@@ManvsHistory I don’t think it was too fast, it was perfect. I think this is one of your best videos yet, not because of the info, which is always of great quality but the way you did it this time with examples of outfits in every cold scenery. Amazing job! 👍
@@zizouurb6332 Thank you, buddy. I too like that format as well. These outfits look better out in the world, than just standing in a dressing room. Helps to see them in the light, and used in different weather conditions. I'll try and keep doing them this way.
I'm no cowboy here in maine but my preferred cold weather outfit is so fleece lined jeans, a chamois flannel shirt, and either my hardy leather jacket if I'm working or a large wool blanket I wrap around myself if I'm out walking.
And even then, 3F isn't bad unless it's humid. -20F[-28C] is when staying outside gets miserable. That's only speaking for Western Montana, where we're almost desert dry.
I think that with whatever the next outfit video is you should give more information on the roleplay aspect, like showing some realistic weapons you could use.
Great video as always! I would love to see a video on prospectors and miners, perhaps annesberg’s historical accuracy? I find their history fascinating!
Since I saw The Hateful Eight I fell in love with the winter cowboy look. Kurt Russell's, Samuel L Jackson's and Channing Tatum's outfits looks incredible in that movie.
@@ManvsHistory Yeah. Merlin's Hideout made the buffalo coats for the movie. Their coats cost about 3000 dollars or something like that. I would love to own one someday but they are too pricey for me at this moment.
I like the bear coat from gus, just looks a bit too bulky on my character as he's a big dude as it is. Also the colours look abit off, apart from the black one.
My winter outfit has so much fur that I could go into a dog show and the judges wouldn't notice a thing! Black Sobol hat, black pelt-half chaps, silver bear buckle gloves and black Maerbay coat. Also bear saddle and bigpaw saddle bag for horse!
I could legit listen to you talk all day long. This stuff intrigued me so much and you do such a great job at explaining everything in detail. Thank you
These videos are so good. They have really interesting information and go into so much detail while still being easy to follow. They're just great and I can't wait for more
For as long as I can remember, I've always loved the idea of the Northern Old West. I love the idea of Cowboys in snow and cold in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, and areas like that. Heck, even the Klondike gold rush in Alaska/Canada in the 1890's still fascinates me to this day. Don't get me wrong, I still love the westerns and stories from the plains and the deserts and places like that, but I always thought the colder northern areas were sort of overlooked because they didn't match with the popular depictions of cowboys and the Old West. I guess this is just my way of thanking you again, Man vs. History for such another amazing video. I'm doing my best to share you with my friends (they loved the buffalo chips episode) because the quality of you content is amazing. So, heres to a warm rest of the winter for you, stay toasty and warm good sir, and I can't wait for the next video!
Thank you, Cameron! I appreciate that, my friend! I'm with you. Growing up I must have watched 'White Fang' 100 times. Fell in love with the Klondike- that mixture of gold & cold. That wilderness of wolves. Even though it wasn't 'The West', I always associated it as part of that story. I recently went back and read every Jack London book I could get my hands on and they spoke to my soul. There's just something about those adventures, the high stakes game of survival, the animals, the weather, the beautiful struggle of it all.
@@ManvsHistory Yeah my aunts got me Call of the Wild and White Fang when I was little and I was hooked by those books and by London's writing style. It's just such a fascinating time and period that seemed to almost inherit a western feel to it. Plus it's just fun to imagine Rocky Mountains with forests draped in a beautiful layer of snow and ice, with men ranching in their sheep lined jackets or maybe out hunting elk in a buffalo coat.
Thanks, Colin! I just make them when I can, as I know other times I can't. Glad I was able to get these last ones out about two weeks a part, though. Just don't hold me to that pace!
I had my old original Fish Brand pommel slicker for so long that I out grew it. Maybe it shrunk or something or got too close to the fire but I carried it rolled up on the back of my saddle more than I ever wore it. When I went to get a new and bigger one, the western wear store guy told me "they quit making them but if you give me your old one for my collection I'll give you a brand new replica style slicker." It wasn't yellow but more darker orangey. I never liked the yellow anyway. So That's what I did. I liked it better but I wore that one out rolled up on the back of my saddle too. It started to stick to itself and the rubber coating stuff was peeling off. I gave that away a couple of years ago. When I moved to working in 'buckaroo' country around Idaho, Oregon, Nevada I found that carrying anything rolled up on the back of your saddle was seen as tacky and unbuckaroo-like. So, I adapted and if I started out the day with a heavy coat on and it got warmer I just toughed it out kept the coat on till we got back to the barn. Didn't want to look like a 'gunsel'. Another thing boys, don't ever leave the halter on your horse's head underneath your bridle or snaffle bit rig. You'll damn sure be thought of as a gunsel leppy dumass if you do.
We ended up tranqing it and dragging it over lol then it just upped and disappeared on us... lol it would of been hysterical to watch but a little frustrating in the moment... 😄
God bless, catching up on your videos I missed. Never disappointed and always absolutely shocked by the effort and detail put into this. The fact your taking time out your day by contacting and studying all these sources is amazing. Thankyou sir!!
You know what I'd love to see?? The historical accuracy of the craftable explosive munitions offered in the game! I've found a little bit, but you're way better at this than I am 💥
I absolutely love the production value of these vids. Your voice is also enjoyable to listen to as it's very articulate and smooth, as well as the information being very interesting and well spoken. Thank you, hope you continue to make vids for years to come!
I love your videos and can see that you put a lot of work into them. I hope you make a video on historically accurate mexican outlaws or vaqueros someday
Have been playing dressed as a lawman and Bass Reaves from your previous video for some time, and now I know what to dress the next time I switch clothes in rdo. Thank you for enhancing my rdo experience!
Thank you for sharing the information. My favorite coat for winter in Red Dead Online is the coat in gus store that can be crafted by a perfect grizzly bear.
I like how the instrumental sound of the old west I are hymns ha. Tho, I do know most are the result of making words to a popular tune but still. It’s nice to hear them played in this style.
7:58 There's a haircut that you can unlock if you're high enough as a collector that makes you wear a bandana over your head, but it does cost two gold bars.
If you're going for the cowboy look, mustaches or being clean shaven are safe picks. Beards were a thing, obviously, but most kept their face smooth or whiskered. If your character is more on the rugged or dirty side, i'd recommed maybe the walrus along with the stubble as twirling your mustache requires mustache wax (for most, some peoples staches grow a little in that shape naturally! I'm not sure on how common sideburns or muttonchops were with working men, i have no proper source for this at this instant, but to me it seemed a little more of a slightly fancier style as it'd require more upkeep.
Your videos really help me create a character for RDR2 online. The character in case anybody's wondering, and if you aren't that's okay, is a young man by the name of Andrew J. Roberts, but everyone knows him as Buckshot Roberts he got the name, after his dad came home drunk and shot him with a shotgun loaded with buckshot when he was only 15. After Buckshot got healed up he then left home and worked at the McFarlane ranch as a cowboy or ranch hand, but after a incendt with cattle rustlers, were Buckshot killed three of them, he then left at the age of 18 and went to blackwater and became a stage coach guard and after doing that for a few months he was able to get a place of his own, then he quiet be a guard and then became a hired gun protecting fields. He then got framed for the murder of Jessica LeClerk's husband, and after six months of hard labor at Sisika penitentiary he then broke out and escaped off the island and know works as a bounty hunter seeking redemption. Their is a lot more to his backstory, and this is just the short version of it. I am truly sorry that this is a long read, and for context about me I am not an author I just like creating a character with a backstory for fun. Stay safe say second amendment.
Stay toasty, my friends.

By watching this video I found out that my outfit was already historically accurate for cold weather, love the videos man.
You're ahead of the game, Alex! Well done!
Same here, I've been using the heavy coat from Gus and sobol hat, I love this combo so it's great to learn that it's historically accurate.
