The "No, absolutely not," comment in the video about underwear, was that I'm not going to talk about it or I'm not wearing them. I mean, they do call it 'going commando.' 😁
Detention officer here, get you some regular, soft, cargo pants, a nice heather or soft under shirt, a upf50 or whatever it is long sleeve, a baseball cap from Walmart with no logos, and some OSHA approved sunglasses Its "contactor grade" no one will ever question it, you blend in with the "help", its usually durable, its quiet, and no one questions you havong weird tools or backpacks on you.
I was dressed like that when my brother and I were going to the cemetery to clean Dad's grave and we stopped at the market to grab tools. When I walked into store, the cashier was confused about what the security guard wanted from her and wasn't responding to me wanting to buy stuff until my brother who wasn't dressed like that entered and asked the same question. It was pretty embarrassing
Darn Tough and Farm to Feet as well. Both are lifetime guaranteed. Farm to Feet is here in the Carolinas, so I got them to support a local business, and really like em. Not sure how they fared during the "hurricane," as I think they are in the mountains (Asheville area).
@@XDWX Really? I wasn't aware. That sucks. I don't understand why these companies need to take stupid political stances... just sell socks! I guess, no more DT for me. I need to look into Farm to Feet, how they stand on the issue.
@Tbowie13 Grunt Proof has a video about it but it's a bit older. I know it's unfortunate. I have a bunch of DT socks and was disappointed. Drymax is a 2A supporter too and US made.
Great video! Some advice for colder climates: vintage wool flannels are criminally underrated for their value. Bulky 22-28 oz wool flannel jackets work great even in -10 degree temps and can be had for under $50.
Pro tip: if your clothes have a smell (jeans mainly) put them in the freezer first, rather than try to just wash them. Been doing this for a few years now and it has worked amazingly well
Just make sure you take the feet out of the boots and shoes, and the lower torso out of the jeans. The frozen blood is easier to remove. Dab, do not rub the blood stains.
As a Minnesota rancher and hunter myself can confirm a pair of Darn Tough socks and Muck boots make for happy feet in the winter. Duluth trading company firehouse work pants if you want to split the difference on pants (16:50).
Glad to see someone address boots and socks. When I was active duty I got trench foot twice; and years later are still dealing with the consequences. If your feet are hurting you’re useless. Get. Good. Boots.
Year round preparedness Cholo style in the desert southwest: 1) khaki pants or grey chinos 2) OD green or grey Chuck Taylors 3) bandanna-face mask, sweat band, and emergency tourniquet 4) linen clothing-lighter, easier breathing, stronger than Cotten, and anti microbial which is great for underwear or staying cooler outside 5) fedoras come in earthen colors and look stylish-Panama hats blend into the environment too and great for hot weather 6) flannels for winter wear
@tjlovesrachel I would take that as an insult if the Americans didn’t take an entire month to celebrate gayness. Not a lot of clout when the entire western culture is beholden to degeneracy, because they abandoned almost all forms of traditional culture.
I just got internet. Woke up after Hurricane Helene to a natural disaster situation. My clothes were a t-shirt and shorts. Crocs were even worse than I thought, it was definitely worth taking the extra time to put on socks and proper footwear. Desert combat boots have been my go-to with this heat.
The one advantage of Crocs is using them as camp/bathroom shoes. Slip on slip off and they dry almost instantly. Using them for anything serious I wouldn't recommend. I say this as someone who doesn't years seeking camp/hike/outdoor shoes.
I bought some desert combat boots from a surplus site... good quality and great price. Only downside is I regularly get vets asking me about my military service I guess they can't imagine anyone actually buying those boots.
You are by far becoming my favorite channel. You understand the balance and are not trying to sell me on tactical products. When I first got into this I bought an expensive vertex bag for my EDC when my first aid kit fits just as fine in a Columbia backpack, and was about to go out and buy camo before I even had put 100 rounds through my CCW. Now I just make sure all of my regular clothes are functional without looking like an undercover cop, like Tenicor's video on the "Hyper Grey-Man". When you think blending in with society just means no camo.
DULUTH Trading Co. _"Firehose Pants."_ BEST pants I've ever worn. Hides a CC in the pocket with No silhouette and survives falling down at least 3 mountains with No damage
@Jakoshdw depending on the type of tear. I've tried to get some replaced in the past and was declined due to the location of it, and being deemed "normal."
layering with wool base layers is more important in the cold than some new high speed material. Goretex is nice, but it’s quite expensive and people don’t tell you that the reason you need more socks in your pack is because you’re gonna have sweaty ass feet after a day of rucking in Goretex boots.
Look into mesh layers. Mesh layers provide greater effect for wicking moisture and trapping heat. As these mesh baselayers are used for arctic expeditions, I'm pretty confident in thier performance. Pair these with a more traditional baselayer (like the smart wool baselayer shown) you get a nice potent combo that turns the more traditional baselayer into a fantastic midlayer. "Brynje" has some solid options for those interested.
@@0mfgeeze If it's a closed weave and not a mesh weave then the sweat is still present and the moment you stop moving is the moment that the sweat that's remaining will make you cold. The beauty of a mesh system is that the sweat has somewhere else to go as your midlayer doesn't have direct skin contact with whoever is wearing it. Meaning the sweat gets off your body, and due to the pockets facilitated by the mesh the warm air is trapped between you, your mesh layer and the midlayer. If you like tights, that's fine, but it's not as good as a mesh system.
Don’t stress about comments as much. Enjoy the fact you have people commenting on your content. I fucking loved the water purification video. I didn’t comment but Got all my solutions and storage containers lined out. Very thank you guys make the information easily accessible. Same thing with the chickens and just being prepared in general. Intros are a bit much for me but every video I’ve seen I’ve enjoyed. Dude did have some bad ass pants on in the water video. Keep up the good work guys!
Sierra Trading Post is the TJ Max of outdoor stuff. Got a lot of higher end stuff there. Just got a $230 Kuhl Kollusion jacket for $99. Seen a lot of big brands with amazing deals.
Just a tip from an old punk skater kid, Shoe Goo brand repair adhesive is hands down the best, by the time I could afford new DC's back in the day my old pair had been basically re-built with Shoe Goo from the left toe on back.
So glad you mentioned Hallow socks. Bought them to try on winter in near 0 temps and they kept my feet feeling like it was a normal day. Worked great in Louisiana too, could wear 3 days and pretty much no smell.
I work in the black top, road work department. One company that I love is Merrell. I have a 3 year old pair of the MOABs. I love them to the moon. Through years of legit 300 degree asphalt, they are still useable. Also on there website, they run deals, like I just got a pair of MOABs for 50 to 60% off. They also have tactical colors and all the jazz. Just wanted to throw my two cents in for what has worked for me. Boot wise!
That's crazy. I had a pair that fell apart after a little under a year of regular use, with a fair bit of hiking and shit. Always heard the brand is great though so maybe I was just beating tf out of em
@@operator-chan1887same. I had the vibram soles completely fall apart on a pair of merrel shoes. Faster than I've ever seen a pair of shoes fail, and I've been pissed and avoided them ever since. It's odd to hear about them being super durable. I wonder if they had a really bad batch or what the deal was.
Verusteleka have fantastic merino wool socks that have lasted me for four years now and they help with cushioning my feet. With dress shoes or boots, it’s all I wear.
They have good stuff in general, the website is worth poking around on. A lot of made in finland or EU products, not always the cheapest but usually somewhat fairly priced.
I have very good experiences with smartwool. Recently started wearing their wool blend socks and they're not only cheaper than most but probably the best socks I've used.
A few things I've learned. Socks are critical. And whatever you wear for socks works for underwear in many cases. Boots are next, and the more miles you put on a set in one go shows their worth. Everything is good within a few miles or minutes. Put several miles or hours on it and see what really works. Gloves are disposable, but necessary. I treat them like women treat shoes. I've got gloves for every job, and multiple pairs. If you don't already, get a set of leather gloves for handling gasoline. Last, invest in a neck gator or scarf. I came from the GWOT era, so that's my preference, but sometimes a gator is better to keep bulk down. Last thing. You can't really wear anything for your lips, so keep a stick of balm accessible. Wind burns really hurt, and chapped lips become a problem in a hurry. Great video.
Minnesota socks and head coverings probably most important for anything outdoors merino wool works well for me . Flannel and camo is common in the rural areas . For winter if you don’t have proper clothing you won’t live long outdoors ask someone who works outdoors like lineman or tow truck drivers ,loggers if you get wet or sweaty you can’t just stop you have to dry out or you will freeze I also carry more than one pair of boots and two gloves mechanics and over mitts winter in the upper Midwest is no joke and it’s the wind that will kill you
I've never used poshmark...until today. Never would have thought of it. I work an engineering job that's half office work and half hands-on work; it's business casual but with some give. I can't believe I just spent so little on Kuhl, Prana, Columbia, Carhart, Ariat...serious this is one of the most useful UA-cam videos I've seen in a while! I grew up in the north so I've already got some of the other stuff by default and can confirm darn tough socks hold up.
I wear Keens, actually just replaced a pair that was on Shoe Gloo life support with 6” Independence Utility Boot. The reason I go with Keens is high levels of comfort, but they also have a rubber toe that comes over the top. I do HVAC for a living and most of my day is spent kneeling in front of a furnace or air conditioner. It takes me about a month or two to wear through regular leather boots leaving a shiny toe peeking through.
Keens are great for the price! Never had any water get into them, and they’re very comfortable. Don’t remember which pair I have, but they show vey little wear for being over a year old.
If you have a dry season and a green season in your area, get a few sets of OCPs and a few sets of M81 BDUs. Both are still pretty cheap. You’re pretty much done for larping. The other clothes you should invest in is what you wear in your daily life. Blend in.
I was in Nashville a few years ago, and it was -13* for 3 days. We drove to MO to hunt some deer in the late archery season and I killed my first whitetail buck spot-n-stalk in the snow at 18*... I have one boot for hike/hunt and have two pairs - Zamberlan, non-insulated, mid height. Good ankle support, good traction, waterproof, and phenomenal comfort in multiple seasons. Thanks for the content. My Mucks are my second most used boot. And for the record, I am wearing one of the several pairs of Wrangler pants you called out. They just work. I can get 4 pairs for the cost of one set of Kuhl or quality denim.
Honestly I love the 5.11 pants- both the stretchy Jean/ tact pants. HOWEVER, the last few orders I’ve gotten they didn’t last long ( wear them super often in a kitchen ) but I called the company- they asked for pics / proof of them falling apart and they told me to keep the old pairs and sent new ones two days later. Great company!
A good set of square toe boots is THE footwear that we should always wear. For you city guys, ariat featherlight series in square toe style is the best for your money. I own a construction company, I wore my ariats for 3 years doing landscaping until the back heel stitches blew out. They are worth the money.
Love the content! Always insightful. On the topic of not washing your denim, I would love to see a video about staying clean and keeping your clothes clean in the field. Knowing how to wash your clothes and how to keep bacteria down to help stay healthy and prevent infections with injuries would be VERY helpful.
Save money: Since my size was never on the sale rack, I used to buy XL women's hard shell gear when they were on sale and my wife would buy men's small. Also, I use high end merino wool sweaters from thrift stores as my mid layers. Usually they were donated because they shrank so look in the next size up. Were talking about $200 Merino wool sweaters for $5.
I think it’s a given that Swedish M90 splinter camo is the most awesome ever, with tiger stripe coming in a close second, but…yea I wear low-profile grays and earth tones 99% of the time. My best recent purchase is 5.11 “Trail Pant,” which is a slim but stretchy pant with cargo pockets, and the “Defender-Flex Light Slim Pant,” which is the same thing but without the cargo pockets. I also have a stupid amount of camo but it’s all in my basement closet.
Muck Arctic Pro boots up in New England keeps your feet real cozy in the winter. They’re not for any technical hikes of course, but they work amazing for hunting, camping, or even just shoveling your driveway or putting trash out in the snow.
For the past 18 years or so, all I wear for pants day-to-day are BDUs. M81 for innawoods, black for work and winter, khaki for summer. Cheap, durable (as long as I don't slavsquat and blow the crotch out, or catch a belt loop on a door handle and tear it), cargo pockets for my tablet or book, and I don't have to waste time thinking about what to wear. Paired with earth tone or monotone tee shirt and overshirt (or hawaiian shirt). I think I may be a fairly boring dresser.
Nothin' wrong with that. You should check out the Tru-Spec Lightweight 24-7 Series. They're way better than standard BDUs. I've got MultiCam, black, khaki, navy and OD. Wear everyday and still going strong after 8 or 9 years now. Can't beat 'em for like $50.
Try the Darn Tough 1990's. They're great for everyday use. I have the no show for gym shoes and 1/4 crew for boots. You'd probably want a heavier weight for really cold weather. Fox River makes some really thick merino wool socks I use for really cold weather when I'm fishing here in Ohio.
@@Sophistry0001 they will because merino wool wicks away the moisture, but the 1990's might be too thick for a really hot environment. They're lightweight. You might want the ultralight. I'd try both, then just return whichever one you think will work better for you.
I have had the Walmart pants and they aren't even remotely close to the same feel as "Agonic" I bought two pair of Agonic pants and after the first week I instantly ordered 5 more they are now my primary pants they are super comfortable and tough and the added pockets are in the perfect locations💙💙💙 they are also water resistant and it doesn't wash away after a few washes, all of my Agonic pants are still water resistant after tons of washing and they haven't faded or anything, the water resistance is much better than I have seen in other pants, and in my line of work water resistance is amazing ❤
Havent watched all the way; Quick comment regarding socks: i hunt and found silk liners under your wool socks and or any other sock keep from blisters and hot spots uncomfortable spots from forming. Go as thin as you can with 2nd pair. Ive also recently re-found and tried toe socks cause i remember everyone talking smack about toe shoes when they emerged. Ive used thin merino wool toe socks while snow boarding and found i can articulate my foot motion/direction a lot more as well as hunting/hiking and helps me flex my toes or foot a bit better to the terrain which in my mind help me stay a bit quieter ... I know sound weird but i would love to know if others have tried this or thoughts. Thanks for the content guys love all yall produce!
I always shop around on outlets and end of season sales. Meaning I get my winter jackets in late winter/early spring and so on. Just have to think of it at the right time, not when it's season. I buy high end stuff and the amount of money I dropped is staggering. Turns out there's always surplus stock somewhere and now I go for that. I wear all the best stuff for a fraction of rsp. Think half or less.
Love the humour and humility! Real top notch effort to share valuable information, ideas and experience! Kudos! Edit: Completely concur. The Spiritus video series on layering is excellent.
I’m 70 and have wrangler jeans that I still wear that are older than you youngsters. Nerves heard you say if those $100 and up jeans were made in USA. Enjoy your content.
I lived in Canada for a couple of years, i have a pair of Columbia boots with the shiny thermal stuff inside. With good socks my feet have stayed warm walking around in bitter cold and wet. I have used them since moving home for hunting and for the winter months as well. Waterproof and warm wete huge for me, and i have weird shaped feet so i have to use what actually fit my feet.
Here in south Florida everything is about staying dry and cool. What you wear is heavily based on where you live. Good video here lots of info as usual.
Second time I’ve been this early without a notification and the only reason I knew it was a new video was because I was thinking “damn I haven’t seen this one yet and it’s one I would’ve clicked on” and then I checked the upload date. UA-cam’s gotta start sending out notis
Highly recommend the Wrangler outdoors pants. I've used them for the better part of a decade now between the range, hiking, and forestry work. Well worth the $22 and more, but also highly recommended buying multiple pairs right away. Was doing some tree felling and walked through a patch of white thorn and they were ripped through like butter. For casual use or "burner" pants, they're solid.
I completely rebuilt a pair of Merrill Chameleons that I took with on a 6th grade trip that I chaperoned to Philadelphia. My only other pair of shoes I brought was a cheap pair of flip flops. We walk 12k-14k steps a day on these trips. The sole came off one shoe and was partially delaminating from the other. I walked 3 miles through south Philly in flip flops to get to an Autozone to buy some E6000 glue. Glued everything back together that night and jammed them in between the wall and nightstand. Next morning they were good to go, and still are. So, get some E6000 glue. It not only repairs, but will hold long term.
Definitely a top favorite UA-cam channel. I love how you guys cover all areas of our lives as prepared citizens. From water, guns and clothing you guys are spot on. Keep on gentlemen!!
Yesterday, mud & rain pushed my jeep over a 4ft cliff into a creek, leaving me "wheels up." Egressed the window & walked 3miles in the rain for help. I learned much about "prepping." Much more than a "vlog" can "teach."
I worked for a clothing company years ago and for jeans we were told to turn them inside out and sprinkle some baking soda on it and put them in the freezer.
I wear Vans almost every day and bought a pair of Vans MTE-3 Gore-Tex boots. They are spectacular. They fit like Vans Sk-8 Hi's but are insulated, waterproof, great traction, and very comfortable. Could not recommend enough.
If you guys do this again, could you take a look at Viktos and Origin jeans for a review? I suppose the more 'tactical' market on jeans and such. Good stuff, keep it up.
As a mechanic tip for shoe glue. When you get new boots put a thin layer over all the threads on your boots. It will protect them from water, grease or anything you walk it. The stitching wont want to fray as much.
One tip for the really cold winters are rubber boots with an inner boot in wool and wool socks. As an army ranger in Sweden 200km north of the arctic circle in Kiruna, we only wore regular army boots inside the regiment fence, outside at summer and winter we had high rubber boots. The winters up there are dark (24h) and cold (-20 to -45C) and the rubber boots from Finnish Nokia was the shit, first at your feet you had a thin wool sock, then a more sturdy plastic bag (to keep the sweat/moisture not getting through to the other layers and freeze) Ouside the plastic bag you have a thicker wool sock and then the wool inner boot. Ask the Finns, Norse and Swedes how to live behind enemy lines in a really cold environment 👍🏼👍🏼 By the way, your Dirty Civilina Tee, reminds me very much of the Crystal Lake logo from Friday 13th😉 Stay Frosty 🤘🏼🇸🇪
I’ve got a 3 year old pair of wrangler expeditions. Very hard use in mining industry. They look rough but holding up. I have 4 pair. Perfect phone pocket on the leg.

Consider this perspective. “Where are these pants from,” isn’t a comment, it’s a question in the “comments” section…and many of the questions may be about gear because your educational material landed as intended and was perfectly understood? Zero questions about homesteading. Amazing content 🫡
Altra’s and Salomon’s are like a high performance sports cars. They perform great, but they don’t last as long. At least that’s how I justify to my self buying a new pair every 400 miles…

On the sandal topic, I've been running 1,000s of miles in Earth Runners. They got the best combo of function, fashion and durability that I've found in any sandal.
I've been really happy with my Smartwool socks and a zip-up that worked really well on a mountain climb with extreme temperature changes. And a Vuori base layer shirt I have is top-notch. And you didn't have a section on shorts, but 5.11 has some great options for intense yard work in the 100 degree heat.
It's funny that people in the south say you might need something warmer up north... Your body acclimates... People in Fresno where literal parkas at 50⁰ haha in Ohio we wear shorts until it gets into single digits
Haha I live in PA I quit wearing shorts a month ago. I'm not your normal Yankee but if I get wet and am stuck outside I'd be dead in 6 hours. Funny I was at a hunters safety program today, had on a base shirt, long sleeve, hoodie, wool socks and jeans and I was fuckin cold. The kids were in t shirts and basketball shorts!😅
I shiver in pants and a t shirt under 70. However, I can handle 128 degree heat working outside or in a garage. I smoke so I end up in my garage all day regardless. Sometimes I envy people who tolerate cold well, until I try to get them to go outside in the summer.
Oboz Bridger mid are exceptional hikers. Key apparel for jeans... last for freaking ever. True classic for t-shirts. Legendary Whitetails for tops...well made.
Another solid choice for selvage denim is bravestar. Made in the usa and the most inexpensive denim i have found. Solid jeans. I wear the double front denim for training and work on the range as a bomb tech and for weapons work. Amazing jeans and heavy duty!
Non tactical clothing aka just go buy anything normal people wear not "hey look at me i carry" graphic tees and converse, sports team hoodies amd hats, and nikes
I wear LAPG Atlas pants. Affordable, very comfortable, and surprisingly durable. For baselayer I use Brynje wool thermo. It's a wool fishnet baselayer. If you're going to be moving and sweating in the cold, this is the best solution I've found. It allows the sweat to evaporate so when you slow down you don't freeze because your baselayer is wet.
I am 54. I still wear Rocky S2V. My son in law showed them to me years ago. I’m on my 4th pair. If you have them you know that’s a long time for these boots. Noooot the best in cold weather though.

Same. 10/10.
the lack of comments about your content shows how well you cover it
Damn … that intro was next level 😂😂😂
Horrifying, yet UA-cam community standard compliant. Just imagine how disturbing it'd have been to watch them load a magazine 😅👍
felt like a movie trailer 😂😂
It really feels like the gun tubers should get together and make a (relatively) low budget B tier action movie.

DULUTH Trading Co. _"Firehose Pants."_ BEST pants I've ever worn.
Hides a CC in the pocket with No silhouette and survives falling down at least 3 mountains with No damage
And with their "dare to wear out" guarantee they'll replace the pants if you do rip them. Love Duluth stuff!
mountain part is the best part of this comment. Cracked me up.
@Jakoshdw depending on the type of tear. I've tried to get some replaced in the past and was declined due to the location of it, and being deemed "normal."
layering with wool base layers is more important in the cold than some new high speed material. Goretex is nice, but it’s quite expensive and people don’t tell you that the reason you need more socks in your pack is because you’re gonna have sweaty ass feet after a day of rucking in Goretex boots.
Gtx for winter anything else don’t do it
Look into mesh layers.
Mesh layers provide greater effect for wicking moisture and trapping heat.
As these mesh baselayers are used for arctic expeditions, I'm pretty confident in thier performance.
Pair these with a more traditional baselayer (like the smart wool baselayer shown) you get a nice potent combo that turns the more traditional baselayer into a fantastic midlayer.
"Brynje" has some solid options for those interested.
@@AGuy-s5vwomen are ahead of the game with wearing tights under leggings for extra warmth😈
@@0mfgeeze If it's a closed weave and not a mesh weave then the sweat is still present and the moment you stop moving is the moment that the sweat that's remaining will make you cold.
The beauty of a mesh system is that the sweat has somewhere else to go as your midlayer doesn't have direct skin contact with whoever is wearing it.
Meaning the sweat gets off your body, and due to the pockets facilitated by the mesh the warm air is trapped between you, your mesh layer and the midlayer.
If you like tights, that's fine, but it's not as good as a mesh system.
@@AGuy-s5v your overcomplicating it. Tights are made of mesh. Same difference as to what you're explaining.
Don’t stress about comments as much. Enjoy the fact you have people commenting on your content. I fucking loved the water purification video. I didn’t comment but Got all my solutions and storage containers lined out. Very thank you guys make the information easily accessible. Same thing with the chickens and just being prepared in general. Intros are a bit much for me but every video I’ve seen I’ve enjoyed. Dude did have some bad ass pants on in the water video. Keep up the good work guys!
Sierra Trading Post is the TJ Max of outdoor stuff. Got a lot of higher end stuff there. Just got a $230 Kuhl Kollusion jacket for $99. Seen a lot of big brands with amazing deals.
Thanks
Carhartt stuff like 30% off normal retail price literally every day. Gregory is always there. Mystery ranch bags show up from time to time.
Good to know, they are building one right by me. Store look’s almost finished.
@@Lester.Mlucky you, we don’t get any cool stores out here in Honolulu.
Literally owned by TJ Maxx. Sierra trading post has much better merchandise before TJX bought them out. Still an ok store
Just a tip from an old punk skater kid, Shoe Goo brand repair adhesive is hands down the best, by the time I could afford new DC's back in the day my old pair had been basically re-built with Shoe Goo from the left toe on back.
What kind of hand lotion do you fellas use? Hands to die for.

So glad you mentioned Hallow socks. Bought them to try on winter in near 0 temps and they kept my feet feeling like it was a normal day. Worked great in Louisiana too, could wear 3 days and pretty much no smell.
I work in the black top, road work department. One company that I love is Merrell. I have a 3 year old pair of the MOABs. I love them to the moon. Through years of legit 300 degree asphalt, they are still useable. Also on there website, they run deals, like I just got a pair of MOABs for 50 to 60% off. They also have tactical colors and all the jazz. Just wanted to throw my two cents in for what has worked for me. Boot wise!
That's crazy. I had a pair that fell apart after a little under a year of regular use, with a fair bit of hiking and shit. Always heard the brand is great though so maybe I was just beating tf out of em
I have an insulated / waterproof pair that have become my go to winter boot when paired with gaiters.
@@operator-chan1887same. I had the vibram soles completely fall apart on a pair of merrel shoes. Faster than I've ever seen a pair of shoes fail, and I've been pissed and avoided them ever since. It's odd to hear about them being super durable. I wonder if they had a really bad batch or what the deal was.
Verusteleka have fantastic merino wool socks that have lasted me for four years now and they help with cushioning my feet. With dress shoes or boots, it’s all I wear.
They have good stuff in general, the website is worth poking around on. A lot of made in finland or EU products, not always the cheapest but usually somewhat fairly priced.
I vouch for Varusteleka as well
I have very good experiences with smartwool. Recently started wearing their wool blend socks and they're not only cheaper than most but probably the best socks I've used.
A few things I've learned. Socks are critical. And whatever you wear for socks works for underwear in many cases. Boots are next, and the more miles you put on a set in one go shows their worth. Everything is good within a few miles or minutes. Put several miles or hours on it and see what really works. Gloves are disposable, but necessary. I treat them like women treat shoes. I've got gloves for every job, and multiple pairs. If you don't already, get a set of leather gloves for handling gasoline. Last, invest in a neck gator or scarf. I came from the GWOT era, so that's my preference, but sometimes a gator is better to keep bulk down.
Last thing. You can't really wear anything for your lips, so keep a stick of balm accessible. Wind burns really hurt, and chapped lips become a problem in a hurry.
Great video.
Josh’s passion for denim is truly hilarious. He launched into the best rant.
Minnesota socks and head coverings probably most important for anything outdoors merino wool works well for me . Flannel and camo is common in the rural areas . For winter if you don’t have proper clothing you won’t live long outdoors ask someone who works outdoors like lineman or tow truck drivers ,loggers if you get wet or sweaty you can’t just stop you have to dry out or you will freeze I also carry more than one pair of boots and two gloves mechanics and over mitts winter in the upper Midwest is no joke and it’s the wind that will kill you
It’s criminal this channel isn’t in the millions yet.. god I come for the intro alone but stay for the info 😉
The fact that Josh is a fellow denimhead makes me appreciate this channel even more.
The rainbow sandals segment SENT me. Absolute perfection.
I've never used poshmark...until today. Never would have thought of it. I work an engineering job that's half office work and half hands-on work; it's business casual but with some give. I can't believe I just spent so little on Kuhl, Prana, Columbia, Carhart, Ariat...serious this is one of the most useful UA-cam videos I've seen in a while! I grew up in the north so I've already got some of the other stuff by default and can confirm darn tough socks hold up.
I wear Keens, actually just replaced a pair that was on Shoe Gloo life support with 6” Independence Utility Boot. The reason I go with Keens is high levels of comfort, but they also have a rubber toe that comes over the top. I do HVAC for a living and most of my day is spent kneeling in front of a furnace or air conditioner. It takes me about a month or two to wear through regular leather boots leaving a shiny toe peeking through.
Keens are great for the price! Never had any water get into them, and they’re very comfortable. Don’t remember which pair I have, but they show vey little wear for being over a year old.
If you have a dry season and a green season in your area, get a few sets of OCPs and a few sets of M81 BDUs. Both are still pretty cheap. You’re pretty much done for larping. The other clothes you should invest in is what you wear in your daily life. Blend in.
I was in Nashville a few years ago, and it was -13* for 3 days. We drove to MO to hunt some deer in the late archery season and I killed my first whitetail buck spot-n-stalk in the snow at 18*... I have one boot for hike/hunt and have two pairs - Zamberlan, non-insulated, mid height. Good ankle support, good traction, waterproof, and phenomenal comfort in multiple seasons. Thanks for the content. My Mucks are my second most used boot. And for the record, I am wearing one of the several pairs of Wrangler pants you called out. They just work. I can get 4 pairs for the cost of one set of Kuhl or quality denim.
Gotta say that the homestead video is my favorite from you guys. And the water video is probably my second favorite.
Honestly I love the 5.11 pants- both the stretchy Jean/ tact pants. HOWEVER, the last few orders I’ve gotten they didn’t last long ( wear them super often in a kitchen ) but I called the company- they asked for pics / proof of them falling apart and they told me to keep the old pairs and sent new ones two days later. Great company!
Same issue with 5.11 jeans
A good set of square toe boots is THE footwear that we should always wear. For you city guys, ariat featherlight series in square toe style is the best for your money. I own a construction company, I wore my ariats for 3 years doing landscaping until the back heel stitches blew out. They are worth the money.
But my toes aren’t in the shape of a square
Love the content! Always insightful. On the topic of not washing your denim, I would love to see a video about staying clean and keeping your clothes clean in the field.
Knowing how to wash your clothes and how to keep bacteria down to help stay healthy and prevent infections with injuries would be VERY helpful.
The Alpaca socks are amazing! I am allergic to wool and these are so much softer and keep your feet really warm!
Save money: Since my size was never on the sale rack, I used to buy XL women's hard shell gear when they were on sale and my wife would buy men's small. Also, I use high end merino wool sweaters from thrift stores as my mid layers. Usually they were donated because they shrank so look in the next size up. Were talking about $200 Merino wool sweaters for $5.
I think it’s a given that Swedish M90 splinter camo is the most awesome ever, with tiger stripe coming in a close second, but…yea I wear low-profile grays and earth tones 99% of the time. My best recent purchase is 5.11 “Trail Pant,” which is a slim but stretchy pant with cargo pockets, and the “Defender-Flex Light Slim Pant,” which is the same thing but without the cargo pockets. I also have a stupid amount of camo but it’s all in my basement closet.
Timber Ghost~
Completely agree. 🇸🇪
10/10 for versatile subdued colors 👍
Camo not so much.
Muck Arctic Pro boots up in New England keeps your feet real cozy in the winter. They’re not for any technical hikes of course, but they work amazing for hunting, camping, or even just shoveling your driveway or putting trash out in the snow.
For the past 18 years or so, all I wear for pants day-to-day are BDUs. M81 for innawoods, black for work and winter, khaki for summer. Cheap, durable (as long as I don't slavsquat and blow the crotch out, or catch a belt loop on a door handle and tear it), cargo pockets for my tablet or book, and I don't have to waste time thinking about what to wear. Paired with earth tone or monotone tee shirt and overshirt (or hawaiian shirt).
I think I may be a fairly boring dresser.
Nothin' wrong with that. You should check out the Tru-Spec Lightweight 24-7 Series. They're way better than standard BDUs. I've got MultiCam, black, khaki, navy and OD. Wear everyday and still going strong after 8 or 9 years now. Can't beat 'em for like $50.
Thanks!
I'm gonna give the alpaca socks a try, I've been kicking around the idea of getting some real nice socks for a while.
Try the Darn Tough 1990's. They're great for everyday use. I have the no show for gym shoes and 1/4 crew for boots. You'd probably want a heavier weight for really cold weather. Fox River makes some really thick merino wool socks I use for really cold weather when I'm fishing here in Ohio.
@cincinnatiking8008 I work in a hot hot environment, and have to wear work boots. Hoping that some fancy socks will be an upgrade for me.
@@Sophistry0001 they will because merino wool wicks away the moisture, but the 1990's might be too thick for a really hot environment. They're lightweight. You might want the ultralight. I'd try both, then just return whichever one you think will work better for you.
I have had the Walmart pants and they aren't even remotely close to the same feel as "Agonic" I bought two pair of Agonic pants and after the first week I instantly ordered 5 more they are now my primary pants they are super comfortable and tough and the added pockets are in the perfect locations💙💙💙 they are also water resistant and it doesn't wash away after a few washes, all of my Agonic pants are still water resistant after tons of washing and they haven't faded or anything, the water resistance is much better than I have seen in other pants, and in my line of work water resistance is amazing ❤

Havent watched all the way; Quick comment regarding socks: i hunt and found silk liners under your wool socks and or any other sock keep from blisters and hot spots uncomfortable spots from forming. Go as thin as you can with 2nd pair. Ive also recently re-found and tried toe socks cause i remember everyone talking smack about toe shoes when they emerged. Ive used thin merino wool toe socks while snow boarding and found i can articulate my foot motion/direction a lot more as well as hunting/hiking and helps me flex my toes or foot a bit better to the terrain which in my mind help me stay a bit quieter ... I know sound weird but i would love to know if others have tried this or thoughts. Thanks for the content guys love all yall produce!
Since watching this I've created a poshmark account and have been finding some killer deals. Great video!
I always shop around on outlets and end of season sales. Meaning I get my winter jackets in late winter/early spring and so on. Just have to think of it at the right time, not when it's season.
I buy high end stuff and the amount of money I dropped is staggering. Turns out there's always surplus stock somewhere and now I go for that. I wear all the best stuff for a fraction of rsp. Think half or less.
Love the humour and humility! Real top notch effort to share valuable information, ideas and experience! Kudos!
Edit: Completely concur. The Spiritus video series on layering is excellent.
I’m 70 and have wrangler jeans that I still wear that are older than you youngsters. Nerves heard you say if those $100 and up jeans were made in USA. Enjoy your content.
Wrangler jeans are all I wear, and I'm a tradesmen. People over complicate it.
"a lot of experience in what doesn't work. A little experience in what does" is a freaking mantra
Genius SOB. I have every present idea for life now
I lived in Canada for a couple of years, i have a pair of Columbia boots with the shiny thermal stuff inside. With good socks my feet have stayed warm walking around in bitter cold and wet. I have used them since moving home for hunting and for the winter months as well. Waterproof and warm wete huge for me, and i have weird shaped feet so i have to use what actually fit my feet.

Second time I’ve been this early without a notification and the only reason I knew it was a new video was because I was thinking “damn I haven’t seen this one yet and it’s one I would’ve clicked on” and then I checked the upload date. UA-cam’s gotta start sending out notis
Highly recommend the Wrangler outdoors pants. I've used them for the better part of a decade now between the range, hiking, and forestry work. Well worth the $22 and more, but also highly recommended buying multiple pairs right away. Was doing some tree felling and walked through a patch of white thorn and they were ripped through like butter.
For casual use or "burner" pants, they're solid.
at 2:28 what lightbulb is that? looks so good! such a nice glow to it
I completely rebuilt a pair of Merrill Chameleons that I took with on a 6th grade trip that I chaperoned to Philadelphia. My only other pair of shoes I brought was a cheap pair of flip flops. We walk 12k-14k steps a day on these trips. The sole came off one shoe and was partially delaminating from the other. I walked 3 miles through south Philly in flip flops to get to an Autozone to buy some E6000 glue. Glued everything back together that night and jammed them in between the wall and nightstand. Next morning they were good to go, and still are. So, get some E6000 glue. It not only repairs, but will hold long term.
Definitely a top favorite UA-cam channel. I love how you guys cover all areas of our lives as prepared citizens. From water, guns and clothing you guys are spot on. Keep on gentlemen!!
Yesterday, mud & rain pushed my jeep over a 4ft cliff into a creek, leaving me "wheels up." Egressed the window & walked 3miles in the rain for help.

I worked for a clothing company years ago and for jeans we were told to turn them inside out and sprinkle some baking soda on it and put them in the freezer.
No kink shaming here, bud.
I wear Vans almost every day and bought a pair of Vans MTE-3 Gore-Tex boots. They are spectacular. They fit like Vans Sk-8 Hi's but are insulated, waterproof, great traction, and very comfortable. Could not recommend enough.
If you guys do this again, could you take a look at Viktos and Origin jeans for a review? I suppose the more 'tactical' market on jeans and such. Good stuff, keep it up.
I’m curious about the quality and fit of Viktos as well. Origin I’m quite sure is great quality however I don’t have any experience with it.

As a mechanic tip for shoe glue. When you get new boots put a thin layer over all the threads on your boots. It will protect them from water, grease or anything you walk it. The stitching wont want to fray as much.
Goodwill is also a great and extremely price effective place to buy shirts. $5 each most of the time maybe $8.
Smart wool is a great base layer. Idk if drew realized that or not. But that’s what a lot of backcountry skiers use in the mountains.
“I have recently gone back to vans”
He definitely watched Slade’s videos.
One tip for the really cold winters are rubber boots with an inner boot in wool and wool socks. As an army ranger in Sweden 200km north of the arctic circle in Kiruna, we only wore regular army boots inside the regiment fence, outside at summer and winter we had high rubber boots. The winters up there are dark (24h) and cold (-20 to -45C) and the rubber boots from Finnish Nokia was the shit, first at your feet you had a thin wool sock, then a more sturdy plastic bag (to keep the sweat/moisture not getting through to the other layers and freeze) Ouside the plastic bag you have a thicker wool sock and then the wool inner boot. Ask the Finns, Norse and Swedes how to live behind enemy lines in a really cold environment 👍🏼👍🏼 By the way, your Dirty Civilina Tee, reminds me very much of the Crystal Lake logo from Friday 13th😉 Stay Frosty 🤘🏼🇸🇪

I've been really happy with my Smartwool socks and a zip-up that worked really well on a mountain climb with extreme temperature changes. And a Vuori base layer shirt I have is top-notch. And you didn't have a section on shorts, but 5.11 has some great options for intense yard work in the 100 degree heat.
It's funny that people in the south say you might need something warmer up north... Your body acclimates... People in Fresno where literal parkas at 50⁰ haha in Ohio we wear shorts until it gets into single digits
Haha I live in PA I quit wearing shorts a month ago. I'm not your normal Yankee but if I get wet and am stuck outside I'd be dead in 6 hours. Funny I was at a hunters safety program today, had on a base shirt, long sleeve, hoodie, wool socks and jeans and I was fuckin cold. The kids were in t shirts and basketball shorts!😅
I shiver in pants and a t shirt under 70. However, I can handle 128 degree heat working outside or in a garage. I smoke so I end up in my garage all day regardless. Sometimes I envy people who tolerate cold well, until I try to get them to go outside in the summer.
You guys need to come visit Fairbanks Alaska during March. People wearing tshirts in 30 degree weather cuz that's warm after weeks of 30 below zero.
Duluth Trading Company Ballroom Jeans, Firehose Cargo Pants, and synthetic cargo pants are some of the best pants I've ever bought.
Get jeans from LAPG, very similar to the 511 pants.

I wear LAPG Atlas pants. Affordable, very comfortable, and surprisingly durable. For baselayer I use Brynje wool thermo. It's a wool fishnet baselayer. If you're going to be moving and sweating in the cold, this is the best solution I've found. It allows the sweat to evaporate so when you slow down you don't freeze because your baselayer is wet.
