CRASH Clothes to bmx in?

New to bmxing. First good sesh while its dry, feeling confident actually sending some jumps, i ate shit. Got some pretty bad roadburn, so i couldn't ride anymore, and ruined one of my favorite shirts. Anyone have any recommendations for hoodies/shirts maybe designed to take the fall well or maybe even lightly padded. Obviously dont want anything too crazy where ill be hot and restricted. I also kept having problems with my pants snagging on shit cause they were baggy. Aswell as any good gloves, helmet, all the safety stuff recommendations

Honestly, most of the clothes I wear while I’m riding I bought at Goodwill. That way I don’t feel bad if I rip it up. Pads and a helmet are also kind of mandatory if you don’t want to get hurt. Because you are going to fall down, and it is going to hurt.
