Thorns have tore me up to the point I wear long sleeved shirts and long pants. Rip stop BDU type work for me. Jungle weight if it's really hot. Also helps against tsetse. Those things suck miserably. I also wear shooting gloves in tsetse country - baseball batting gloves.

In South Africa on hunt I was wearing a short sleeve shirt made of heavy, durable cotton. An Acacia thorn ripped it in passing like a box cutter. Those things puncture tires, soles of boots and do rude things to your flesh. Hate those too!
