Thanks to all you subscribers for recommending this one. You folks are the best. So how historically accurate is clothing in RDO? To answer this question I combed through American and British newspaper archives from the 1800s, as well as the 1898 Sears & Roebucks catalog, and a variety of secondary sources. One of my main sources was the book 'The Old West in Fact and Film: History Versus Hollywood', by Jeremy Agnew. I recommend it highly.

Topics include: The surprising dangers of wearing hats; Most popular hats in the Old West; Historical hat customization; Difference between Northern and Southern range hat preferences; Inaccuracies of hats in RDO; Inaccuracy of hat prices; Historical accuracy of coats; Costs of coats; Historical accuracy of shirts and pants; Costs of shirts and pants; Female clothing; History of vests; Costs of vests; History of cowboy boots; Costs of boots; History of chaps; Chap preferences by region; Bandana history; Chap prices; History of leather wrist cuffs.

Man vs History is a YouTube channel that endeavors to combine both education and entertainment, specifically related to history. While the focus of the channel will expand beyond analyzing the historical accuracy of RDO, for the time being, there's still more quality videos to come on the topic.

For the past decade I've been history professor at the college level.
