Johnston & Murphy has welcomed Peyton Manning as its brand ambassador.
The announcement comes with the release of Johnston & Murphy’s fall 2025 campaign, which stars the NFL champion looking back at some of the outfits he wore during his career.
In the first video, titled “Fashion Fumbles,” Manning is seen wearing footwear and apparel from the brand’s current collection while commenting on throwback pictures of him shown through a projector. For the second video, “Wall of Game,” Johnston & Murphy presents footwear and apparel as if they are Hall of Fame artifacts in Peyton’s collection.

The ambassadorship announcement comes at a special time for Johnston & Murphy, which is celebrating its 175th anniversary in 2025.
