Kendrick Lamar put on a show during his Super Bowl LIX halftime performance. From surprise guests like Samuel L. Jackson and Serena Williams to more subtle shots at Drake, K. Dot had Caesars Superdome in New Orleans in a frenzy during his 13-minute performance. However, through all the viral moments, while Lamar’s music was the star of the show, his outfit also had the Internet buzzing.

The Grammy-winning rapper opted for a custom “Gloria” motorsport-inspired leather jacket made by Martine Rose. Kendrick is a big supporter of the British-Jamaican menswear designer and wears the brand quite frequently. He even shouted Rose out in the “Hillbillies” track rapping, “yeah, n—as know that I’m best-dressed. Wear Martine when I’m bored, yes.”
The jacket features the name “Gloria” written along the front, nodding to Lamar’s closing title track on his 2024 GNX album. Gloria (glory in Spanish) serves as a metaphor for Lamar’s pen game and craft. Here are a few Martine Rose jacket alternatives to shop that would also fit Kendrick’s Super Bowl look.
