A man's wardrobe for the road, or performance wear that'll probably make me stick out like a sore thumb

Probably on the luxurious side.  Detailed reviews to come once we start travelling...

- 2 pairs convertible pants/shorts (north face paramount & rei sahara)
- 1 pair swim shorts (speedo, but not the wee little itsy-bitsy kind)
- 1 long-sleeve performance shirtn (ex-officio airstrip)
- 2 synthetic t-shirts (rei)
- 1 short-sleeve travel shirt (royal robbins)
- 3 pairs synthetic boxer-briefs (patagonia capilene midweight, ex-officio; blue and charcoal colored respectively)
- 1 long underwear shirt, 1 long underwear bottoms (rei)
- 1 microfleece sweater (arc'teryx)
- 1 rain shell (rei elements)
- 1 broad-rimmed, waterproof hat (outdoor research gortex seattle sombrero, baby!)
- 3 pairs sock liners
- 3 pairs wool socks
- 1 pair boots (reichle, one piece leather; super heavy, but gotta protect the dogs)
- 1 pair amphibious shoes (salomon)

So that's it.  Oh yeah, and one bandana, treated with permetherin of course...
