Most traditional desart garb is made from loose multi layers that are open for air flow while providing tent like shade for the wearer. A kilt does that better than shorts.

I need to get a giant sombrero.
I relocated from the California Coastal Redwoods to Needles, California in June of 2004 only to discover it was not uncommon for the daily high to be in excess of 125F for two to three weeks in row. My stay there was short lived. Kilt or no, you can only tolerate so much!
