Looks like an awesome product. Dave’s giving off some major Ben Kenobi vibes😂
In the army we used to wear our Pancho's on the back of our pistol belt with blousing rubbers. Worked real well.
Dave I’m from southern Ohio along the Ohio River and shade river in meigs county and your videos have helped me a lot beside what my dad and papa have shown me about living and surviving off the land and stay safe during cold weather. Your a hero of mine for real Dave. Nothing but mad respect here for you my friend. Stay safe brother.
That hood probably seems like heaven during a ice storm .
Looks like a decent piece of kit Dave. I like that it's simple and packs down real simple.
Excellent piece of kit you really have brought me back to my childhood country boy roots - from a hiker weekend camper to bushcraft where my heart apparently has always been! Many a fort I have built and survived with the most basic of childhood kit, mid 70's to mid 80's was just perfect!
I love this !!
Practical, versatile,lightweight,
natural materials...yes !
Dave , your just like a big kid !!! It’s fun playing in the woods . Thanks for the survival entertainment .
Dave, I'm so glad you talked tentsmith's into adding a hood to the watchcoat. I had bought a watchcoat from the previous owners and wanted a hood, now I am a reinactor
and knowing it wasn't correct I still wanted a hood, after all some capotes have them. As I was ordering an oilskin tarp from the new owners of tentsmith's I asked them
if they had considered making a model with a hood. They said no,but being new owners they were looking at new concepts. So, I ordered enough extra oilskin material,
made and installed my own hood. It is crude but effective and looks like a non tailor on the frontier had done the work. It has character I guess you would say. The lined
oilskin hood they make is a dandy also. The new owners seem like good folk. Again, thanks for all you do. YMHS, campdog
I have a hunting frock that works well in wet weather. It doesn't have a hood but it has two generous collars that are draped across the back that are like a caplet, and I've pulled one up about my head and secured it with a hat. I've often wished it had inside pockets.
Love it!!!! Has a very nice nostalgic look to it.
Looks great Dave. Tentsmiths ought to make a winter anorak or smock with their awesome canvas.
Boreal Mountain Anoraks.
Thank you for all your videos dave they are awesome. 👍
Looks good and no doubt made well and would hold up but, personally, I like having either a zipper or, perhaps, one or two rows of buttons with loops on the other side to close the rain coat up. If you need that shamog for something, or what ever you use to hold the coat closed in rain, then you're not as protected from elements. And even with fasteners to close it you can still open some of them and pull it open at the top to ventilate if needed. Again, just my preference. As I said, good idea over all. Oh, one other thing, I've worn those oil cloth coats and find that if you're in really cold and windy conditions those things do not keep you warm unless you're outer wear is made for said conditions and you're using the oil cloth coat simply as rain cover or a wind block....plus, the one I had got really stiff in the cold: I was in Wyoming during a very bad winter with temps in single digits at the time and it was extremely windy at that time to boot. You didn't mention the approximate cost of that oil clothe rain coat.
I like the practicality, the ease of carrying, the colors, and the design. Subbed and liked 20 seconds in and very interested to watch your other vids. Cheers from British Columbia.
Oh Snap Dave !!! Dude it's good to see you. Been too long glad your sharing still. Thanks man, now I'll watch the Vid.
A handy piece of kit and looks awesome as well. Saved Monk Outdoors put a hood on his watch coat a few years ago.
Nate
I love simple. Simple works. Good stuff!
I would love a rain poncho made out of this material, something made to work with the swagman
I just bought me a duster it keeps the rain off of me ,l I love it!it's really long ,I'm short so it hangs almost to my ankles.i walk all over in the woods (looking for deer) and right now it's the rainy season. Love your videos Dave keep them coming .
Pretty neat Dave. that's a very useful piece of gear !
I do like the practicality of it. I'd sew on some loops and toggles to keep it closed rather than rely on a second piece like a belt. A case where knowing some Marlinspike Seamanship is a very good thing! For folks who enjoy the woods, I cannot recommend highly enough that you get a copy of the Ashley Book of Knots. This is the gold standard that every bushcrafter or homesteader should have. As much as I like the look of this rain coat, it really could benefit from some of the marlinspike seamanship shown in the Ashley Book of Knots. And, the ABOK is just full of things you can use around the camp and home, things you've never thought of. If they could use rope and pulleys to move ships in dry dock, imagine what you can do around the house!
looking great Dave, I still remember watching those damn dual survival days hard to believe it's been a damn decade
I defiantly will be buying at least one of these! I've been looking for this in Grey tho, I do like the Brown, okay okay a Black & White version for winter time also! Thanks for doing all the good work that y'all do!
Looking forward to supporting your new product. I certainly do like the idea. Thanks.
I like this and definitely see great applications for it. I think small toggles on this would make it even better and not add any real weight to it
I miss the old Long hunter series videos... thanks for years of teaching...
Awesome Coat, Dave looks like a survival wizard who's gonna give us a survival quest
Thinking along the multifunctional use, it could also be used as a ground sheet to lay on or sit on. I like that it is so simple with no toggles or buttons or snaps. Thank you so much for always thinking of making gear better!!
Back to the basics! I like that.
Dude - Hell Yeah!!
I'm always looking for "Simple yet Effective" ... This is It!!
And I love this design!!
Plus, it's OIL - not a spray.
Any spray-on water repellent just emits a horrendous odor that never goes away.
Excellent Video!! Keep 'em coming!
Simple but Valuable piece of gear. Bonus Obi-Wan vibes
Shut up and take my money! Wow, I love this. It'd be perfect for Eastern Canada late winter hunts, with mixed precipitation.
I have the jacket and the hood combination, I prefer the one I have with the separate hood, but this is also a nice versatile setup….
Very cool. This is like the missing link to the kit. Great solution. Thanks for doing.
You do some great stuff man, I appreciate it 👍
It looks like a versatile piece of kit. Would definitely be welcome on a rainy morning checking traps. Of course, we know how excellent Tentsmith's quality is. It even has a cool Obi Won Kenobi vibe 🙂 I am excited about the Campmaster coming soon!
Great job Dave.
About Time! The only reason I have never purchased a watchcoat has been the absence of a hood. I will definitely be ordering this one. Looks great.
Really enjoy your videos Dave keep'em coming bud. Hope you and your family are doing great. Stay safe and be well brother. 👊😎🤙🍻🇺🇸
DC can’t wait to see it on the site. Will be keeping an eye out.
I have the original Watch Coat and added a toggled hood last year. The coat has worked well for me. I had to wear a hat before they added the toggled hood. To have this integrated is great and more cost effective. The shemagh usage is better than carrying a rope. Thanks Dave.
It look like a very good and multifunctional piece of kit!
I'm not just pandering here that looks really awesome this would be great for construction workers as well. All the rubber and plastic and stuff break and get punctures and poke holes in them so so easy it's hard to find a lightweight material, that'll keep you dry without wearing really heavy thick rubber material normally. Even in the woods not just construction obviously this would make an amazing hunting rain gear! Very cool.
Hi Dave, really neat concept love the product!
Awesome product man all your stuff Is awesome. 👍
Looks like a great idea!
Now that piece of gear is awesome! I've been looking for something like that for a long time I certainly hope it don't cost too much. Thanks Dave I'm so glad y'all came out with this. You never did say when it was going to be available so I'll just keep an eye out for it I usually get an email from you when something you comes out anyway. Looking forward to this please don't charge too much. Stay vigilant!
He told you in the video, the price for the old model + 35 Dollaridoos. If that´s too much I don´t know, up to the guy buying I think.
I like it. I wore a duster for years...just so I'd always have something for the rain and wind, all the way thru college. I've been considering buying another, but this may replace that. My biggest issue was never having the hood as well.
It looks awesome!
Great idea. I recently picked up a Polish Lavuu for just this reason. I still need to waterproof it though.
Picked up some old infantry shelter half vibes when he unrolled that thing. I can still remember what rain sounds like on it, made me sleep like a baby. I know, I’m weird.
I was just rewatching Dual Survival
That was awesome how you caught that wild pig and alligator
Always wanted a watch coat but never bought one because it didn’t make sense for the cost without the hood. So I’m all in on this.
Can’t wait to see this. I’ll ditch my ponchos for that.
Similar to the old Army issue poncho....I continue to use.....in so many multiple ways
Not completely sure but looks like Dave's camera equipment has been upgraded! Kudos!
Definitely keeping an eye out for this one.
Love your videos Dave!
Can't wait to see 😍 what you come up with next 🐻
good to see you again david.
Thank you Dave
Greetings Dave, Reading some of comments below everyone agree is fantastic idea with recommendations of tie out I would go a little further how about a pancho with tie outs. I would love a combination of both of them. I can't wait to see the final product.
I've seen several photos of mid 1800s westerners (most notably Wild Bill Hickok) who wore a sash around their midsection, where they stuffed pistols, knives, pouches, and whatever else.
Almost like a "horseshoe " pack around your waist instead of your shoulder.
A mid 1800s "tactical" web belt.
Thank you for your tireless work in effort to improve your line up of excellent equipment and making it available to all of us
Reminds me of the older Korean or WW II surplus ponchos we used to get years ago in the Surplus stores.
This is perfect I'm definitely buying some
I need one of those in my saddle bag.
Great video, Dave!
👍👍👍.
Nice .. simplicity at it's best.
What goes around, comes around .. shades of the traditional offshore fishing crew 'oilskins'.
Dave rock' n it like kenobi!
Quick little mod...
I sewed a large BDU button inside the front about a foot below the neckline. This is the perfect size to clip a morakniv sheath to the button.
Dave continues to provide extremely useful information and ideas. Inspiring many people and probably saving lives
That is a great piece of kit for any body to use .sern Jake using his out on a hunt made great cammo too dulled him right out
That looks like decent option for the Cover element of the C's. My only concern would be the hood in the wind and how it handles it, if it keeps blowing back that'd be annoying
Swedwoods channel features a laavu (lavvu) poncho that the guy uses as a tent. He looks like a derelict or a refugee when he uses it as a shell on the move, but it's extremely versatile, with all kinds of buttons/snaps (I forget which), so he can wear it at different lengths, depending on what he needs. It's just a matter of how much of it he lets out. Eyelets all over, depending on what kind of shelter he wants to make.
"Your watchcoat has no buttons or zippers!"
"It's a feature, not a defect."
I never thought about it, but how nice and compact that stows, and how much bulkier it would be if you added a zipper or buttons.
I'm not real fond of square knots for belts, unless you make one or both ends into a bow, for the same reason you tie your shoelaces in a bow, and it's not because they always make shoelaces too long.
I'm more apt to wear the shell, and just add or subtract layers under it, rather than keeping it stowed for wet weather. A good, thick oilskin, more or less open, depending on conditions, is kind of my go-to, and about the only thing that changes is what and how much is stacked under it.
But that's got to be fairly thin oilskin in your watch coat. Easier to pack and probably pretty quiet.
Thanks Dave
Side note- looks like you got a new camera or something. Image quality and color is sharper and clearer than ever. At least, looks that way. Thanks for all you do Dave!
Seems like a snap closure would be a useful & simple addition… Of course snaps would allow use in the manner you showed as well.
I like how you tied it to your belt. That's a nice hack.
I like it. The hood has good coverage. Kinda looks like friar Tuck though, especially if you're carrying a stick. Good video, Dave!
Dave how about a fold under sleeve extension? About a 4 inch sleeve that folds inside but can be unrolled to cover hands in extreme weather. A little risky covering hands but keeping naked hands dry in cold wet weather is a must also.
Great it has got me thinking
I can see the logic behind it . Might want toggles and loops on the outside, for my use .
Love it Dave Genuis piece of kit ....that and a Spruce Well under a tree in a storm and your golden ....gonna be looking into one of these hooded versions....cheers !!,:;;, Spook
Hope you and your Pathfinder family are all keeping well
I can't wait for the new Kephart "Camp Master Edition"!!!!!
Looks good. I like it.
I might have to get one of these.
Looks great
Glad to see someone make a light oil cloth version of the blanket coat (Kapote) European adaptation derived from the native peoples before recorded time waterproof using animal skin Dave love what you do that's my theory on who invented the hoodie
Great job the military had a piece of gear . Carrier,sleeping bag M1967 that had two straps and a oblong piece of nylon fabric that wrapped around.
Lol! NIce, bushcraft robe! thats slick mister!
Awesome coat
I'd add a tie or snaps in a sailor jacket style (meaning two rows apart of buttons depending on how much it needs to cover) also I'd make sure that hood can tighten under chin. Winds are gonna blow it off or obstruct your vision. The cloth you're tieing around your waste us gonna get wet. Otherwise great jacket.
Thanks dave
I need one ASAP!
Hi from Fribourg Switzerland 🙏👍 great vidéo thank you buddy 👍👍
These things are timeless and ultra practical....
It looks exactly like a waxed canvas fisherman's raincoat from the early 1900's 👍
PS: We can't hear you when you face away from the camera...
Informative and beneficial video
Can't wait..
Very nice bro!
