Twenties and Thirties Egyptologists/Explorers

I need some help and/or advice on outfits for Twenties and Thirties explorer outfits. I was thinking things like jodhpurs and pith-helmets but I'm not finding much along those lines. There is a bundle for M3 that has some of what I am looking for, but I'd rather M/V4 or G2.
Does anyone know of such outfits, either here or "out there" somewhere? I think I can cover non-exploring, or city life, outfits with flapper dresses, suits and some of that nice 1930s outfits. But things like I mentioned above, or era (or close to era) tents, and equipment, would be appreciated.
I've done a few searches but not coming up with anything. If you can give me some advice I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.

There are some others but I can't remember them just now. Will add if these are going in the right direction for you?
There is also an Italian Pith Helmet for M4 (30's early 40's) in this freebie:

It's my goto for WW1 Palestine ANZAC/Brit.Emp.
Thanks Pack58.
I have a few of these already, but I forgot about the options in Uniforms for Michael 6 (for example). And I forgot to expand my search to include "Indiana" or "Jones" to pick up some of those sort of pulp adventure sets, like Diana and Jones.
This is a very good start. Much appreciated.
Sweet. Here are some of the the others I've purchased with North Africa/Horn of Africa/Mid East pulp theme in mind.
I've included environments and alternate transport to donkeys/camels even though they are outside your request parameters, but what the hell.
Also I have a number of off site items that I can't link to without a more specific question but research sixus 1, panko, Ken Gilliland and Cybertenko.
You may well have or have already decided against these but here goes.

Campsite/traveling stuff (again some have more useful texture add-ons):

Environments:

http://www.daz3d.com/red-sands-temple (Ok more for a Napateanologist then Egyptologists but wow)
http://www.daz3d.com/cornucopia3d/ Bunch of suitable buildings (I have about half the MidEast stuff)
I have all these (except as noted) so if of interest and you want more info, ask.
Way cool! This information is invaluable. I'm going for that same Pulp look and same area.
Since the products themselves aren't invaluable I'll have to buy them over the course of time, but I really appreciate the info. I love the conrucopia3d items but they never seem to go on sale! Those Stalker Girl pants and boots I hadn't seen before. Thats a really good call.
More specifically I am looking for outfits like those below. The wider pith helmet, maybe with a cloth or veil, the jodhpurs, the high boots (the Stalker Girl boots fill that niche).
This is a link to the Daz ReadMe for what I think is the best "Explorer" camp set available.
It's no longer at Daz but a Google (DuckDuckGo or whatever) search will find it's new market place.
It's old and for Poser but it has all the basics.

Have you tried the M4 sunhelmet I listed above?
I do have a female sunhelmet somewhere, V or A4 I think, but I'm reorganizing my runtimes/backup drives and can't find it (reorganizing LOL). Pretty sure it has coloured ribbons and maybe a veil. I'll find it eventually and track down a link. !0 minutes after posting this I found what I was thinking of. It's an old Daz freebie for third generation figures, I don't have it, only a jpg and I doubt you will find it unless you got it at the time. Sorry, my bad.
For jodhpurs and boots as per your example sixus 1 has an Explorer for V4 set on 4 other sites.
