Adam Sandler is well known for his preference for casual style; however, some people think he might have taken things too far for a special event.

Recently, he attended one of the premieres for Office Romance, the upcoming Netflix film that his wife, Jackie Sandler, will be acting in. For the premiere, he stepped out not only in casual wear but also in full-blown sweatpants and sweats that were merchandise for the New York Knicks. Though this isn’t the first time he’s gone casual for a premiere, fans thought it was embarrassing for his wife and that he should’ve stepped up his game out of respect for her. Read more about his outfit and how the internet reacted below.

Adam Sandler Wears New York Knicks-Themed Sweats To The 'Office Romance' Premiere With His Wife

This Tuesday, stars stepped out for the Los Angeles premiere of Office Romance, the upcoming Netflix romantic comedy starring Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein.

 

The highly anticipated movie, which will be streaming on the platform next month, also stars Jackie Sandler, an actress and producer, who is also famously known for being married to Adam Sandler for over 20 years. The pair have produced and starred in many films together, even beginning to create content with their two young daughters.

 

Jackie and her famous husband attended the LA premiere of the Netflix flick together this week, and though they looked very much in love, they were dressed completely differently. While Jackie wore a sparkling black Schiaparelli minidress, the Happy Gilmore icon had on a baggy, orange NY Knicks sweatshirt and some bright blue sweatpants, clearly wanting to show support for the team, which had just advanced to the NBA finals.

Social Media Slams Adam's Premiere Outfit As Embarrassing

After pictures and videos of the couple at the Office Romance premiere were shared on social media, users and fashion enthusiasts had a whole lot to say bout their looks.

 

As Jackie was getting praised for her classy and glamorous dress, users on platforms like Reddit quickly began commenting on how they thought her award-winning husband could've done better, and dressed more formally as a sign of respect. Adam has become famous for sporting sweatpants at more formal occasions, but because this is a project his wife is working on without him, some thought he should've stepped it up.

 

"I feel like it's one thing when he's promoting or doing his own projects, but for his wife's work, you think he could throw on some khakis and a golf shirt at least," wrote a Reddit user.

 

"It is embarrassing for his wife," wrote one, as another added, "I hate that for her."

 

"Bet she wouldn't get the same 'she's just quirky' excuse had she shown up in sweats to one of his premieres," they continued.

 

"He should care enough about her to not wear sweatpants when it comes to supporting her like this," commented a user.

 

"Feels a bit disrespectful," added another.
