“We saw a dramatic increase in online traffic and within a day,” a spokesperson for the brand told the Los Angeles Times that year, “the number of Straight Fit Palomino Brown khakis we sold online went up 90 percent.”
If you’re looking for the stats on how many pairs of khakis Kornacki owns, he’s got those too.
“Certainly single digits,” the 45-year-old told Rich Eisen during his radio appearance. “I’m gonna say five.”
As for how he picks which set of pants to wear on which day, he added, “Usually it’s whatever’s clean.” And Kornacki is happy viewers have grown to expect his uniform, which also typically features a white button-down and striped tie.
“I like that,” he noted to Eisen. “If this means I’ve gotten myself off the hook for the rest of my life from really having to get dressed up, I’ll take that.”
In honor of election day, here’s a tribute to Kornacki and his khakis.
