Endorsement Deals

Jets star and All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner has found his latest matchup off the field—this time with the Q-Collar, the first and only FDA-cleared sports device designed to help protect the brain from repetitive head impacts.

Gardner wore the collar throughout the 2024 NFL season after discovering it during a personal deep dive into player safety. The journey started with a solo purchase and ended, naturally, with a full-blown ambassadorship. Now officially part of the Q30 Innovations team, Sauce brings both star power and lived experience to a product built around performance

Travis Scott is blending vibes—literally. The rapper and creative polymath has joined the Erewhon smoothie club with the debut of his first-ever signature drink: the “Storm Storm Smoothie,” named after his daughter, Stormi. Equal parts nutrient-dense and brand-aligned, the smoothie is the latest move in Scott’s ever-expanding empire of unexpected partnerships.

Curated by Scott himself (because of course), the drink brings his signature touch to Erewhon’s lineup—a menu already known for turning celebrity collaborations into $20 cultural events. He joins a tight club that includes BLACKPINK’s Lisa, Tyla, and Sabrina Carpenter, all of whom have previously lent their names (and presumably taste preferences) to the upscale grocery chain’s blender.

The Erewhon deal follows a bigger one: Scott was recently named Oakley’s first-ever Chief Visionary, tasked with shaping the brand’s creative future. And if you’re sensing a marketing wave building, you’re not wrong—Scott is also teasing the release

New Balance has a sneaker called the T-500, which is not a robot but a tennis shoe — and in its latest campaign, it turns out that tennis can, in fact, be played inside a shoebox. A real one. With real football phenom Endrick volleying around not with a racket, but a soccer ball, because the rules are flexible in surreal brand worlds.

The new installment in New Balance’s “Quiet Please” series places the Real Madrid-bound striker in the middle of a match that’s less Wimbledon and more meta-sport satire. The kicker? It’s all happening inside an oversized shoebox. Watching from the sidelines of this box-universe are Endrick himself (life-sized this time) and model Gabriely Miranda, lounging at a country

In a crossover that feels like equal parts hip-hop tour bus and backcountry hike, Post Malone has joined forces with Stanley 1913—the venerable drinkware brand known for fueling fishing trips and your uncle’s coffee addiction—for a rugged capsule collection that brings camo to the cult of hydration.

The drop, which includes Stanley’s classic tumblers, stackable cups, and adventure-ready bottles, is wrapped in camouflage and dusted with Posty’s signature blend of cozy chaos and functional cool. It’s the kind of merch that says “I like my whiskey neat, my water cold, and my headliner slot on time.”

This collaboration drops at a curious cultural moment: Stanley

Rauw Alejandro is back in our feed and this time, he’s not just dropping chart-toppers or flexing choreography sharp enough to slice air—he’s manning the grill. Kind of. The Puerto Rican reggaetonero has partnered with Buchanan’s whisky for its latest culinary-meets-cultura spectacle: the Asados Unidos campaign.

If you’re unfamiliar with the term asado, it’s basically barbecue—but make it Latin American, deeply emotional, and a battleground for generational grilling philosophies. Enter Buchanan’s, the Scotch brand with a Latin soul, whose entire brand identity now seems built around making whisky as comfortable at a backyard cookout as it is on a mahogany bar cart in the Andes.

The campaign’s core thesis is one part sociology seminar and one part travel ad: despite our differences in spice level, smoke preference, and playlist choices (Merengue or Bomba? Discuss), it’s Buchanan’s that brings us together. Rauw, of course, plays the cultural diplomat here—grilling with friends from Puerto Rico, Argentina, Colombia, and Mexico across a four-part video series that’s basically Anthony

Somewhere between the Y2K renaissance and the revival of logo-core lies Von Dutch, a brand once favored by mid-2000s starlets and now freshly dipped in relevance. And who better to helm its return than Brazilian DJ and producer Vintage Culture, a man who knows a thing or two about high-octane nostalgia.

As the new global ambassador, Vintage Culture isn’t just posing in flame-stitched hats—he’s co-creating an exclusive capsule collection under Von Dutch’s new creative platform, Von Dutch Loves. Launching June 15, the line leans all the way in: distressed trucker hats, oversized graphic tees, and all the blurry-after-3am rave energy your feed can handle. The collection is, as the artist puts it, “a celebration of individuality,” though cynics might call it a well-timed play for post-ironic fashion supremacy.

And let’s be clear: this isn’t a vanity license plate gig. Vintage Culture, born Lukas Ruiz, has spent the last few years quietly becoming one of the most bankable names in dance music. With a sound that fuses deep house with melodic grooves and a stage presence that lights up arenas

Dakota Johnson has been named the global brand ambassador for Italian luxury jewelry house Roberto Coin, in a deal that runs through May 2027. Which is perfect, because if there’s anyone who knows how to stretch a campaign across award seasons, it’s the woman who made press tours for “Madame Web” feel like they deserved their own red carpet circuit.

The new campaign, lensed by fashion photography titan Craig McDean, features Johnson wrapped in Coin’s signature designs and the seductive, shimmering backdrops of Venice—a city that, like Dakota, knows how to do drama, glamour, and quiet prestige without needing to shout.

This isn’t Johnson’s first foray into luxury sparkle—she’s previously aligned herself with Gucci and Italian lingerie brand Intimissimi—but this marks her deepest dive yet into fine jewelry. Beyond print spreads and moody gondola shots, the partnership will also see her

Shedeur Sanders has signed an endorsement deal with Delta Airlines, because in 2025, even your boarding pass needs a storyline.

A day after being drafted 144th overall by the Cleveland Browns—several rounds later than most projections, media takes, and probably his own expectations—Sanders quietly launched his next brand move. A TikTok clip dropped showing him boarding a Delta flight, wearing a Delta sweatshirt, and delivering the tagline: “It’s time to keep climbing.” Subtle? No. Effective? Absolutely. It’s self-mythologizing with gate assignments.

This is not a post-draft recovery deal. It’s a flex. Delta’s not betting on the No. 144 pick. They’re betting on the Shedeur Sanders brand—built not just on his QB stats, but on a perfectly curated blend of swagger, polish, and algorithm-friendly appeal. He’s already inked deals with
