Say what you will about Chunky Pandey, but the man’s got swag, without any doubt.

Back in the 90s and the late 2000s, he was often seen in some of the quirkiest outfits one can think of. Basically, he was the Ranveer Singh of fashion and style, at least in terms of style back then.

Just recently, he was spotted wearing a pair of slip-ons that we think someone like Joe exotic from Netflix’s Tiger King would snap up in a heartbeat, simply because of how quirky and zany they are.

Before we get into Chunky’s shoes, let’s have a look at the outfit that he’s wearing.

Chunky is seen here is a rather dope-looking printed shirt. We actually like the offset light coloured floral prints, against the dark backdrop. The shirt has an undistinguishable bohemian quality about itself, which is pretty cool.

Then there are those anti-fit, dad jeans that Chunky’s got on. 

The jeans look a bit odd, but that’s mainly because of the way it drapes, given that it is an anti-fit piece. The denim could do with some alterations, especially for its length. 

For a casual, midweek outing with your friends and family, though, it’s just fine.

Coming to the statement piece of the outfit, the piece de resistance if you will, take a look at those slip-ons that Chunky is wearing.

They legit look like they have been made using faux snakeskin leather, a type of leather that is characterised by the scales from a snake.

We’re sure you remember Joe Exotic is, and what sort of a figure the man is. He was also dubbed as the “Tiger King.” 

In case you don’t remember his sense of style, here’s a refresher for you on just how weird the man’s sartorial choices can be.

Look at the slip-ons now, and ask yourself, does it not look like it belongs in Joe’s closet? Heck, we think that someone as quirky as Joe would pick it up in a heartbeat.

The slip-ons have the texture that one gets from chainmail or the scales of snakes. Usually, unpolished snakeskin looks like this, if it has been dyed.

Although we aren’t exactly fans of Chunky’s slip-ons, they actually look trim, especially with that shirt. 

All in all, that’s one dope-looking outfit that he has got there.
