Old school........expensive wools and versatile cottons, until I had to crawl on my belly in a creek bed. Foot-wear was a combination of Elk hide boots, water proof inserts, wool liner, and wool socks. Historic realistic re-enactments can awaken the common man to a greater need, beyond corporate rebellion. WWII surplus sucked............thanks for informing this old man about more improved apparel.
Excellent video Bro.. I, too, prefer my synthetic warmth layers.. lighter and just as warm.. and generally dry faster. Thanks for sharing your thoughts
I have both poly pros and the underaumor cold gear both work great. I do not wear the gortex parka anymore only because I have worn mine out ( 4 years in the marines and then ten after that ) I invested in a cabelas outfitter series wool parka it has a water proof lining and seems to do me well. If its cold on those hot days I just get wet( it's refreshing)
Great info man! I like your 'no B.S.' approach here. Keep the vids coming.
