged as a mainstay of football culture and is regularly highlighted on SNF, MNF, and throughout the broader traditional football landscape on shows like ESPN’s “ManningCast,” Fox Sports’ “The Carton Show,” the NFL Network’s “NFL Gameday View” and “Good Morning Football.” Journalists have come to rely on the series for insider commentary on news and rumors around the NFL. “New Heights” boasts more than 300,000 YouTube subscribers, over 350,000 cross-platform social followers, over 13 million engagements, and over 145 million social views, making it the most successful launch in WSE’s history.
“New Heights with Jason & Travis Kelce” was created by Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce alongside the WSE team, led by executive producers Brian Verne, Mack Sovereign, and Tunde “TD” St. Matthew-Daniel, and A&A Management’s Aaron Eanes. Jason Kelce is represented by Jason Bernstein and Clarity Sports International. Travis Kelce is managed by A&A Management.
