Fashion plate Russell Westbrook is bringing back overalls

Russell Westbrook may be the most stylish man in the NBA, but being on the cutting edge of fashion involves taking a lot of risks and facing a lot of criticism.

Russell Westbrook may be the most stylish man in the NBA, but being on the cutting edge of fashion involves taking a lot of risks and facing a lot of criticism.

On Thursday night, Westbrook went with a 1990s nostalgia-inspired look by wearing a pair of overalls, and the internet largely did not approve.

While Twitter might not like it, Westbrook is in good company as fashion lovers have been noting the comeback of the overall look as far back as March of last year.

Oklahoma City’s game against the Bulls was filled with fashion highlights, with Mike Dunleavy celebrating the '60s night theme with a very loud suit, and Derrick Rose wore an amazing T-shirt featuring his son’s face.
