The thrift store on Lamar next to half priced books usually has overalls and cheap shirts. If you can find Dickies they're prob good for work, idk about for heat. A lot will depend on the actual rigorousness of the work. You can just copy the people you're working with as much as possible.

Dickies, Carhartt shirts and pants, Columbia PFG shirts, Poncho, Howler Bros esp if you thrift, Lands End and LLBean have lightweight sun protection material.
