Tom Brady’s latest venture is being ripped apart online.
For next month’s New York Fashion Week, Brady will be walking the runway for Gucci in Times Square.
Ahead of the show, the 49-year-old Brady modeled some leather pants for Gucci in their new ad and talked to GQ about it.

“Yeah, I’d never really done leather on leather before, but there are some leather pants in my closet now. I thought, “Damn, that’s actually really comfortable.” I could see why people wear this. It’s definitely a different look. It felt more like a uniform—there was a rigidity and a structure to it, like my football uniform.”
Brady is apparently enjoying dabbling in the fashion world and says he would be open to more collaborations in the future.
“I would never say never to doing anything, so if there was an opportunity that presented itself that I thought was really fun and new, I would definitely be open to it. I always say the only place for growth is outside your comfort zone, and I think this was one of those things: doing something that I had never really done on a big stage with some really great people.”
Fans online immediately mocked Brady for becoiming a “leather pants guy.”
“and becoming a leather pants guy at 49” is perhaps the most divorced guy line ever written https://t.co/Y1O0aYJEhZ
