I wouldn't suggest anything with cotton in it. While cotton is just fine for day-to-day wear, and even for an overnight or weekend camping trip, if you might be hiking in weeklong rain in 35 degree weather you don't want a fabric that doesn't keep you warm when it's wet. Even when soaking wet, my PV kilt kept me warm. Cotton will actually pull the heat from your body when it's wet.
