Hasn't this been covered, and flamed about 30 times before?

Oh yeah, it definately has.
BUT! There is one advantage: You can act like a stupid kid and say you're playing ninja and maybe get off with a warning and a lot of humiliation after the cops are done laughing at you.

| | | | If I was going for a uniform, I'd pick overalls, tool belt, and hard hat. Where as in if someone sees you dressed as a ninja going into an abandoned building, they'll probably just stare at you, think "what an idiot", and phone the cops, if you look like you belong, they'll figure you're with a construction crew.

| | | | Then again it can be just about anything, not overalls. The ideal situation is not to be seen, but if you can't bypass that (too crowded an area) just make it look like you're someone who belongs there. Walk around like you know what you're doing, be creative with uniform. You can probably climb telephone polls or mess with telephone boxes all day and tamper with phone lines as long as you have a hardhat and pole climbing shoes on. Noone's going to stop you if you look like you're with the telephone company. Apply that to UE if you have to. Be creative.
If entering a very large, active building during the day, where there's tons of employees, wear a suit and tie. Walk in, act like you know what you're doing and you're supposed to be there.
I guess the point is: Be creative.

| | | | Well, since the idea behind the "ninja suit" is head-to-toe clothing to help blend in against your background and break up your silhoutte, it would be perfect. Perfect in a very limited variety of conditions.
There is almost no location common to UE with only one color or texture to it. So the concept would be lost here. The concept isn't totally useless. Camouflage is the modern day suit. But if you look at the different types and colors available, you'll easily see why the idea is not very practical. You'd need several different colors and patterns to match so many surroundings, and even then, the unexpected happens, and you're forced into an environment where the suit matches little, or nothing at all.
Ghillie suits are an excellent example of the bad in ninja suits. You look just like a bush. Perfect for a garden, horrible for downtown sidewalks or construction sites.
My suggestion, to the ninja hipsters, if you must experiment with form-dispersing garments, do so "on the cheap". Don't buy authentic ninja uniforms or ghillie suits. Military camo "BDU" clothing can be cheaper, but why not just get some shirts and pants in solid colors. If you need patterns, you can always paint or dye them into the solids. Get hoods, gloves, shoes or shoe coverings to match. Keep things baggy, so from a distance nothing looks like a contoured part of the human body. Sew some fabric flaps to parts of the clothing to break up the distinctive shape.
Or, just stick to shadows and cover. Save your money.

| | | | I recommend cheap street clothes (hit up a goodwill store)
I know i'll be repeating many, many people when I say this, but wear clothes that you don't care about, they WILL get stained, filthy, ripped, and possibly torn off your body by the hidden society of sex perverts you stumble across in a subterranean complex. the one exception is a good pair of gloves, I have a pair of leather gloves that are stab-proof, you just never know when you're going to get poked i.e: if a stairway collapses under your weight and you grab the rusty railing to keep from falling. as a personal preference, I like cargo pants, one can carry quite a bit of stuff around in them, and thus forego the
uber-suspicious backpack.
I highly recommend tyvek "marshmallow suits" to anyone interested in UE, they're breathable, but water proof, and highly tear-resistant. they're also dirt cheap (check american science and surplus, or cheaper than dirt). the downside to them is that they're usually white, but you'll look like part of a hazmat team, so alot of people will think a) you're supposed to be there, and b)that they don't want to know what's going on in the building, if a hazmat team is inside.
