Gotta own a pair of Zubaz, come on now! Zubas rock.

According to Wikipedia, Zubaz are a brand of shorts and pants that became popular during the early 1990s. They were created by two bodybuilders, Dan Stock and Bob Truax, as a comfortable, functional short for weightlifting.

Although Zubaz began as a line of shorts, they were later developed into long pants, caps, shirts, and even diapers. The pants are tapered at the ankle, with the outer part of the leg being longer than the inner part. They have an elastic waistband to allow for greater flexibility and movement. The pants were originally created in a zebra print, but later began to be sold in almost any design imaginable.

Zubaz are almost always bright, flashy, and often ostentatious. The word Zubaz or Zubas came to mean “in your face” among sports fans and athletes.
