In downtown Tokyo in summer that would mean a pair of dress slacks, loafers and an open necked white shirt. In downtown Brisbane I'd be comfortable in shorts, sandles and a loud sports shirt. :-) Hiking in the country, almost any country, I'll dress for comfort and practicality, which includes a photo vest, Tilley hat, or whatever. But in cities I try an scope out what a middle aged businessman on his day off would wear, and to dress accordingly. At the risk of annoying the LUG topic police, I feel that since the M Leica as well as earlier SM models are street cameras par excellance, how one carries them and uses them might be of as much interest to other LUGnuts as more arcane technical issues.
