- Every longhunter was different, but I thought I would put together an example longhunter outfit to help people get started.

It took a whole 44 seconds to mention nutmeg. 13 years later, and it's still going strong!
funny that we both watched this video and realised nutmeg within 16 hours :D
That's one intense stare
XD
During a rainy event I learned that the weave on my canvas hunting shirt was tight enough that I didn't have to hide from the rain. I wouldn't say it was waterproof as water did eventually come through the cape and shirt, but not enough to soak through the blanket shirt I had on underneath. I remained warm and dry for the weekend.
Great products!
"in nutmeg color"
Sabastian Anugraha He cooks a lot. Funny though.
After seeing you 7 years later, it's amazing to see a bit of your beginnings.
your comment is now 7 years old lol
Yes, they did wear the hats flat as the hat blank comes. As for tricorn - ahhh fashion, who can explain it. - Thanks for watching!
eheh the title is still longunter not longhunter 7 years later
Townsends hi my name is erin I live in San Diego USA California and I was wondering about it how long it going to take make a longingter
The longhunter's dead stare hahahaha
The way the hunter is staring at him while he speaks is rather disturbing. 😱
Agreed! He's hunting I reckon ... :-D
It's the cold, callous, dead-eyed stare of someone who has hunted man...😮
@@David_Rafuse lol yeah something like that 😕
Que the Banjos 😘
If some dandy popped up from behind a tree, and started pawing your stuff, you’d give him the stink-eye too...
I came accross this channel fairly recently and I immediately loved it. So now I'm binge watching this channel from the start whenever I can. Great work!
Brilliant longhunter attire! Enjoyed hearing the different pieces that comprised the finished work. Also, I thought it was delightful how the longhunter solemnly stared, as if perplexed by a cheery soldier marching up to him in the wilds and explaining his attire one bit at a time.
I just came here curious about where Townsends started. It was already well done, but it's interesting to see how far these have come.
Buck skins were the ultra woods attire, durability second to none. Jerkins made from leather, usually deer or elk. Boot length moose hide or elk moccasins to protect legs and feet made quiet foot ware. Canvas and cloth soon wore or rotted to shreds.
Just remember"nutmeg color" that covers just about everything.
Love nutmeg.
Even years ago he was obsessed with nutmeg 0:42
@LivingHistorySchool
I would suggest sending one of your buckets back so we can see your problem. Wood buckets and barrels that are used frequently can be difficult to keep in good shape as the constant soaking and drying causes them to expand and contract, breaking them apart.
I’m Scottish and I love these videos and I tend to think of all of the highlanders who had to journey to the new world because of the clearances I wonder how they would have felt being cast out of their homes and finding themselves in this strange new world with strange new creatures and different climates they were used to
That's so cool, as an American I often wonder the opposite; what kind of culture did my ancestors come from when they moved here? What must it have been like to be a part of Scottish culture then and to come across the pond and have to leave it all behind? These are the people who built this nation.
first video: *nutmeg colour*
Lmfaoo, nutmeg man for life
I have an affinity for blackpowder. Long hunters were men who went on long hunts, hence the name. Can you make a video on the history of the early longhunter? Thanks
Your outfit has some seriously nice stuff. Not to mention the videos!
could this video be the earliest mention of nutmeg on the channel?
Your products are the best thank you
I would question that overshirt being worn during the long hunter period. But...your stuff always looks great 👍
Very cool! Thank you.
Cool video. That will really help beginners.
@jastownsendandson
its the cheap metal banding that breaks, I keep the buckets soaked most of the time
Great video!
Where it all started. Surprised there aren't that many comments
haha the model is doing very well for being picked apart so well 😃
You should make a video of how to start the re enactment journey. There's a lot to learn and covering the basics would help a lot!
We have made a getting started series in the past ruclips.net/video/Cmiv0kFUMG4/видео.html
I have a hunters coat I got from Koh koh mah I wear it all the time, not that I'm a re enactor but I just like it. It has become a thing on my YT channel, if I don't have it on I'm asked where it is. I also have a blue sash, which I got at Mississinawa 1812
Jon...I know this is a little old, but how about "dressing a longhunter for winter" ...I'm in need of information for a possible winter trek but I'm having a little trouble, especially the foot wear. Thanks, keep'em comin'...
upspeak on point
@Townsends Whoops, you misspelled your title! Longhunter, not longunter.
he looks so different, wow
Exactly!
Longhunter? Because you named it "longunter"(missing the h)
even after years. Still no change xD
Well....better late than never
Cool!
I have always maintained that the best way to age garb is sweat and dirt.
The bag he is carrying as also called a “Possibles” bag ...referring to anything that you could possibly need!
didnt mention the beads
Omg so creepy best vid ever townsends
Ah, nutmeg. A favorite spice and a popular color.
does anyone have any patterns or tutorials for making something like this?
WOW!! Seven years ago!! LOL!!
what has he got around his neck? crevat? or??
I have like all of those hats lol
John is also sporting the shaggy hair cut..lol
He's looking at you like you made your son do this
Did people actually wear hat blanks back then? If so that amuses since it's seems more practical to wear the hat blank then a tricorn.
Shouldn't the sash be fingerwoven?
did your website change from years ago?
Rosrychaplet www.townsends.us/
very nice, can I get them in camo? just joking
It also depends what you fill the buckets with. I could think of a few things that would make the bucket full apart...such a chemicals and such. I know this is old comment however, buckets have to be cared for like with everything else in the 18th century. Todays Americans buy something and expect to take care of itself...thanks plastic.
The knife was made by Paul Dubro at Legacy Forge. legacyforge.net
Update: I asked Paul and he says it was probably one of his apprentices.
Can you send me a catalogue???
Uglyface Butthead you can buy one from their website
What is a “Longunter”?
It's longhunter i think. just misspelled in the title. Longhunters went on long hunts, not a hunt you'd be back the same day or two.
However, keep in mind, when you wear a tri-corn you don't have to worry about burning your hat.
Is no one gonna mention how buddy is staring at him. Like it looks like he wants to kill him lol.
Coffee stains are mandatory, lol.
a longunter????

you guys sell nice clothes, but your wooden buckets fall apart, the bands break
Or actually use your stuff and let it wear and tear naturally
