Like all things, this was an over correction from the shorts that they wore in the 70s and 80s.
I know Joe’s a pretty serious guy but I would love to see him pull up to an interview wearing these
I played at the same time as Joe, even played him in high school once, and we all had shorts like that at the time. Crazy how everything got baggier and baggier, then just kind of stopped and went backwards. I think right now we are at a happy medium between this and short shorts

That was the style back then and I assure you it will come back within your lifetime
It’s so funny looking back on this and me remembering how much I disliked him as a player being a UConn fan.
At least they’re not the tiny shorts they used to wear. Those look soooo bad.
Man I remember wearing those shorts
Baggy clothes are so much more comfortable tho.
You gotta be 22 or younger
Nike made baggier shorts for Jordan, the trend exploded and went sideways…lol
We should be wary of judging historical figures by today’s moral standards
Crazy how much he looks the exact same
I wonder if we’ll go back to the 80s “hot pants” short shorts first or if we roll into the long ass floppy shorts.
My bet is that for speed/agility and to attract a wider audience they’re going to end up with the Larry Bird short shorts.
I had an And 1 pair best shorts ever
Looks like a Sith Lord
Look at some clips of Shaq in his prime lol. If he can make shorts look big for him then no one could back then
Black Air Forces and a mint fiftyninefifty
To live is to suffer 😳
It looks like warmup track pants
Not wearing shorts above my knee. That’s all there is to it.
This looks less like a photo and more like an anime figurine
This is how we wore shorts back then
Someone find the TJ Ford picture
He looks the exact same
They say those shorts grow bigger with each timeout not used in regulation
I still wear and play pickup in shorts like these my knees got to be covered when standing up

He might lift off under a mild breeze.
