Thereâs no such thing as too-short shortsâŠthat is, as long as weâre not the ones wearing them. But we understand why no one would want to show their booty off at work, even if their place of employment is Hooters.
In case you havenât heard, the sexist excuse for a sports bar recently made a change to its standard uniform. If you need a refresher, hereâs what it used to look like:

Now those itty bitty orange shorts? They got even tinierâŠto the point of barely being considered underwear.
A TikToker flagged the change in a now-viral video.
@sick.abt.itlove my job but dont love wearing undies to work ##hootersgirl @Kirsten đ⏠Jenna_Did_it â Chy
Soon, other Hooters servers followed suit, posting vids of the insanely minuscule bottoms. As this TikToker named Lexius noted, âsoooo hooters got new panties. i mean shorts.â

âWhen they [Hooters corporate managers] explained it to us, they said, âThey look like high-waisted bikini bottoms.â But as you can tell, thatâs not what we got,â Lexius told Buzzfeed. âMy initial reaction was âOh, these are gonna be cute if theyâre high waisted.â But then the next day I went to work and held it up, and I was like, âWhat do yâall think this is gonna cover? Because I have a butt.ââ
She wasnât the only one. A hilarious TikTok commenter said, âMy roast beef would fall right out omg.â
Apparently, the young ladies caused enough of a stir on social media that Hooters backpedaled on the new uniforms, stating that servers could choose âwhich style of shorts best fits their body and image.â
But before we declare this a win for Hooters employees everywhere, we should also note the company changed its social media policy, too. Lexius told Buzzfeed that her managers told her the new corporate stance on platforms like TikTok was âno recording videos in the bathroom or break room at work, no recording videos or taking pictures at the bar. And if we arenât at Hooters, we arenât supposed to be taking pictures or videos in our uniforms outside.â
Uh-huh. Sounds to us like Hooters is all for show-and-tell as long as theyâre calling the shots. Until this mess gets figured out, consider spending your hard-earned food money anywhere but this misogynistic shit-show of an establishment.
