Native work clothes vs. Nice clothes

A brief example of the things I wear when portraying my ancestors in the 18th century. Nicer clothes are worn when needed, but for the most part, a breechclout is the only necessary article of clothing. when travelling outside the town, moccasins are work, and shirts and other clothes can be worn as well.

It's so nice to see the internet being used for what it was meant to do, learning. This handsome fellow is a good teacher as well.

I love these types of videos! I'd love to learn more about Shawnee warpaint and battle regalia, along with weapons and tactics.

Ladies, take note: get you a man who can do both like my boy Talon over here.

This comment is so great 😂😂

[@drzjivago100]

Thank you so so much Talon for your dedication, knowledge and love of your people which we Swedes know absolutely NOTHING about. Our perceptions are that all native people are the same and look and act like those in the movies. American native cultures have fascinated me but diverse information is very scarce in Scandinavia. Your videos are so inspirational. Me dream is to be able to visit a people and learn about them first hand but so far all bands and tribes have been quite suspicious and unwilling to open up. I was rather surprised by that. Please make more videos! Thank you 🙏

Your channel is going to blow up. God bless man. You’re an excellent storyteller.

[@ringerproduction3523]

Neyiwa, always enjoy your videos and the great job you do explaining things.

[@tnphotobug]

Very nice video, Talon! I continue to be impressed with both the quality of your video production and the information you share. Thanks again for the history lesson! :)

Excellent video thank you

Excellent work!

[@unsophisticatedlywellread]

This was so informative! Thanks for sharing!

[@clevermcgenericname891]

Great video! I have a question about the leggings; are they worn as a wholly practical item of clothing to protect the legs, or are they more decorative? It seems like an obvious question but I see illustrations of them being worn in combination with pants and trousers, but admittedly mainly by Europeans.

[@adenmcisaac4920]

they were used to protect the legs from thorny underbrush while walking through the woods.

Just subbed 👍 + set 🔔 Please continue to share history of the American Indian Tribes.🏹🪘 Can you tell us what Indian Tribe you are related to? Thank you 😊

[@IstaOide]

He’s of the Shawnee nation

[@brandon7482]

Halito! hey man, would southeastern tribes like the Choctaw or Creeks wear something similar around the same time. Yakoke

[@mattconroy3918]

Hey Talon what other types of bows are most common with eastern woodland tribes? i’ve been into northern mains horse bows. but want to try different design, made pyramid shapes out of staves. ?

[@sluggodna]

I wonder if this is the tribe my grandmother's from?

[@reycesarcarino4653]

Where's can you buy the leggings

[@nundalatacama3613]

Curious how some native tribes consider femenine to cover the thighs. So we, pants user, are femenine to them. But for us, they look femenine with that dress like tunic and those leggins.

[@trodriguez362]

its good to see the real Americans, thank you for sharing your culture

[@jeffreymcintire8273]

Lmao.. "real Americans"... You know Thomas, "history " occurred in America the same as it did on every other continent. People everywhere go to war, the get conquered things change, etc. Etc. Well you know, the same as YOUR ancestors came to Mexico and conquered and enslaved them.

[@lusolad]

What happened to you?

[@lusolad]

No more shaved head?

[@talonsilverhorn8041]

It'll be going back in a few weeks, I just wanted to try something different. I had long hair from the time I was in elementary school to about 19, and then I cut it into a scalplock.

[@tonymaurice4157]

@@talonsilverhorn8041 Do you have any problems with Ash bows cracking on the belly? This technically shouldn't happen if the wood is seasoned and there is a good tiller, correct?

Hello Talon Silverhorn! Do you have plans on making a video of a step by step process of leggings? I am trying to find a pattern of Great Lakes/Eastern/Southeastern Woodland styles of leggings and have not had much luck. Curious as to your process of making leggings. Thanks for posting.
