So, screen accuracy aside, which shirt and pants are the best to use for "actual adventures"? The ones best for any kind of weather, cold or hot. Ones that can be used for more than just one or two "Indy-like" expeditions.
Vote in the poll for the best brand, but if you have individual opinions (ex. AB shirt and Magnoli pants are the best), please state them.
Best "Adventure Shirt/Pants"?

I own all the shirts listed above except for Noel Howards... In my opinion, Magnoli's by far is the toughest shirts out there... The material almost feels like really thin denim... You really feel invincible in that shirts... and also pretty comfy as well... If I am ever out in the woods really adventuring, I'd take either Magnoli's or Todd's... (Todd's feel pretty tough too.)

Oh... for the pants.... I'd say Magnoli's as well... it's comfy and tough... Wested Wool pants are pretty tough too, but if you are in a humid area, I recommend against it... but as far as toughness goes... I'd say Wested is the toughest... or maybe Magnoli's in wool...( I don't have the 100% wool Magnoli, so hard to say... but if his pants are as tough as his shirts? Oh yeah. Magnoli takes the cake!!)

i've got all of the above except for a wested shirt....which i hear falls short on colour and ruggedness anyways.
i'd have to say that the best shirt for real use is the AB with IM coming an extremely close second (second because its not as SA as the AB....i know it wasn't part of the equation but you gotta break the tie somewhere).
as for pants, cavalry twill wool, only wested, NH, and paris offers the material. NH is the best quality hands down.....same material as wested, but constructed alot better.......but thats why it costs so #### much
