Baggy pants and a Marmot vaporwick long sleeve, also my everyday wear since it's cold here most of the time. My wall pants from TNF and Mountain Hardwear rule climbing muti-pitch etc. or when I know I'll be climbing for long periods of time. Used to climb nude with ex-girlfriend. In summer solo nude sometimes. Why the hell not? In the last 5 years here in MT. I have worn shorts less than 10 times so when ever I go on road trips I tend to wear pants as well to hide my whitea$$ chicken legs.

depedning on heat I find that a wifebeater or muscle shirt is best on top...Not much fabric to get caught on things...however if you fall onto the rocks you can get pretty beat up....I wear baggy long shorts as well....my knees are routinely bloody after climbs however...I have very little feeling in them now so it's all good :D. Wear what is comfortable and doesn't restrict movement too much.

clothes using coolmax or vaporwick are good, but overpriced. poly-pro is good ifyou don't mind smelling like a man's man. if you have back acne, or any other skin conditions, don't wear these strange materials, stick to loose cotton (skin conditions will only be aggravated by tighter fitting synthtic materials, b/c although companies claim that they draw sweat away from the skin, this is only true to a point). and if you are blessed with a back rug, please wear a long-sleeved turtleneck. thanks

I know everyone is saying baggy stuff... which might work indoors, but outsoors i have gotton T's caught more than once... so now I wear snug (not tight) clothes and comfortable pants that you can get full range of motion in. I find that in jeans i can't.

Any matching North Face, Patagucci, Marmot, Mountain Hardware, or Prana outfit should work. Make sure it's all this year's model because stuff bought on sale doesn't count.

shorts and T should work fine for ya.

Buncha fashion whores. Why doncha prance off to the Paris runways.
Have a little Prada with your Prana and get all Gucci.

I wear climbing shoes on my feet, chalk on my hands, a smile on my face, the sky over my head and whatever clothes my mommy put out for me that day.

and its briefs, not boxers.

And I like leather straps, not that wimpy silk stuffffff..oh, wait wrong forum, sorry
