White Men Can’t Jump Costume for Best Buds

 

NBA Russell Westbrook Nick Collison (White Men Can't Jump Costume)

This movie featuring Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes is the perfect costume for best buds, especially those who love to play basketball. Trivia: NBA players Russell Westbrook and Nick Collison dressed up as Billy and Sidney:


Dress up as Billy Hoyle (Woody Harrelson)

Billy Hoyle proved that white men CAN jump! He wears a very distinct outfit consisting of a tie dye cap and a Parental Advisory top (with holes if I might add)

Tie Dye Cap
Tie Dye Cap
The exact replica of the cap (with the striped tie dye details) is currently unavailable so you can improvise with any other tie-dye looking cap. This one is very retro and should look just as good.

Gray 3-4 sleeve Tee
Gray 3/4 sleeve Tee
Wear a basic gray long-sleeved tee as your first layer, just bunch it up a bit so the sleeves fall somewhere along the elbow

Parental Advisory Shirt
Parental Advisory Shirt
The words aren’t exactly the same but they certainly hold the same spirit of the message. If you want, you can distress this top further by cutting up holes. In some photos, Billy wears a printed button shirt over this tee, but you can skip that

Gray Shorts
Gray Shorts
Wear a pair of gray short pants.

Nike Air Force 1
Nike Men’s Air Force 1
Based on research, Billy wears a pair of Nike Air Command Force shoes. Of course, you can also improvise with any other pair of rubber shoes. The one shown would also suffice.
