I wear Honig's plate shoes. They have served me well and are relatively economical. I'd recommend the high tops. For the mask, the composites are the lightest, but there are lightweight wire frame masks, too. They weigh much less than the heavy style, but more than the composites. But, they cost much less, too.

I recommend the Wilson West Vest single bar lightweight mask - costs about $50 with standard pads, a bit more with better pads.

Here is a link with one on-line source:
