What do we think about camo for everyday wear?
Not for hunting or manoeuvres or Airsoft or whatever, just as a fashion choice.
Not so long ago I picked up a woodland camo M-65 from Golden Mfg, and I love it to bits. But at the moment I feel like I love it in spite of it being camo.
So far, I feel a little self conscious wearing it in everyday situations, as though folks will expect it to represent a certain lifestyle choice. When all it actually is to me, is a cool jacket.
Funny thing is, I've worn camo cargo shorts for about as long as I can remember. I still wear them now, when it's shorts weather. But I haven't worn full length camo trousers of any description since I was about 22. I'm almost 60 now, btw.
This whole thought has been prompted by @jeo , who just posted in WJAYWT in camo pants looking about as cool as I've ever seen anyone look.

So that's my question, really. Do/would you wear camo for everyday? So you have any notional guardrails, like I do for full length trousers? Genuinely interested in people's thoughts.
