If some kind of short trousers came back into style, I would gladly wear them... But I would avoid wearing baggy hose. I think golfers still wear the short trousers sometimes, though; I'm thinking of the kind that are gathered right below the knee: knee-breeches, knickerbockers, plus-fours... Guess they could even be in tartan or tweed...

Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
