New pickup. I normally stick with the black laces on low 1s, but I’m kind of digging the two tone! Most won’t like the patent leather but I’m a sucker for it.

Hey all, first timer here going end of May with a friend who has done this the last two years, but never at this time. We’re going for 4 days/4 nights. Been doing a bit of reading about what to bring for this time but it sounds like late May is very hit or miss on what the weather could be. Additionally, I recently lost a ton of weight (and am still losing weight) so while I have to buy gear for this trip, I’m trying to avoid buying as much as I can since my weight loss has me spending a lot on clothes lately lol

Here’s what I’ve got so far and/or already budgeted for and am wondering if this will work. Will be wet footing but going to try our hardest to stay dry while doing it due to water temps.

1 pair of muck boots

1 pair of light sneakers for camp shoes

1 pair Merino long johns

2 pairs Merino socks (1 pair stays dry always)

3 pair under armor boxer briefs (I get bad sweat down there lol)

1 long sleeve sun shirt

1 short sleeve workout shirt

1 pair poly/cotton mix joggers as mid layer

1 pair of waterproof cargo pants

1 Patagonia R1 fleece as mid layer

1 Patagonia torrentshell rain jacket

1 Marmot PreCip rain pants

1 wind shirt (similar to Patagonia Houdini)

1 fleece-lined beanie

1 pair of gloves

1 sun hat

I’m unsure if I need a heavier jacket or not or even a fleece hoodie, but the hoodie sounds heavy. I have a pretty lightweight down alternative jacket and also a somewhat heavier actual down jacket.

I also assume I’ll be sleeping in the merino long base layer every night. I do have a good exped sleeping pad and a 20° hooded sleeping bag.

Am I missing anything important for clothes?
