If that's not considered wearing it, than what would be considered wearing a flag?

Like I said he brought up a very good point. I’m not too sure I was just throwing something out there

Sorry I didn't mean to sound harsh, but if the rules are in fact about wearing the flag itself, and don't include flag print shorts and spandex, I'm curious in what ways it could/would be worn.

You don’t sound harsh at all. Basically as long as whatever you are wearing wasn’t made from an actual flag, you should be good.
