In true Nick Miller fashion, Jake Johnson stole all his pants from New Girl

As we prepare to say goodbye to our beloved New Girl, it’s time to ask the cast the most important question: What have you guys steal from the Loft?

It’s kind of a new ~tradition~ among stars to snag a few things here and there from the set, and it’s kind of hilarious to think about the stars of New Girl going home with many of the props hat have populated the Loft for the last seven seasons. At a screening for the New Girl finale Tuesday night, Max Greenfield confessed that he…didn’t take anything. However, his on-screen wife — and the bestest best friend on television ever — Hannah Simone took a bunch of things, explaining:

"[The crew was] very kind to say if there's anything that you love in this set, you can take it," she told HelloGiggles. "So I backed up a truck and took a bunch of stuff! Everyone's like, 'what did you take!' And I'm like, 'You know the plant in like the third bedroom? I took that plant.' I didn't take anything iconic, so it's not useful for any of this [interviews]. But there was some really great stuff, we had the best set decorators in the entire world that build that world, so there's some nice furniture in there that you didn't notice, and now it's in my house. I'm like, 'This bench is from the set!'"

So while Simone now has a newly furnished home, that more than likely looks a whole lot like the Loft, she’s not the only cast member to take things as a parting gift. While he didn’t divulge if he took any furniture, or stacks and stacks of Pepperwood Chronicle books, Jake Johnson did take something special: literally every single pair of Nick’s pants. Even better, Johnson frequently wears Nick’s pants.

"You know what, I honestly stole every pair of jeans you're going to see me in until I weigh 250 lbs," he says with a laugh. "You ever see me on like a press line when I look like this, and I'm wearing jeans, those are all Nick's pants."

Even though the show might be coming to a close, clearly Nick’s wardrobe is going to good use. So next time you see Jake Johnson out and about, know he’s probably wearing a part of New Girl history.
