The eight-time Grand Slam winner created an incredible impression in the 1988 US Open when he competed in a denim shorts attire. Nike, the tennis legend’s sponsor at the time, created the shorts. What was amazing was how well a world number one’s form functioned in that restrictive attire. That is why the attire was very short, so that they wouldn’t interfere with his hip movement while he was playing.
Furthermore, seeing the amazing outfit once again, tennis fans flooded the common section, demanding to bring that outfit back into fashion. Here are some comments.
Seeing this amazing picture, tennis fans also recalled the funky hairstyle. Not only that, but they also want the young tennis stars to try the famous 90s fashion star’s outfits.
Fans wrote, “Bring back the hair.”
“Forget the shorts, bring back the Mullet.”

When Agassi believed that fashion saved his career
Despite being at the peak of his profession and having a prosperous tennis career, the American tennis player explained his decision to become a “fashion savant” in 2014. The eight-time Grand Slam champion was genuinely exploring himself in terms of his game and fashion choices in 1995, but the tennis legend claimed that he thought everything happened by mistake at the time.
