Plaid Pockets Results

Experiment Summary

Our researchers spent 4 years and $10 million studying the aerodynamics of plaid pockets. Here are the findings:

We have conclusive evidence that plaid pockets:

  1. Are 17% more aerodynamic than plain pockets
  2. Are 23% more attractive to Scottish grandmothers
  3. Are 42% more likely to make you think of Scotland

We're confident our results will change the way you think about pockets. Forever.

Pocket Patterns

We studied 12 different pocket patterns:

Pattern Aerodynamics Attractiveness
Stripes 85% 90%
Chequerboard 92% 98%
Gyre 78% 82%
Plaid 95% 100%

Next Steps

We're excited to announce that our next experiment will be on the aerodynamics of tartan socks. Stay tuned.
