    Hmmm ... tartan cargo shorts ... for some reason , I'm having visions of Rodney Dangerfield .

    Would I wear them ? Well I guess that depends on whether the sides of the cargo pockets were pleated to the stripe or to the sett .

    ... and the "Triple Lindy".
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    In ACTUAL wool tartan, no- but I wear cargo shorts any time the kilt is not appropriate, and several of them are 'plaid'. The shop is too dangerous for that much wool to be swinging around in, and I don't want to ruin one of my kilts with dye/glue/open flames/metal shavings.

    I also like the thigh pockets in cargo shorts because I hate having a wallet in my rear pocket, it messes up my back. As a parent cargo pockets are fantastic as well.
