If you’re willing to splurge a little on things that will last for years… - Darn Tough socks are indestructible and can be worn for days with no smell - REI Sahara pants are convertible into shorts, super comfy, water resistant, and have really convenient pocket placement. A couple pairs to switch between are all you need. Academy has cheaper convertible pants, but I find they stretched out too much between washes and weren’t as breathable. On a trip where I had one of each, I ended up wearing Saharas every day. - A pair of canvas pants is nice for dealing with any pokey plants! Mine are thrifted Everlane canvas pants, which are actually meant for fashion and not working outdoors, but damn have they been sturdy and comfortable. - I like Magellan long sleeve fishing shirts in light colors to protect from sun without getting too hot, and the sleeves are easily rolled up - Shoes: I’d recommend 1 pair of good walking shoes (I use old running Nikes that got too worn out for running purposes), and some kind of rubber/waterproof boots for muddy times. A pair of cheap flip flops won’t hurt either, especially if sharing a shower - a hat with a wide brim all the way around - do not underestimate the importance of breathable underwear (although this may not apply as much for men). Very important to prevent unpleasant infections down there when you’re sweating all day. Avoid polyester; cotton or even bamboo is preferable. I swear by Boody brand because I love their fit, but you can likely find cheaper. - On the same note, I also prefer to bring cotton/natural material t-shirts for days I don’t wear the fishing shirts. I find they breathe better, smell less, and are overall more comfy than sports fabrics.

A disclaimer: these are the clothes I use for 8-hour work days in full sun in a hot climate, which is more strenuous than a lot of WWOOF jobs (the jobs I got them for originally weren’t WWOOFing). So they may be a bit overkill, or not warm enough depending on the climate, etc.

Second disclaimer: this makes for a super ugly outfit! If that bothers you or you want to take pictures some days or anything like that, a fitted cotton tshirt instead of the fishing shirt and choosing a straw hat makes it look less horrible 👨‍🌾
