"My ultimate hobo dream has been a suit, which is comfortable to wear at all times and which protects you from any kind of environment. You wont need a tent or a home." One of my eternal pub discussions has been about an Urban Mobility Suit which looked like a business suit, but was actually designed for backcountry hiking. Plus a briefcase actually containing ultralight and compact camping gear. To really confuse people in the outdoors. Then as you overtake anyone on the trail, say things like "Excuse me, running late for my 10am."

I have good news for you, this exists. It's called the "suitsy" and it's made by the SF clothing company beta brand: https://gizmodo.com/a-hands-on-review-of-suitsy-the-silicon-valley-born-on-1705082495 https://gizmodo.com/a-hands-on-review-of-suitsy-the-silicon-... Unfortunately Beta Brand doesn't make them anymore, maybe it's fortunate, I don't personally know of that were good or bad.

There was a time in my life where I was feeding the cement mixer and building walls wearing a pair of expensive kenzo shoes and a business suit. I was convinced that cynicism was the only possible ethos. Now that I don't work anymore in the field I don't even wear suits.
