Adam Sandlercontinues to be an accidental fashion icon.

During a recent interview with social media creator Ajay Porter for aMystery Fashionist TikTok clip, Sandler, 57, talked fans through his outfit after introducing himself as “Adam” from “Brooklyn.”

TheHappy Gilmorestar donned a Fila zip-up sweater over a casual T-shirt that day, which he teamed with a pair of blue tie-dye shorts and green and blue mismatched sneakers.

Sandler, who is known for hislaid-back “Sandlercore” style, explained of his ensemble of choice, “It just happens, I didn’t really think it through. There’s sneakers, there’s some goofy shorts,” joking that he wore his sweater to cover his stomach.

“Whatever is in the closet I grab it,” he insisted. “I think I got a bunch of the same socks, underwear is kinda similar too.”

Sandler continued, “I grab it, I don’t think about it much. Most people make fun of me in my family, but I keep moving.”

When asked which five fashion pieces he “can not live without,” Sandler insisted his list would include some “nice socks” that his wifeJackie Sandlerbought him withhis “kidson and stuff,” as well as “goofy shirts” and sneakers.

“Sneakers that fit,” the comedian, whose fashion choiceshave had people talking for years, insisted, adding, “It don’t matter if they’re dirty or not, as long as they’re fitting and not hurting.”

He also said he’d thrown on his sweater because he got it “like five years ago” and “forgot about that thing,” after pointing out his shorts that day were “shorter than usual.”
