One interesting thing I have observed about men out in public is many men wearing flip-flops or sandal type shoes. If I ever go out of my house I make sure to wear a good sturdy tennis shoes or boots or something. If I need to retreat from a dangerous situation or I get in an accident or need to change a tire or something like that I want to make sure that I have some good sensible footwear.

No soap, towel, or cleaning rag(dishes and body). I'm glad I have my much smaller bag, with all of that you didn't have(including spices, chicken and beef bullion cubes, dried vegetables and jerky). My knife, fire kit, machete and axe goes on my belt and my sleep system goes around my neck(tarps, wool blanket, monk's cloth blanket). I also have purification tablets inside the small mess kit and a small first aid kit.

We made content, and used what we had. But man in some of those early videos, it was kinda' hard to hear what you were saying if you were far away from the camera lol.
