Video Transcription
when it comes to urban survival you want to avoid brightly colored clothing you want to avoid camouflage patterns on your clothing you want to avoid uncomfortable clothing you want to become the gray man hello I'm Mike and today we are going to talk about urban survival choosing the right clothing that be the gray man so stay tuned when it comes to urban survival as you can see it would be better to be dressed adequate want to have some clothing that doesn't get the attention of all the people around you don't want to wear those brightly colored stuff this is what you don't want to have that's a brightly red t-shirt that shows everybody around oh man look a guy in red that's not what you want I mean red is a signal in color like in nature as well the same thing with yellow well as you can see yellow very bright you can see it far away in the distance that's not what you want in an urban survival scenario so black or gray dark gray brownish would be a great choice for a t-shirt but hey don't be a brightly orange trousers again this is a color that you can see from far away the distance you don't want this it's not the gray man you also don't want to choose camouflage parrot clothing because it's not common in urban areas to wear camouflage padded clothing you also don't want to wear green stuff like OD green like we normally would do for bushcrafting this is not the perfect clothing when it comes to an urban survival
in urban survival it's better to choose the same clothing as all they are people have they have pair of jeans maybe maybe a gray or brown or black pullover baseball cap maybe just looking normal but clothing that's the point choosing the right clothing and there is a vert called the gray man and what this grey man is all about I'm gonna show you and tell you so guys what is all this gray man about well it is about adapting the situation and overcome it that's the point becoming a grey man means that you have the right clothing for an urban area just take a look when you are in the woods you would wear green things maybe brown things to blend in your surroundings the same thing is in urban areas you want to blend in don't want to scream hey I'm there you want to be blended in nobody takes note of you because you look like all the other guys around you trousers in this color greyish maybe a bit of khaki sand colored and a black t-shirt maybe a black baseball cap nobody will care about you and that is exactly what the grey man is the grey man is the guy who can blend in in an urban area and that's exactly what you want in urban survival scenario when it comes to clothing you want to have some clothing that is comfortable that you can run with that you can jump with that you may can climb something up without getting our man here they're not comfortable and so on you want to have clothing where you can store your most important items of your kit the knife your wallet your keys whatever all kinds of kids that you don't want to lose if you lose your backpack when it comes to the gray man it's also important to be self-sufficient in what you do with your clothing but it's also important to wear the right shoes to wear the right backpack you wear the right head don't take an orange one so the whole package should be the gray man when it comes to backpacks should not look over tactical it should not be orange in color it should not be full of camouflage I think you get the idea in an urban area take a look in your special urban area in your hometown in your city where you live where you go to work every single day take a look at the people what do they wear well mostly do wear brightly colored things but they cannot blend in all this concrete around the cars dust everything that is in a city the camera blending they cannot blend in in the city they cannot blend in in the woods and then when it comes to urban survival you want to blend in urban areas as well as in the words because you may have to leave the town and get in wooded areas for your resources for whatever and therefore you'll be clothing is good both areas urban areas as well as one lens well doesn't matter if you take trousers this grayish looking ones or a brown one or a black one it's up to you so I hope you liked this small little video about the gray man about the clothing a gray man would prefer and I hope to see you soon in another video maybe in your own video where you are the grey man the grey man
