We don't make pledges wear certain brands, but there are some that they are usually going to get sent home to change for wearing (AE, Hollister, Abercrombie, etc.) because they generally have a "distressed" look or whatever which takes away the whole point of dressing nice.

And for cargoes, the closest I'll come to wearing cargoes are some fishing shorts which tend to be fairly short in length, cut more snug than most shorts, but have flat pockets on the side. I don't have a problem with people wearing those (I think most any other cargoes look bad though), but pledges have to stick to either normal shorts or long pants. It looks silly to wear fishing shorts with a collar is the main reason.

Understood and agree.
Perhaps I should have said long legged/pant cargoes. I was not referring to shorts nor did I understand that you were.
