Nick Lachey's 98 Degrees Throwback Picture Is Only The Beginning Of This Band's Amazing Fashion Crimes

Oh, Nick Lachey, my handsome, brawny, talented lifelong crush — you never, ever disappoint me. You see, Nick Lachey just posted the best 98 Degrees throwback photo to his Instagram on Wednesday evening. Even better, he captioned the gem of a picture, "Hey GUYS, Shaq called and he wants his suits back! #WWITW #WhatWasIThinkingWednesday."

Really, it's a fair question to ask with offensively bad outfits such as the ones pictured. But, as any true boy band fan knows, 98 Degrees weren't exactly strangers to ridiculous late 90's attire. No, just take a gander at any of the band's music videos and you will understand that Lachey's Instagram post just scratches the surface of their continual fashion crime spree.

So, in honor of Lachey's amazing Instagram throwback, allow me to take you on a 98 Degrees music video fashion journey. All the way back to yesteryear...

"My Everything"

Was it hot or was it cold in that green screen desert? I can’t decide — but it seems neither could they!

"The Hardest Thing"

The “hardest thing” about these outfits is trying to decipher who’s who in all these earth-toned turtlenecks and oversized jeans.

"The Hardest Thing"

Leather, leather everywhere — and one rogue bubble vest.

"Because Of You"

Were they going to teach a high school gym class? Were they going to get their pants tailored? Were they going to get Drew a different colored hat?

… God, I hope so.

"Because Of You"

Why can they never get on the same page with the weather? Was it polo season or was it time for a ritzy, scoop/v-neck sweater?!

"Because Of You"

This… this is actually not half bad.

"Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)"

Nick’s cleavage: 10 out of 10.

"Give Me Just One Night (Una Noche)"

Not a bowling shirt. ANYTHING BUT A BOWLING SHIRT, Justin. Gosh.
