Hello all, I have been wanting to make a video going over my kit and while on Covid Quarantine this week I was finally able to do it. Have a gander!

No lol, I use either minimalist shoes or sandals, saving up for some moccasins from Canada moccasins

Well done. Eventually when I get some time I plan on making a couple videos.

Well Done!
The spear is often overlooked.
I would take the tourniquet out of that pouch, though--it takes too long to get out. Actually, it is best to carry two in case the first one doesn't fully stop the bleed. Maybe add a pressure dressing as well.

I haven’t actually gone out with that kit just yet so it’s still in the packaging, and I have a few ETDs they are just in other kits, need to place another NAR order and get some more

Nicely done! I like the decision to go with proper knee-length trousers especially.

An excellent use of quarantine time.
I really like this. It's great to see a kit that's clearly serviceable but still in progress. It can be nerve wracking showcasing your stuff to people like Iodo, Taurinor or Manveruon who have it to such a polished level and I'm really grateful you did.
We run the risk of falling into the same trap here that I often see in living history which is when new folks come in and only see the ideal of what is basically a 10 year handmade kit or a $10k sword.

Ha Ha! my kit isn't polished at all, it just gives the illusion of polished

maybe on the soft kit side it is better, but I still use modern hiking boots (mostly modern shirts as well) and for hard kit have you seen how many modern items I carry?

I like your kit! It looks like you're going to come out of the swamps and hew a bunch of Harradrim! The fact that your kit is a work in progress makes me feel better about my own. Either way, we're all having fun! Some of my favoirite shirts and trousers are "linen" yoga/hippie clothes. Cheap. If something happens, no biggie. And, I could patrol multiple times a week because i've got a few sets!
