6 Times Adam Sandler Proved That Hes The Poster Boy For Baggy Clothes
Adam Sandler is known as an all-in-one package - A member of the television show Saturday Night Live, an actor who played popular comedic roles in films like Billy Madison and Happy Gilmore, a writer who co-scripted the Grown Up series, a comedian with his own special by the name of Adam Sandler:100% Fresh and a filmmaker who has produced movies like The Week Of and Murder Mystery. Besides the many hats he dons, Adam Sandler appears to be the nicest-nice guy in Hollywood with a reputation of someone who could do no wrong. He gets along with all his contemporaries and is always approachable to his fans.
His wacky, whimsical but warm personality reflects in the way he presents himself, which is something he’s becoming increasingly famous for. If you aren’t aware, Adam Sandler wears the loosest, most baggy clothes that are a testament to his cool, casual and carefree spirit.
Whether he’s running errands or going on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the level of clothing comfort remains constant. When you look at him wearing those oversized sweatshirts and loose-fitting shorts, it encourages you to put comfort over style and pull on a pair of pyjamas right away.
On Adam Sandler’s 54th birthday, AskMen India takes you through 6 outfits that prove that the American actor is the poster boy of baggy clothes:
Pink For the Win
Adam Sandler is often accused of dressing up like a fifth grader and this photograph justifies that allegation completely. He was spotted in the most unlikely combination of colours while running errands in NYC: A pink sweatshirt with a pair of red shorts! Not to forget, they’re both twice his size.
Notice how the sleeves are almost falling off his shoulders. That aside, he really hit the nail on the coffin with those white-rimmed glasses. There’s no denying that.
Cool, Casual And Couldn’t Care Less
The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon airs on national television and celebrities consider it a huge deal.They show up in the fanciest of clothes, hair and makeup. Not Adam Sandler though.
When he was invited, he looked like he was out for a walk in the park and somehow landed himself in the midst of a cheering crowd at Rockefeller Centre. He wore ink blue track pants and an oversized pullover looking as content and comfortable as one could possibly be.
Big Man, Big Pants
Here’s yet another gem of a baggy outfit by Adam Sandler. For a change, the bright, poppy yellow-coloured polo shirt is a good fit. Maybe it appears to be so because it’s tucked inside those ill-fitting grey pants that look like they have room for another pair of legs.
But we all know Adam doesn’t like his clothes touching his skin. With this look, he proves that pants too can be comfortable. How? Shop one size larger. Simple!
Superhero Style
Adam Sandler never outgrew his school-boy fandom for superheroes. And as for his clothes, it doesn’t look like he will ever outgrow them. The actor was at his baggiest best wearing an overly oversized Superman sweatshirt and matching blue and white shorts while fetching himself coffee.
And in case you missed it, he has a plain white pair of socks on with black lace shoes of course! By the way, he wore this very shirt while accepting the award of Favourite Movie Actor for ‘Grown Ups 2’ at Nickelodeon's 27th Annual Kids Choice Awards. Guess it’s one of his fashion favourites.
The good Ol' Jeans
If there’s anyone who can make wearing jeans seem like a smooth ride, it’s Adam Sandler! Flared pants may be out of fashion, but anything that’s cosy and comfortable sticks to his wardrobe for years together.
He prioritizes comfort over style and makes us all wonder - Isn’t that what fashion should be all about - dressing up for you and you alone, with no regard for what people consider customary?
Ready For 2020
Laugh as you may at his fashion choices, but the year 2020 has got everyone around the world to kind of adapt to Adam Sandler’s dressing style. The past couple of months have been all about loose sweatshirts and shorts.
There are memes doing the rounds about how the actor probably saw this coming and readied his wardrobe for the lockdown. So to say, the quarantine period made no difference to Adam’s choice of clothes as he’s been stepping out wearing the same old ones. What a genius, we must say.
Here’s to Adam Sandler and his non-conforming sense of style!
