  Kinda cool not gonna lie.<br> <br>You only have one life, just do the shit you like. There&apos;s a guy in my town who is obsessed with medieval history, dresses in that style every day, but he&apos;s charismatic. He&apos;s often working with the mayor to celebrate our history, doing medieval parades, he is proudly the &quot;medieval guy&quot;. Now he&apos;s well-liked as a central figure in our town.

  I&apos;ve been bushcrafting for a couple of years now. Always thought it&apos;d be cool to LARP as a LOTR/Elder Scrolls character while out in the woods. I feel like it would add a sense of adventure(more than what normal bushcrafting already offers). <br><br>I think I&apos;m gonna go for an Elder Scrolls theme. There are tons of websites that offer fantasy-looking leather armor, robes, gear, etc.<br><br>Thanks for the inspiration, man. Love this video.

  At first thought, this is weird. After watching, I thought this is weird but authentic and I liked the ending part. Nice !

  Haha, starting out the video with a Sindarin greeting is good style. Someone mentioned &quot;cringe and awe&quot;, it&apos;s a little unconventional but I&apos;m personally kind of eccentric and I can appreciate anyone who stays true to themselves!<br>Very interesting video, and thank you for sharing.

  For the past 2 years, I&apos;ve dressed up as a ranger for halloween and plan to do so again this year. I took your advice last year and it was one of the best costume decisions I&apos;ve ever made. Please return to YouTube, I love your videos, and would really like to see some on stealth! Thank you and have a lovely day!

  Clicked like from second 1 lol. Who can dislike these clothes ?<br>I&apos;m from Morocco, glad you did a shoutout to my country. Here men wear cloaks all the time mainly to pray at the mosque, and they are so comfy, warm in the winter and cool in the summer and you have to try wearing one to feel REALLY cool, like you&apos;re an adventurer of some sorts.<br>Didn&apos;t even know they were called Burnous in English, thanks for teaching me that. In moroccan we refer to the light-weight ones as Qamis and the thick ones are Djellabas.

  Not to be cheeky but puukko and leuku are Finnish names for them. Sami names are unna niibas (smaller) and stoura niibi. Absolutely love your hood. Came back because of it.

  Looks good. &nbsp;Just two suggestions for improvement: &nbsp;<br><br>Rework your cloak into a ruana cloak. &nbsp;Near enough all the cloaks the fellowship wore in the Peter Jackson movies are ruana cloaks, even Gandalf&apos;s large grey robes is actually a ruana. &nbsp;From what I have seen and can recall right now, only the elven cloaks were mantel cloaks.<br><br>Tighten up the seams in your jerkin. &nbsp;I know, it looks better with the large thick-corded cross-stitch, but even those should not allow large gaps to appear between the panels. &nbsp;It might help if you use actual cured tendon or rawhide threads instead of leather strips for the thread.<br><br>Keep up the good work.
