Well we all know Jake Owen likes going commando after he split his pants while performing last Friday!

Folks in South Carolina were treated to a clear look at his bare butt cheeks.

Talk about a serious wardrobe malfunction! you can see in this video he went airborne to do the splits while performing VAN HALEN'S "Jump" . . . and busted his pants wide open. (He leaps at the 1:16 mark and you get a good look at his fleshy buns at 1:47.)

After the show he Tweeted, "Charleston will never be forgotten.  My jeans ripped on stage tonight.  Going commando = bad idea."

I don't think the ladies would agree . . .
