Subscribe or you’ll get blisters on your next hike
Lol
That's the key to my success of having health feet. No blisters since I subscribed 🦶👍
Thats why I have no blisters!
So that’s why I don’t have blisters
I'd rather have blisters on my next hike than have them on my... nevermind.
I clicked to hear about your layering technique but instead got mega long commercial that I've seen three others do for something that is not available to buy on their web site.
$129 for the OV pants and so on, so by now it’s better to get quality over the junk from Walmart
Oh no! He's caught the Outdoor Vitals disease!
Wrangler makes nylon hiking pants and you can get them at Wal-Mart for 22 bucks. Keeps you cool and they dry fast. Im not spending 100 bucks for pants...thank you.
Why do I feel like Ralphie from A Christmas Story upon finding out his decoder was an Ovaltine commercial? Not cool.
None of the stuff Dan reviewed is available they are still prototypes. I’ve watched OV infomercial for the pants and they are pretty cool but I would never pay that price for pants. Even if they are multi-use.
The zip off feature I agree is great. Bought some Velcro to do the same thing on my heavy base layer. Once done hiking or moving through the woods. It makes them really easy to put on without removing everything.
Have heard some great things about their gear. So far under wear wise, exofficio is my go to. Most comfortable pair I have used.
Dan, I have over 1000 miles in 21 years in the military going commando. With a pack that weighs more than anything you have ever dreamed of hiking. From the desert to the jungles of Panama and Australian cungra.
Australian cungra?
I learned the hard way in Panama that you don't want to wear socks or underwear in the jungle. Perhaps if it had been wool instead of cotton... But going without is better once you adapt.
Heph333 totally agree.
Antonia Baker, I might have miss spelled it. I participated in Australia’s bicentennial military competition. The event was done in the jungle on the south coast.
Word seen them jungle tribes in South America bare footers with feet that look like sweet potatoes. Wearing hardly nothing laughing at westerners with thier boots and clothes struggling.I’m thinking about minimalist sandals .maybe I’ll give commando a try .
Dan, your personality is so down to earth that it feels like you are an old friend we’ve known for a while! Stay well brother 👊🏻
Nice - I've been wanting to check these out.
I backed this crowdfunding for a very pretty penny. Glad to see another positive review... It will be another bit before I know for sure if I wasted a bunch of money.... you gave me a little more peace of mind on this. Appreciate you taking the time to check them out and putting this out there.
Was pretty happy with the arie 20 under quilt I used on wild fire assignment in the 30's at night in the rocky mountains stayed pretty warm thinking about trying some other products
This is a disappointing turn for you and the channel. I was thinking when I saw the title I'd learn something, not an advertisement for a very subjective vendor. I hope they do well but they are more hype than substance at this point. Go to any number of sites such as hammock forums and get the truth. And the pants may be decent but seriously? Fair price? I think not. I want gear, I'm not in it to jumpstart the Outdoor Vitals "Tribe" as they call themselves. Sintax did this already for them and I've never respected his point of view since and no longer follow him. Disappointing Dan.
I love thier stuff, can't wait to see what else they come out with
Nice laying system Dan! I like the looks of these pants! I gotta tell ya they are almost identical to the grey wrangler flex outdoor cargo pants i have. The material on the wranglers are a little thinner and they don't have the leg vent but it has the same zipper pocket but on both sides of the pant. They were only $24.99 so i bought 3 pairs in grey, fallen rock kaki and camo. I have been wearing them off and on for a year now and they are an awesome budget option if you are looking for a similar pair to the vitals. Stretch waist is very nice too and large belt loop in the back. I use them for work and for backpacking. The other good pants i like are tru-spec expedition pants and fjallravens pants. The zip offs are nice too! But outdoor vitals gear is well thought out! Alot of good apointments with outdoorsman in mind! I would buy them!! The leg vent and stretch materials are a plus! Still searching for the right underwear for me though..ughh..Stay safe! Hike on!
Have some outdoor vitals sleeping bags. They rock
Looks like kuiu attack pants and kuiu base layer bottoms. Pants are super comfortable but kinda hot it warmer weather. Base layer zip off bottoms are great.
Hi!
I got a question about sizing.
Been seeing alot of your videos lately, and they’re great!
When you talk about layers, down jackets and rain jackets, how do you go about sizing? I am between a medium and large in most clothes, so my logic tells me to go medium on inner and mid layers, and large in outer jacket, to make sure I have space for my inner layer(s) and my Mountain Hardwear Ghost Whisperer UL.
It of course depends on the manufacteror, as sizing does vary, of course.
How do you approach sizing on different layers?
do the pants have zippers on the bottom so you can get the pants off without taking your boots off?
Agree with the comments that this just felt like a commercial. I do own and have used two of their underquilts and top quilts which are quite nice. The company has excellent customer support. Layering for hiking--I'll just stick with whatever merino tops/underwear I have and pile on for wind and water--works for me.
Hello Dan, the outdoor answer man. Thank you for sharing this very informative video. Great products from Outdoor Vitald. All the best to you and your family. Stay healthy.
🤗
good video g by chance what music 🎶 is this that your playing in the background I caught my self spitting a verse to it while listening to your video
Thanks. Great video. Great attitude!
Military goes commando all the time. Not trying to make a joke.
For sure on good under layers. I’d like to check these out.
I always wear lightweight, sweat wicking/antibacterial sports clothing when I'm hiking. I generally have boxers, but I've thought about trying long underwear. I like the zip pants. Reminds me of the snaps I had as a kid during basketball. I do have a couple pair of thin rip-stop cargo pants that are zip offs at the knee. I love those. Anyway, great video Dan!
A couple of brans make long underwear that have zippers down the side, so you can drop your pants, and zip off your long underwear without removing your shoes and pants altogether.
3:48 I literally sent the tea back to the cup 😂
Dan, I like your videos, the humor, and the learning. I also understand the need to support your corporate sponsors, but $200-300 pants? Seriously? Wrangler Outdoor Pants at Walmart = $22. Built like iron, great fit, moisture wicking, and fast drying. Sitting in a room with $25,000 worth of camping gear does not impress me. Watching backpackers carrying over $3000 or more in gear into the woods leaves 99% of backpackers out of the loop. There's a difference between "getting what you pay for" and "paying for what you get". Its getting so when I see a "gear review" video in my subscription list, I just hide them and move on. Sorry, just my opinion.
I have 3 pairs of the Wranglers....cant bust em...they hold up well and feel great. No way I'm spending 100 bucks on pants. Would rather save my cash for a LiteAf pack.
I love those! The cargo pants. They're my go-to for hot weather work pants. Very breathable & slightly stretchy. Plus a boatload of pockets. And so affordable that if you ruin them, you just replace them.
The best tips, are in the comments. Thanks.
I prefer quality products
Ex Officio u/w is what i have used for a couple years now and they work great.And your correct they gotta be long...
Being a VERY big man who likes the outdoors, Columbia is my jam, Fjallraven as well is good. For layering, merino in xxxxxxxxxxxl is pretty rare
I have put a few hundred miles on all of this gear but the underwear. The dragon wool is outstanding. The hoodie is my go-to cold weather base layer. I love being able to drop my pants to add or remove my thermals. If I need them I'm probably standing in snow and do not want to take my boots off until it's time to sleep. The satu pants have an athletic fit. The fabric stretches we need it to. They're really comfortable and very durable. I'm not the biggest fan of the athletic fit but these work. They resist water and do good in the snow. They would do a lot better in the snow with a bigger cuff that goes over a mid boot. Sad to see they are discontinuing the zipoff thermals. You can get a good deal right now. Hopefully they're putting out upgraded versions. The material is awesome
Please buy some pro merino shirts and attack pants from kuiu to compare. I do like OV but the new clothing is basically the same toray fabric that kuiu uses and those pants are almost identical to the attack pants that came out in 2011.
Outdoor Vitals does not compare to Arc’teryx.Check them out.There is nothing better.Layering correctly is done easily with this gear.
Bless you Dan Becker... You really care about your TH-cam family 😂 thanks for not modeling the new underwater 😂🤣😂
Dan, I’ll buy into this. I’m always willing to support organization that provide better quality gear for hikers.
Im just glad there wasn’t a runway set up for modeling.
Just love the benefit of the new technologies at work for the best!
They all look like a great investment!!!
Thanks 🙏
I went to the outdoor vitals website, typed in Satu men’s pants. It said no results found. So what’s up?
How much do those item’s Weigh?
Since this was OV layering I was certain the Ventus would be in the vid. Not a fan or ?
excellent video Dan..
Is this still he same brand/system your recommend in 2021! Going on my first trip in May and have been completely consumed by your vids. I too am a gear head and appreciate your vids!!! Thank you!
links for the gear are broken
We all know cotton is horrible as a base layer. What about 100% Bamboo (or 95% Bamboo, 5% spandex)? Is it closer to cotton in being a bad base layer or closer to something like wool or alpaca?
I’ve only ever had one item from Outdoor Vitals and it failed on the first outing.
Can we talk about chaffing? I see lots of sticks and balm but no powder? I’ve lived in the kitchen for my job and it’s really hot. There’s lots of sweating. We always had a box of corn starch in the bathroom to avoid chaffing. Anyone out on the trail powdering up?
Outdoor vitals is just overpriced Chinese stuff there are better options
Smart wool or exxoficio for the underwear. I like my Outdoor Vitals top quilt and pillow, this felt too commercially Dan.
I don't see any underwear on the outdoor vitals website
I don’t see the underwear on the website
You da man, Dan!
Thanks Dan could you wear the hoodie around camp on a cool evening for some warmth? Have a great weekend. God Bless
For sure. It’s lightweight but with the merino wool on the inside it definitely will provide a small level of warmth. I would still bring a puffy jacket however.
Dan Becker thanks Dan I keep trying to find lighter options without breaking the bank. One option might be to drop a bunch of weight and get under XXL’s.
chicken! own it - Good to see the hat back
merino wool thermals and socks , under armour underwear , down jacket and gortex shell .
No one makes Dan Becker laugh more than Dan Becker.
I'm interested in those boxer brief underwear but i do not find it on their website.
Thanks for the info-mercial.
Highly informative for products Outdoor Vitals does not offer on their site.
Stay in your lane.
Can't wait to try the pants! Good look through of that layering system.
Would love to get the pants, but am skeptical of what I’ve found going to the sites you have given us. Please clear up.
Maybe I can help you out Perry - Dan isn’t trying to pull the wool over our eyes. He has been honest to this point, no reason to not trust him on this one.
Outdoor Vitals is selling these pants and baselayers on Kickstarter. This is a website that allows crowdfunding (a group of regular people to invest in getting the product to market through purchases). Once the product is funded, the company places the order for the manufacturer to make the product.
Why do this? It allows a company to not take on debt when putting out a new product. If nobody wants the product, the company will not put themselves in a financially risky position and the consumers get their money back.
If people do want the product, the incentive to put money into the crowdfunding campaign is typically early receiving of said product and a discount.
I’m happy to explain anything in more detail.
One update to my comment above - the Kickstarter has been fully funded, so Outdoor a Vitals has moved to a different crowdsourcing platform - Indiegogo - for a second round of finding. This is similar to the jackets you can now find in their site.
No need to be wary, as they have done this in the past and now have the previous product (jacket) available on their site for purchase.
John C , thank you for explaining it. Question is if I sign up for this, is it one size fits all or will they contact us about the size we require?
Perry Kerr They will ask you about your size once they are starting production.
Another thing to keep in mind - this is a very long process. I don’t know the typical timetable for Kickstarters, but their current one ended funding a week ago and the first shipment is projected for late October/early November. So it’s very much something to keep in mind and not a timetable that works for everyone. I personally don’t like to wait that long, but once they’re available for immediate purchase, I will be purchasing mine.
I’m not trying to push you in one direction or another, I’m more so trying to point out that Dan isn’t sacrificing the trust he has built by showing us these products.
This guy is the olen Rodgers of backpacking
Is that good or bad lol?
So disappointed.. keep trying to get into your channel. Now I get another commercial. And for a product that's still on Kickstarter. So I have to front cash for a product to buy through your link... yea, nah.
Note about the chafing and commando, Dan: You might want to put a little disclaimer on your advice that you're talking to men. For women it can be a different experience.
Ex-officio undies and Smartwool base layers are my go-to. Bought into the OV Kickstarter synthetic down jacket - worst jacket ever! Wore it twice and donated it to charity. It didn't breathe at all. Even with pit zips wide open in 50-degree weather, the jacket was soaking wet on the inside. Very disappointing.
👍
Where's the layering part of the video? This is an infomercial...
and if you act now for extra shipping we will include for free ... Dan when did your vids turn in to a info commercial ..
Dan Becker, great video. Fjallraven is my choice for layering. Phenomenal outdoor wear & gear. Buy once, cry once, happy for a lifetime...Fjallraven, lol!!
“And some of us just love the gear” I felt so seen 😂 don’t get me wrong, I love the views, but there’s an intense satisfaction in a well stocked and organized gear closet
Preach! 😂
Does Dan actually hike or camp? Best of this or worst of this...should have bought sooner or should had thrown away sooner...
Really? I have SEVERAL trip videos on this channel. Also, not sure you’ve been paying attention but there has been this pandemic happening to planet earth since March.
Outdoor vitals sells cheep Chinese junk. You can buy the same stuff from Dhgate.com for cheeper. I personally will never buy from there company again.
You need good stuff for your junk.
We're you pissed when you did this vid? Lol
I'm going in with Sheath Underwear
Ok Dan, went to the link, there is no size selection just a payment option that is not guarantied. What are you selling us?
It’s a crowdfunding website That outdoor vitals is using to help fund this new product they are offering. Just like Kickstarter. I believe sizes will be chosen once the pants ship in October. Pricing on the website is early bird pricing.
Dan Becker thanks Dan, I’m game. We’ll see how it goes
Whenever I check the Outdoor Vitals website there is always plenty of stuff labeled "mens", but nothing for women. I refuse to give them any more of my money. Nice pillow though.
Are they made in China? Or Vietnam or Mexico? I'm out if so.
They are made in Vietnam. Not trying to start an argument, but what’s the reasoning behind not wanting to buy something sourced in Vietnam or Mexico?
Dan,
I love your videos, but for the love of God go put on your regular hat. The mountain hard wear hat looks ginormous on your head. Keep up the great work!
WE ALL LOVE GEAR!!! THANK YOU MASTER DAN!!!
I bought their inflatable pillow and I do like it; I even bought on for my son. I still put mine in a bag just to keep the oils off of it.
The saying "buy once cry once" definitely applies to these products. I don't have any of these, since they're prototypes and unavailable to the rest of us. It looks like they should be in stock by now since you've had the items since 11/2019. If they're made in China, I can understand why it would be delayed.
I avoid zippered pockets if I plan to sleep in the pants. Especially since I started using a quilt. Zippers can rub and snag against your sleeping pad.
Dude, do they have stuff for chicks?
Sure do!
so Cotton is the outdoors enemy......to wear.
That underwear segment...🤣
Outdoor garbage must be paying pretty good to ol' Dan to lie about their crap. Please put that money into some better gear to stop ripping people off!! JS.
Snag the clothes once and it unravels and anyone that has seen the OV clothes knows!
But I still love ya Dan-O!!!!!
This gear is definitely not crap and I don’t make videos that are sponsored if I believe the gear is crap. This is definitely some of their best stuff. I’ve actually owned the majority of this gear since November.
great now i gotta open my wallet, thanks a lot
🤣
Got hooked on your channel a few weeks ago and must have watched over 50 of them as I prepared for backpacking. I've loved everything! So informative and you're entertaining.
Just got done with a cold camping trip in the Utah mountains and was excited when this came out. I was hoping to learn layering techniques and maybe a few different product recommendations. This feels like a giant advertisement though and I'm disappointed and you've lost some credibility with a couple new subscribers.
Hey Brent! I appreciate the support! This is a video that was sponsored by outdoor vitals. I was pretty clear on that at the beginning. My school of thought on sponsored videos is that if a company is willing to pay me to put tons of effort into filming about a product that I fully believe in, I’m happy to do that rather than them getting free advertising and using me as a platform. Any video that’s ever been sponsored on this channel is about a product that I believe in and have fully used and tested.
THANK YOU for not modeling!
This had nothing to do with your layering system. This was a 10 minute ad for a brand. Hoot you’re More transparent in the future.
I was very clear that OV sponsored the video
Commando all the way. Unnecessary fabric that rubs and adds bulk? No thanks
Wtf... I can't buy sht
What about womans clothes??
Yes they have women’s as well
Not cool Dan. I wanted to learn, not be lured.
Yeh, sorry mate, lost me.
Damn, subscribed around 1 minute in and was unsubscribed as soon as I realized this was an ad.
Disappointing content.
One more like this and ill un subscribe, dont mean to be harsh 6ou cant just push out adverts as content mate. Well not to me anyway.
