Andre Agassi says that the infamous stone-washed denim shorts that he wore on court during the 1990s were a trailblazing maneuver.

"You don't realize at the time, when I wore jean shorts on the court, a lot of people said that was the wrong thing to do," the American told reporters prior to his induction into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. “I thought I had the ability to impact more people that way."
