    Yeah, Hot Topic is out. I go to thrift stores a lot (college student, heh) so yeah, maybe I'll be able to find some tartan ones there. Ideally, though, I'd like a pair in Gordon and Black Watch.

    Orvis had some weathered Gordon looking tartan trousers on sale and they were due to get a reorder of some other tartans right about now. Don't know if they are still on sale or not. Think my post was on this thread about mid-May.

    Okay, found the page. Still on sale in what they call sage which is VERY similar to weathered Gordon, not exact, but very close.

    When I ordered these the lady on the phone said they were expecting the other tartans in around July 3...but they're not on the website.

    May be best to order the Sage/Weathered Gordon while they're still on sale for $79. (regular $129)

    I've worn my pair about six times. Like them. Wool is substantial but not heavy. I'm guessing maybe 11 ounce. They're dry clean only but haven't had to yet.

    I'm pleased. The stretch waist part is good for a fat olde man like me too.
