14
15Whether it's a trip through the [[ThirstyDesert glaring heat]] of the Serengeti, a trek through the Antarctic ice in gale-force winds, a jaunt through time to a LostWorld or pulp sci-fi/steampunk adventures, these are the outfits you want to wear! Worn by the AdventurerArchaeologist, LadyOfAdventure, GreatWhiteHunter, EgomaniacHunter and GentlemanAdventurer, as well as the AcePilot, and, sometimes, the BoldExplorer.
16
17There are several stock ensembles that make up this trope, though it's sometimes mix-and-matched with other StockCostumeTraits:
18
19'''Safari Outfit:''' Going to Africa or the Middle East? You need loose beige or tan linens, a big brown belt, boots, a light scarf to keep the sun off your neck, a rifle and binoculars; a canteen, a safari hat called a pith helmet. ([[HighClassGlass Monocle]] optional but recommended). Usually, the wearer is a book-smart professor, but ignorant of what they should actually wear for the expedition. [[RealityIsUnrealistic Counterintuitively]] most of them needed more coverage in RealLife to avoid sunburns and harmful insects and during [[TheGay90s the age of African exploration]] the pith helmet was [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Henry_M_Stanley_1872.jpg the narrow-brimmed model]] of [[UsefulNotes/AngloZuluWar Zulu War]] vintage, not the broad-brimmed "Bombay Bowler" of the post-1900 years.
20
21'''Airman:''' Start with a bomber jacket (the kind with a large wool collar and lapels), then add a ScarfOfAsskicking, leather gloves and light boots.[[note]]These double as StylishProtectionGear; aircraft cabins can get pretty cold at altitude, and the scarf also prevents neck chafing from a flyer constantly turning his head to check his environment (especially in wartime).[[/note]] Usually has goggles (which [[TheGogglesDoNothing may or may not be useful]]) or a flying helmet, or sometimes a peaked cap from whichever air force they learned to fly in. When the Airman travels JustForFun/InSpace they'll probably swap out for a LatexSpaceSuit. If armed, it'll be with a pistol, as there's not much space in the cramped cockpit.
22
23'''Archaeologist:''' Think Franchise/IndianaJones. [[SignatureHeadgear A hat that stands out]], typically a wide brim {{fedora| of asskicking}}, PermaStubble if male, leather jacket, long-sleeved collared shirt, plain pants and sturdy boots, old pistol in a leather holster or harness, and AncientArtifact-holding satchel. If the character is a trope-for-trope {{Expy}} of Indy, they'll also have a whip. A vest may substitute for the jacket, and the pistol harness might become two for DualWielding.
24
25'''Polar Outfit:''' Arctic and Antarctic explorers must face icy winds, blizzards and blinding sun, but that's no reason [[StylishProtectionGear they can't be stylish!]] So they wear heavy, thick parkas with fur trim, big leather mittens with fur lining, large, well-insulated boots, and goggles with slits to preventsun blindness. The gun of choice in the Arctic is a large-calibre bolt-action rifle capable of protecting them from predatory polar bear. They carry food and supplies in a big backpack and often wear cross-country skis. The mountain climber is related, but add an oxygen tank and mask, crampon-equipped boots and an ice axe. In a pinch, a
26cold-themed superhero or villain can don this outfit as AnIceSuit.
27
28From 1915-1950s, all of the first three tend to wear [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jodhpurs jodhpurs]] (pants with extra room around the thighs to aid in horseback riding). A ''Film/MadMax'', post-apocalyptic Wanderer look can be related. A few settings take the Airman outfit, remove the scarf, [[ChainedByFashion adds chains]], lots of belts (though a few shy of TooManyBelts), [[DarkerAndEdgier much more grime]], a BadassBandolier and a rifle. A [[CanineCompanion trusty dog]] is optional, but recommended, but a [[BadassBiker motorcycle]] works as well. To add a {{Steampunk}} flavor to either of the above, add clocks, light metal armoring, a tool belt, and RayGun as needed.

34[[folder:Advertising]]
35* Emil Holub is a famous Czech traveller and explorer from the 19th century, and a safari outfit is a staple for his fictional portrayals. A series of adverts for beer company Pilsner Urquell employed the use of Czech patriots and historical figures. Emil Holub's adventure in Africa could not be achieved without this safari outfit and a couple of beers he brought with him. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFdz4Y4nB3I Link to YouTube.]]
36[[/folder]]
37
38[[folder:Anime and Manga]]
39* America in ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' has the "airman" look with a leather bomber jacket (sporting a giant "50" on his back) and black leather boots, and occasionally goes all-out with goggles, gloves, and a [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarII WWII]] Air Force hat. Of course, all done to complement his overblown LoveFreak attitude, his status as the AcePilot of the [[WeAREStrugglingTogether Allied forces]], and his self-declared role of "[[JumpedAtTheCall the hero]]".
40-->'''America:''' ''[[[TheUnintelligible slurping a milkshake]]]'' Allies... good guys... Axis... bad guys... ''[finishes milkshake]'' ...And the hero is ME!
41[[/folder]]
42
43[[folder:Comic Books]]
44* ''ComicBook/ComicCavalcade'': The well traveled botanist Iris, who ends up captured by the Turtle in ComicBook/TheFlash feature but only after shooting several of his henchmen, wears a white blouse with jodhpurs and a very visible shoulder holster.
45* ''ComicBook/TheFurtherAdventuresOfIndianaJones'': Indy, of course, wears his iconic Archaeologist outfit. One his villains, the evil treasure hunter Siegfried Klexx, wears the Safari version, including pith helmet and jodphurs, combined with BaldOfEvil and a HighClassGlass to make him the perfect embodiment of the EvilColonialist.
46* ''ComicBook/{{Heck}}'': The protagonist of the graphic novel wears a pulp-inspired outfit of leather and khaki.
47* ''ComicBook/{{Planetary}}'': Axel Brass' [[http://i.imgur.com/eGXbQ5C.jpg team]] depicts the Safari, Air Man and Archaeologist outfits as well as few other classic genre outfits.
48* ''ComicBook/TheRocketeer'': Cliff Secord/The Rocketeer is another good example of the adventure outfit, albeit with more of a pilot bent. His most common outfit is a pair of classic pilot boots, khaki pants, and a stylish double-breasted jacket. Also his rocket pack, which greatly adds to his adventurous nature by virtue of being a rocket pack.
49* ''Comicbook/{{Runaways}}'': Gert's Time-Traveling parents are a good generic explorer example, with all the leather and goggles and such.
50* ''ComicBook/TomorrowStories'': Greyshirt's occasional ally, the globetrotting adventuress Pandora Siam, dresses in a 1930s-style outfit of riding boots, jodhpurs, safari jacket and pith helmet.
51* ''ComicBook/VonHerlingVampireHunter'': August Von Herling wears the Archaeologist outfit complete with wide-brimmed hat, jacket and pants with plenty of pockets and a satchel for carrying weapons against vampires.
52* ''ComicBook/WonderWoman'' [[ComicBook/WonderWoman1942 Vol 1]]: Bobby and Glamora give the concept a nod with the way they don a pith helmet every time they get to go on an adventure, but other than putting on boots they just wear the Holliday Girls outfits they always wear.
53[[/folder]]
54
55[[folder:Fanfiction]]
56* [[AmoralAfrikaner Johanna Smith-Rhodes]] has the safari outfit look in Creator/AAPessimal's ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' fic ''Fanfic/NatureStudies''. But then, she's from [[DarkestAfrica Howondaland]], where ''everyone'' dresses like this, as befits the Discworld expy of [[UsefulNotes/SouthAfrica South Africa]]. Scroll forward by about two decades, and she is happily married and semi-retired from active adventuring - but her oldest daughter of three - a Witch, not an Assassin - chooses to dress like Mum. Some things are in the blood.
57** Elsewhere in the Pessimal Discworld, [[BadassBiker the Air Witches]] tend to favour the leather-jacket-and-flying-helmet look. although being Witches, the flying helmet tends to have a very distinct and recognisable pointy bit to it. This is when some of them are ''not'' dressing as UsefulNotes/{{Cossacks}}.[[note]]Even then the ''ushanka'' fur cap has a point on its crown[[/note]]
58* In the ''Manga/GunslingerGirl'' fanfic ''And the Adventure Continues'', Jethro has to fly a 1930's Grumman Goose into the South American jungle. When Monty gets him some jungle greens to wear, Jethro indulges his love of retro with the appropriate pith helmet, to her annoyance.
59* Penelope [=laFloo=] in ''Fanfic/VoyagesOfTheWildSeaHorse'' dresses in a combination of the Safari Outfit and Archaelogist looks, with the added quirk of being dressed to completely obscure every inch of exposed flesh... though, strangely, the clothing hugs her figure well enough to make it clear that she is ''quite'' curvaceous beneath, in an inversion of HiddenBuxom. She claims the all-concealing nature of her garb is due to her religion, which requires such covering in the name of modesty. [[spoiler:It's actually to hide that she's a skunk-featured member of the Mink Tribe.]]
60[[/folder]]
61
62[[folder:Film -- Animated]]
63* ''WesternAnimation/TheCurseOfTheWereRabbit'': Victor Quartermaine wears a safari outfit complete with an ascot.

73* ''Film/{{Beetlejuice}}:'' One of the souls in the Netherworld Waiting Room is a [[GreatWhiteHunter big game hunter]] who carries a rifle and wears a Safari Outfit, but with a slouch hat substituting for the pith helmet. Unfortunately, he can no longer wear his hat because his [[ShrunkenHead head has been shrunk!]]
74* ''Film/DennisTheMenaceDinosaurHunter'': Bones, the film's antagonist, wears a variation of the archaeologist version. He wears the hat, vest and boots but shorts instead of the normal long pants. He gives one of these outfits to Dennis too.
75* ''Film/GeorgeOfTheJungle'': At the start of the film Ursula, Lyle, and their guides wear safari outfits while on their trip through the jungle.
76* ''Film/HotShots''. Admiral Benson is wearing the traditional airman's jodphurs...while commanding a unit of jet fighter pilots. He explains that it's because his tailor ran short of cloth while halfway up his pants.
77* Franchise/IndianaJones is easily one of the best examples of this trope, if not the TropeCodifier. Not to mention his ''many'' [[{{Expy}} expies.]]
78** Indiana Jones himself is an {{Expy}} of many adventure movie heroes from the early 20th century, though his franchise has swallowed up the genre so effectively that few remember anything about them.
79* Creator/RogerMoore's Film/JamesBond notably wore safari suits in ''Film/{{Moonraker}}'' and ''Film/{{Octopussy}}''.
80* Dr Emil Holub was a Czech traveller who widely explored Africa in the 19th century. In the film ''[[Creator/JaraCimrman Jára Cimrman]], Lying, Sleeping'', he's seen sporting the safari/jungle outfit even when he's at home in Prague.

84* ''Film/KingKong1976'': Fred Wilson wears a safari jacket when he is on Skull Island.
85* In ''Film/MistressOfTheApes'', Cory and Thurston both wear versions of the Safari Outfit. GreatWhiteHunter Cory looks a lot better in his than FatSlob Thurston does.

92
93[[folder:Literature]]
94* Wesley of ''Literature/AboveTheTimberline'' wears a standard airman's outfit (including the leather cap, goggles, and bomber jacket) while exploring the frozen tundra. The first leg of his expedition sees him piloting a glider-like snowmobile to make use of his pilot's training, but he didn't pack anything warmer for the journey into the frozen wastelands. Even after receiving a practical long coat from the Shadow Moon Monastery, he keeps the hat and goggles. [[spoiler: His father Galen]] wears similar garb even after being stranded in the hidden city for half a year.
95* ''Between Silk and Cyanide'' by Leo Marks. Marks is assigned to reform the SOE code section in Cairo. His [[JewishMother horrified parents]], aghast at the countless dangers of the tropics, give him a pith helmet and make him swear never to take it off. He obediently carries it everywhere with him, greatly bemusing the Cairo Section personnel who are wearing nothing like it. One asks if he's carrying a secret recorder in there.
96* Literature/{{Biggles}} and his colleagues usually wear the Airman variant (heck, they and their contemporaries were arguably the TropeCodifier) but on occasion, they'll don Safari Outfits for hot climates.
97* The frontispiece of ''The Compleat Literature/{{Discworld}} Atlas'' is the crest of the Ankh-Morpork Guild of Trespassers (formerly the Society of Explorers, until Vetinari pointed out there were always people already living in the places they "discovered"). The supporters of the crest are a man in a safari outfit and a woman in the female equivalent (long skirt, light jacket, and broad-brimmed hat tied in place with a ribbon). [[DarkestAfrica Howondaland Smith]] is also shown in a safari suit in the illustration of a Balgrog pelt.
98* The ComedicHero of ''Literature/{{Scoop}}'', the 1938 satire by Evelyn Waugh, is a country wildlife writer who's accidentally sent overseas as a war correspondent. He's sent to the requisite adventure outfitters who, realising his naivete, sell him a [[LotsOfLuggage vast mountain of clothing and equipment which he lugs to Africa with him]].
99* Tails momentarily wears an airman costume in ''Literature/SonicTheHedgehogInRobotniksLaboratory'' before being told by Sonic to take it off.
100* Commander Bradshaw wears a safari outfit in the ''Literature/ThursdayNext'' series. His books were adventure stories that fell out of favour and went out of print after the 1920s, but he had to stay in character in the [=BookWorld=].
101[[/folder]]
102
103[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
104* ''Series/DoctorWho''
105** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS25E4TheGreatestShowInTheGalaxy "The Greatest Show in the Galaxy"]]: Captain Cook wears a safari outfit.
106** [[Recap/DoctorWhoS29E3Gridlock "Gridlock"]]: Brannigan wears an airman outfit, complete with goggles, while being essentially a suburban dad stuck in the universe's worst traffic jam.
107* In Season 3 of ''Series/TheFlash2014'', when the team is about to embark on a trip to Gorilla City on Earth-2, Julian dresses up in the classic archaeologist getup. [[LampshadeHanging Cisco even asks "Indiana Jones much?" while Julian calls it " the perfect attire"]].
108* Travelling Matt from ''Series/FraggleRock'', safari outfit.
109* ''Series/{{Leverage}}'': Eliot wears one of the Indiana Jones variety when leading [[TheCon the mark]] through a jungle in "The Boiler Room Job".
110* ''Radio/OurMissBrooks'': In "Safari O'Toole", the titular character wears a safari outfit (complete with pith helmet) to Mrs. Davis' birthday party.
111* ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration''. Q dresses like this in "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS4E20Qpid Qpid]]" when he steals Picard's adventurer archaeologist love interest.
112* ''Series/StarTrekVoyager''. The outfit of [[ShowWithinAShow holodeck hero]] [[Film/TheAdventuresOfCaptainProton CAPTAIN PROTON!]], which is an Airman outfit plus JetPack in the style of black-and-white sci-fi adventure serials like ''Commando Cody''. So adventurous, [[BatmanCanBreatheInSpace it even works in space]].
113* ''Series/{{Warehouse 13}}'': When investigating Warehouse Two, H.G. Wells dresses like a Lara Croft {{expy}}
114** Flashbacks to the 1920s show a former Warehouse agent wearing Indiana Jones clothing in New Mexico.
115[[/folder]]
116
117[[folder:Manhwa]]
118* ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod:'' After the TimeSkip, Khun sports one of these and reminds everybody of a boy scout.
119[[/folder]]
120

123* In the video for ''Music/{{Madness|Band}}''' song "Night Boat to Cairo" from ''Music/OneStepBeyondAlbum'', the band are all wearing safari-style outfits.
124* In "Roar", Music/KatyPerry and a handsome BoldExplorer start off wearing the safari version. Subverted when the hero quickly gets eaten by a tiger and Perry's character discards the outfit as she changes from DamselInDistress to a [[FanService scantily-clad]] JunglePrincess.
125* Music/ProfessorElemental's usual attire.
126[[/folder]]
127
128[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
129* For reasons unknown, the "Airman" look has become standard fashion for [[{{Magitek}} Techno-Wizards]] in ''TabletopGame/{{Rifts}}''.
130* In ''TabletopGame/RocketAge'' flying leathers, dusters and so on count as armour and can grant social bonuses for having the 'right look'.
131* Plenty of illustrations in ''TabletopGame/{{Space 1889}}'' feature similar outfits. Since the game is set in 1889 and wilderness treks and exploring are important themes, this is perfectly justified.
132[[/folder]]
133
134[[folder:Theatre]]
135* Two plays of ''[[Creator/JaraCimrman Jára Cimrman]]'s Theatre'' make use of the safari outfit:
136** ''[[Theatre/CimrmanInMusicDomain Cimrman in the Music Domain]]'', with a sub-title "Educational evening with a one-act opera ''[[ShowWithinAShow The Success of the Czech Engineer in India]]''" . This outfit is worn by a British governor colonel.
137** In ''[[Theatre/{{Africa}} Africa, or Czechs among Cannibals]]'', the leader of the expedition, Dr. Emil Žába, wears this outfit throughout the play. (Emil Žába means Emil 'Frog', which might allude to a real Czech traveller Emil Holub – Holub means 'pigeon'.)
138[[/folder]]
139
140[[folder:Theme Parks]]
141* Ride/UniversalStudios:
142** In ''Ride/SkullIslandReignOfKong'' at Universal's Islands of Adventure, most of the characters wear 30's-style Archaeologist uniforms, with leather jackets, long pants, and large boots.
143** Concept art for the ''[[Ride/UniversalsHouseOfHorror Universal's New House of Horrors]]'' haunted house from ''Theatre/HalloweenHorrorNights'' 1996 has a man dressed in a brown fedora with matching jacket and a white skirt disturbing [[Film/TheMummy1932 the Mummy]]'s tomb.
144[[/folder]]
145
146[[folder:Toys]]
147* The ''Franchise/GIJoe Adventure Team'' in the 1970s had a few desert-themed sets featuring explorer outfits in differing amounts.

149[[/folder]]
150
151[[folder:Video Games]]
152* ''VideoGame/AgarestSenki'' has Noa, an elf girl who's living her life finding treasures, spots a Safari type with little pants.
153* ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingNewHorizons'' lets you put together your own outfit like this with the explorer's hat, explorer shirt, and explorer shorts clothing items.
154* Sir Hammerlock of ''VideoGame/Borderlands2'' wears a rather anachronistic safari outfit, though rather than a monocle he simply has one of the lenses of his glasses cracked.
155* Of all the ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' heroes, [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaAriaOfSorrow Julius Belmont]] looks the closest to an Indiana-adventurer style for the way he dresses - a brown cape and a red scarf. [[VideoGame/CastlevaniaBloodlines John Morris]] is fairly close behind him, as well as Wind from ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaPortraitOfRuin''.
156* An Archeologist-style outfit is one of the unlockables in ''VideoGame/{{Dig to China}}''. According to the description, it "[[GogglesDoNothing does nothing]], [[RuleOfCool looks slick]]".
157* You can get just such a costume in ''VideoGame/FableII.''
158* Ezreal in ''Franchise/LeagueOfLegends'' does a steampunk-esque version of the AdventureArchaeologist type -- leather jacket, [[GogglesDoNothing goggles]], TooManyBelts, and heavy boots. In one of his skins, he wears the goggles properly and adds a hard hat, a coil of rope, and a flashlight strapped to one thigh.
159* A safari outfit (complete with mustache) is one of Winston's skins in ''VideoGame/{{Overwatch}}''.
160** Ashe and B.O.B. would later get this treatment as well with their "Jungle" and "Safari" skins.
161* AdventurerArchaeologist Edward Falcon from the ''VideoGame/PowerStone'' series doesn't wear an Archaeologist-style outfit. Unlike Indy, he actually flies his own plane, so he wears an all-red variation on the Aviator outfit.
162* Razputin Aquato from ''VideoGame/{{Psychonauts}}'' wears variations of the airman outfit throughout the games: flight helmet, goggles, a bomber jacket, a turtleneck sweater, leather gloves, and light boots. His new outfit in the second game swaps the bomber jacket for a trench coat.
163* Red from ''VideoGame/SolatoroboRedTheHunter'' wears a variant of the Airman outfit, with gloves, a parka-esque hat, [[GogglesDoNothing Goggles That Do Nothing]], and a furry shoulder-cape replacing the bomber jacket and scarf.
164* The Seeker's outfit in ''VideoGame/SoulVoid'' resembles the AdventureArchaeologist version of this, with his BadassLongcoat and FedoraOfAsskicking.
165* ''VideoGame/SphinxAndTheCursedMummy'' has a dog-man dressed like this, including the pith helmet, in Ancient Egypt. [[MST3KMantra It probably doesn't bear thinking about.]]
166* In ''VideoGame/SuperMarioOdyssey'':
167** Two of the outfits Mario can purchase are a safari based Explorer outfit and cap in the Wooded Kingdom, and an Aviator outfit and cap in the Lost Kingdom. [[spoiler:The first outfit is required to get a Power Moon.]]
168** [[spoiler:Princess Peach]] wears a safari outfit in some of the kingdoms [[spoiler:she]] explores.
169* [[GreatWhiteHunter Captain Ash]] in the ''VideoGame/TimeSplitters'' games.
170* Lara Croft from ''Franchise/TombRaider'' puts a "[[ActionGirl feminine]]" touch to the AdventurerArchaeologist.
171** Concept art for the original game show that Lara's iconic aquamarine top isn't a shirt but a one-piece bathing suit. Considering all the swimming she does in the game, pretty practical.
172** The [[VideoGame/TombRaider2013 2013 reboot]] features the "Aviatrix" DLC, which unlocks a classic adventurer outfit as gear for Lara.
173* ''VideoGame/{{Uncharted}}'' has Drake in archaeologist gear.
174[[/folder]]
175
176[[folder:Webcomics]]
177* Lord Moonbark of ''Webcomic/GirlGenius'', who's been "skulking about collecting the notes of dead sparks" for Her Undying Majesty but has still found the time for some adventure, no doubt likely because he's a spark himself is introduced wearing [[http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20171120 a pith helmet, and a herringbone suit with leather elbow patches.]]
178[[/folder]]
179
180[[folder:Web Animation]]
181* Aree the Safari Droid from ''WebAnimation/StarWarsGalaxyOfCreatures'' is designed in a way to emulate a stereotypical explorer, with a tannish color scheme, a backpack, and a head that looks like a pith helmet.
182[[/folder]]
183
184[[folder:Web Original]]
185* ''Blog/HowToHero'' recommends donning one of these if you're going to explore caves and ancient temples in search of magical artifacts.
186* Rachel Maksy has done an entire video in which she curates ten adventurer outfits in this vein titled [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKfrgvO4IYs 10 Outfits To Pretend You're a Vintage-y Explorer]]. Each one tied to a different adventurer characher achetype from gunslinger to treasure hunter to traveling linguist. The costumes tend to include brown jodhpurs or a skirt in various tans along with a white blouse and some kind headgear for sun protection.
187* ''WebVideo/WorldsGreatestAdventures''[='=]s R. H. Talltales has an off-kilter variation on the Archaeologist, with the wide-brimmed FedoraOfAsskicking and the satchel, but a goofy short-sleeved striped shirt instead of a jacket and long unruly hair and beard instead of [[PermaStubble Heroic Stubble]].
188* ''WebVideo/WorldWarTwo'': Featured as part of the set dressing, a safari hat and brown coat can be seen draped over the [[CoolChair Chair of Infinite Knowledge]] in the background behind host Indy Neidell in Episode 42 - "Britain Votes to Leave".
189[[/folder]]
190
191
192[[folder:Western Animation]]
193* ''WesternAnimation/{{Archer}}'':
194** Cyril is kitted out in a Safari outfit in "El Contador," when sent on his first field mission to the jungle - as opposed to Archer and Lana's more practical black tactical gear. Teddy Roosevelt jokes ensue.
195** In Season 3, AcePilot Rip Riley sports a more rugged version of this outfit. Archer is not impressed.
196--->''"...that ridiculous image you're trying to cultivate... Sky Captain of yesteryear!"''
197* Simon Belmont in ''WesternAnimation/CaptainNTheGameMaster'' wore a pilot's outfit, with goggles and a backpack. The only problem is the Simon Belmont from the ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'' franchise that this Simon is ''supposed'' to be based off is a VampireHunter and doesn't dress anything like this.
198* Chip on ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'', archaeologist (but with the bomber jacket from the aviator selection).
199** Monterrey Jack, aviator outfit.
200* WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck sometimes wears a pith helmet in the few times he goes adventuring in the jungle. In the opening of ''WesternAnimation/DonaldInMathmagicLand'' he wears the full safari outfit [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal (sans pants)]].
201* Launchpad [=McQuack=] from ''WesternANimation/DuckTales1987'' and ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'', aviator outfit.
202* The heroes of ''WesternAnimation/FilmationsGhostbusters'' sported this look. Jake was the safariman; Eddie, the airman (with a BadassLongcoat for good measure); and Tracy, the archaeologist. Old-fashioned adventurers sometimes wore their cameras around their necks, a look which the Ghostbusters mirrored with their neck-worn CommLinks.
203* Colonel Rimfire, who chased after late sixties ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' character Cool Cat wears the classic safari outfit.
204* Olivia Ostrich in ''WesternAnimation/JourneyThroughTheJungleOfWords''.

206* AdventurerArchaeologist and Indy expy Daring Do from the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' episode "Read it and Weep" sports a safari shirt and pith helmet.
207* {{Invoked|Trope}} in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheNewAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh'', in which they're making a movie and Christopher Robin gives Pooh an airman style scarf to show that he's TheHero.
208* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Mr. Burns wears one in "The Burns and the Bees" when he shoots a basketball team mascot he thought was a real gorilla.
209* The Super Adventure Club from ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' spoofs this.
