I finally said, "Dude, what is up with the getup?" He told me that he had chased a guy into some underbrush and came down with poison ivy so badly that he vowed never to go into the woods again without being covered from head to toe. I pointed out that his knees were exposed from the top of his tube socks to the bottom of his shorts. He shrugged and said, "Who cares about knees?"
Ok, point taken.

Drift alert----

The purple do rag was the perfect accessory for that Johnny Cash biking outfit!! He should invest in a good bottle of Ivy Block! Even a scarf?!! I'm very allergic to poison ivy, too, so when my husband does lawn work, he has to coat himself in Ivy block and dress in a "hazmat" suit (gloves included). One time, he didn't take precautions and didn't use Technu in the shower to clean up. I ended up with my entire back covered in a PI rash and my immune system when nuts, spreading the rash to my legs, arms, etc. Ended up taking oral steroids...
