Spotted on the streets of NYC, courtside at the Knicks, or on the red carpet, Adam Sandler is always reliably his authentic self. Sandler has achieved what every fashion person in New York wants: the ultimate unbothered, effortlessly chic, cool-girl closet.
On days I want to feel casual and sporty without trying too hard, I channel my best Sandler by styling a pair of jorts or athletic shorts with an oversize tee or just experimenting with accessories. There’s no denying he’s a funny guy, but over the past few years, his fashion sense has become something people genuinely love. No surprise his style influence is having a resurgence this summer.
So here are some of my favorite ways to style Sandler’s iconic baggy shorts. And of course, we’ll start with some very “Adam Sandler–chic” shorts options.
