I second the military surplus store option. I visit one a couple times a year and there are a lot of bargains there from socks to pants & shirts to parka's. I recommend wool anything, in layers. Best clothing material since sheep were invented. It's quiet and will keep you warm even when wet. Last visit I saw parkas in the $30 range, shirts in the $10 - $15 range and I bought a pair of wool pants for $11, wore them all fall. The store owner said he got a buy on them because they were French military pants and they don't use them, (really). He said the only flaw in them is that they've been crapped in twice. (his idea). Anyway, check out an army surplus store in your area.
