Preventing clothes noise on radio mic at DVinfo.net

Using a Sennheiser EW100 lav mic, is there any way of reducing noises produced when clothing rubs with the mic? Or maybe a better holder?

Thanks guys

Are you trying to hide the mic (film), or leaving it exposed (news reporters)?

The Rycote products help, as does moleskin (available at your local drugstore). However, the biggest help will be trying to wire the mic so you get less rustle. I use the Rycote stickies to help me stick areas down which can cause issues.
