Travis Hunter made a pink statement at the 2025 NFL draft on Thursday. The Colorado Buffaloes’ two-way star attended the event in Green Bay, Wis., wearing a custom look by Maison Hideoki featuring a neon pink double-breasted blazer paired with a black shirt underneath, matching pants and shoes.
Hunter was dressed by Dedrick L. Hideoki Thomas, the designer behind Maison Hideoki. “Working with Travis Hunter on his custom NFL Draft suit was a true honor. Travis is not only an extraordinary talent on the field — he’s also humble, creative, and full of character. From the start, he brought vision and authenticity to the process, making it a genuine collaboration,” the designer told WWD.
