I would suggest that you go with either Overpants or riding jeans to start with. Preferably armored, but you can go a little cheaper on the pants and buy some field armor too.
Overpants are nice, in that they go OVER whatever you are wearing, meaning that for 30sec worth of hassle (not much), you have protection and you don’t have to change out of your gear when you get to work, just unzip and slide them off. An up side and a downside to them however is that they are usually waterproof/windproof, which means that they are quite warm on hot days, but if it is a little drizzly out you don’t have to worry about your clothes getting wet.
