Flannel shirt, bib overalls and a straw hat! I would be ---
APPLEKNOCKER MAN!
Not that I expect anyone here to get that joke.... (If you do, please send me an email as we HAVE to talk.)

For the record- I'd go with boxer-briefs.
Appleknocker? Isn't that some kind of slang for farmer or hick?
You planning on tellin' yarns & tall tales to lull your opponents into a stupor so you and your bloodhound (Buck) can corner them and fill their backsides full of buckshot?

Actually Appleknocker is a festival in Illinois. As far as the costume based on my superpowers... I guess I dont really need a costume, just a small pouch of holding to hold all the money and jewelery Id recieve as a result of my super powers. I could even get a giant Immovable rod to be my pole so I can travel from place to place getting rich.

For the record, an Appleknocker isn't a festival, it is an occupation, a person that holds that occupation and the implement with which do said occupation...
Appleknocker n - 1. a long stick between 10 and 20 feet in length with a metal cup with a serrated edge on the end. This stick is raised upward into an apple tree knocking the apple off of the tree into the cup, it is then safely retreived. 2. A person that utilizaes an appleknocker. 3. The profession of knocking apples from orchard trees. 4 - MY HIGH SCHOOL MASCOT!!!! and number 1 on ESPN's most unique school mascots for three years running between 1989 - 1992 (I think they gave us a 'Name of Fame' honor and then kept us out of the contest ever since.)
Dude...a 20' pole with a serrated edge?
Become Appleknocker Moyel and strike fear into your enemies!

Didn't want to go there, but there was a reason that Pole Arm was my favorite D&D weapon growing up.

Not sure about the outfit without knowing powers.
But the costume would have to include those wicked jackboots with the external steel toe sprouting a pair of serrated curved knives I saw on some movie years ago.
