Clothing Quiz help please......

[HRHQoQ]

I've got a quiz here which is a fundraiser for our church - it cost £1 for it, and the prize is a £20 M&S voucher.......they've extended the closing date by 2 weeks (to the 1st Sunday in December) as NO-ONE has managed to finish it yet - they're all finidng it really hard......I only found this out tonight.....and thought perhaps my wonderful MN'er friends could help me out. All answers are items of clothing........ and the numbers in brackets are how many letters. It's a long one I'm afraid.......and I'm completely stumped on the majority......but I'd love a £20 M&S voucher to treat us to something.

I'm not very good at 'cryptic' stuff

eight letters - clue is 'embarking with G and 2'
Several of us have been struggling with it for a few days. Consensus is that it could be 'galoshes'.

what was the answer to 2?
Is it linked to that?

jeans

seen the reason. seems a bit long but could be right!
Better than I can think of!!
