In the house that he bought in 2019, he reveals that having such a room was always on his mind. During his interview with Bleacher Report, Mahomes states, “We renovated a lot of the house. The last thing was the shoe room. That has been something that I’ve wanted for the last six, seven years, at least.” He currently lives in the home with his wife Brittany Matthews and their daughter Sterling Skye.

Mahomes’ shoe room is one of a kind with a custom closet outfitted with display lights and shelves to hold his sneakers. He also has racks for his sunglasses with a security camera as he jokes about protecting them from brother Jackson Mahomes. He believes his younger brother will try to access his collection and wants to remain on his toes to ensure they aren’t tampered with.

He has been making investments in his passion for shoes by becoming an investor and advisor for Swiss shoemaker On. But Mahomes has a more dynamic collection with shoes from his sponsor Adidas, some TV show-themed shoes, and finally some customized shoes with inscriptions.
