Not sure whether I'd be a Man or an Elf, but if of the races of men, then Son of Gondor, and the following gear, assuming I was going on a journey and not directly into battle in which case I'd want as much armour as possible.

Black Gondorian tunic, black breaches, Gondorian soldier's cuirass with gorget, a light helmet with ear-slots to allow better hearing, one-piece shoulder pauldrons, Gondorian vambraces, rearbraces, one-piece tassets with engraved sea-bird wings like Elendil's, cuisses with attached polleyns, tall leather lace-up boots like Faramir's, Gondorian cross-belt with either a bastard sword or a two-handed greatsword, several daggers of varying lengths, a longbow and quiver of arrows, a large grey-green or black cloak, and no chain-maille to save weight and make less noise.
