No, I have not seen a day plaid worn for many a year. I have one in a moth proof box(I hope!),but in truth I don't suppose it has been worn in the last twenty, perhaps thirty, or so years. We used to use it, when it retired, for picnics until the canvas backed picnic blankets came about. The day plaid was actually surprisingly weather proof.
