When I'm doing field work, my uniform is jeans, sturdy long sleeve shirt, hard hat, ear plugs or muffs, nitrile gloves, steel toe/shank shoes, safety glasses, traffic safety vest, all sorts of instruments and equipment hanging from me, and sometimes more (tyvek/saranex suit, respirator, etc). I really don't like wearing all that stuff but it's better than getting hurt on the job. The hearing protection is the worst...everybody yelling at everybody else and nobody able to hear what the heck the other is saying.
