I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

I think those are called kilts, and some of the cooler ones come with pockets (just like the cool lady dresses.

I've worn a kilt to participate in Scottish heritage festivals and the Highland Games. It's a far, far better garment than pants or shorts in hot weather and super comfy in general. Pants are great, but for just hanging around and casual wear kilts are amazing.

Utilikilts (the ones with pockets) are awesome, but with a traditional kilt you can accesorize with a nice belt and sporran (the little pouch in front).

All in all, I'd be really happy to see more kilts and similar garments in day to day men's fashion.

I personally don't like utilikilts because the sort of folk who wear them at faire aren't always the most savory, but I fuck heavily with a traditional tartan and a sporran.
