Jensen Huang's leather jackets used to be cool. Now they're a punchline.

At least the $960,000 someone paid for the Jensen Huang's used Tom Ford jacket went to charity.

Jensen Huang, the CEO of Nvidia, once sported a signature look of black leather jackets. However, his reputation took a hit after revelations of his infidelity surfaced. The once-cool leather jackets have now become a punchline, with jokes circulating online about his "divorced guy energy". This shift in perception is reminiscent of the time when someone wore a beloved motorcycle jacket to a party and received a comment about their divorce.

Some even suggest that Huang's love for high-fashion, motorcycle-adjacent jackets made him an easy target for infidelity. The backlash has been so strong that it's reminiscent of a suspended cop handing over his badge and gun. Despite the jokes, one person paid nearly a million dollars for one of Huang's used Tom Ford jackets at a charity auction.
