Countryman EMW with shelved response (note that a long long time ago I
worked for Countryman, but I use their stuff because it¹s good, not because
of some long-ago fond memories). Waterproof (yes, proof), strong cable, good
sound. I like it more than TRAMS.

Audio Technica AT899 is a decent lav...one bundle includes lots of
attachments.

Geez, there are a bunch. I own and use different lavs for different
situations. I like the Sanken COS-11 a lot, but it¹s substantially more
expensive. But I think either the EMW or AT would be a decent
moderately-priced choice.

Hope this helps.
