The Survival Russia Channel is about "The Reality Of Survival". I live on a Homestead in far away Russian wild nature and here are no room for "TV" Survival.
Only Reality counts here. Survival Russia promotes the philosophy of always carrying equipment and never to be parted from equipment which will affect chances of Survival.
So did the old timers and pioneers of both the East and the West.
Get Out and Train and Get it Done!

Actually this is not only Russian. It was used by my grand-grand-father during his military service in the start of 20-th century even before WW1. I learned to use it from my grand-father who was working all his life in the forests in Eastern Europe, later in Komi in Russia and also in desert in Mongolia. The idea can be found also in many traditional village foot-wears in Eastern Europe, which did not have shoes, but put a very thick leather on the walking part of the foot, and this is on top of a tussue wrapped around the leg, maybe not with cotton tissue, but with something different. I am quite sure this can be traced millenia back. It could be that similar idea can be found in North American indians. I used it also during my miltary serice when I had to walk a lot. And yes, there is nothing better than this when you have to walk long distances and time. Nothing comes even close. Any sock will damage your foot especially with crude miltary shoes, while this will be working like a charm. The secret is that the shape magically accomodates the shape of your foot and your shoes, or boots.

I never thought I would see that done again! In the late 70's I worked in a nursing home and had to learn to do this wrap since a large number of the older men still wrapped their feet with them. I have done it in the winter as well using old wool neck scarves. I would be going out to milk the cows in those cold over-boots. Now I know where the practice originated! Thanks! (shared this with my brothers. haha...It was their big old boots I was wearing!) I sure enjoy your videos! Thanks!

@williamshakespeare4013
@williamshakespeare4013 8 лет назад
Great video. This is how it was done back in the days. The good thing is that, while you would have gone through a pile of socks, you could simply adjust the position of the heel in the foot wrap, and the part that was beginning to wear out would not be in the heel area anymore. Socks are, of course, a lot more convenient to use, but I think foot wraps are far more practical when resources are scarce. I've heard the big drawback is - if you don't know how to do them right your feet will turn into two big blisters after first 10km.

Shortly after the second World War, my grandmother used to turn my Grandfather's "Fußlappen" or "Schuahfetz'n", as they where colloquially called in austria, in a vest called "Lempatschek", where two Fußlappen were sewn together along the sides and knitten sleeves were attached to form the vest.

The Finnish army stopped issuing these in the 1990's. But I belong to the generation who experienced these foot wraps. Everything you said about them is true. Also foot wraps were very cost-effective for the military: one size fits all, virtually no wear and tear, last "forever". And I didn't like fiddling with these :-)
@SurvivalRussia

Russians stopped using them in 2009/2012 or so. I have found out most Russian soldiers/ex-soldiers have a special loathing for socks :) I got curious about foot wraps because so many here use them. I thought they were a thing of the past wars. To my surprise i found out they work great. I hope all is well in Finland :)

I was wondering when they got phased out in the FDF. When I served (2/14) there was a guy in my platoon who switched out the issued socks for footwraps whenever we had a longer march and he never seemed to have any problems. He taught the wrapping to us, but I never used it until after the military because I found it easier to just throw on some socks.

A trash bag or old plastic grocery bag is what I use when it's cold and wet. Wear a pair of comfortable dress socks on your foot. Put a trash bag on top, put your boot socks on the outside and then your boots on. Your feet will stay completely dry because the outside sock will protect it from the boot ripping it, and it does a decent job of insulating your foot.

Hello again. I bought several pairs both flannel and regular cotton. I also have The smaller German foot wraps. I was able to learn how to put on both watching RU-vid. Your method is exactly the way that I learned. It works, as I have tried it and even wore pull-on boots all day with foot wraps. I like the high pull-on boots, and feel that even today in certain conditions and situations, they are the best for soldiers, especially in Northern temperate zones in Spring, Summer, Fall. In winter also with high pull-on winter boots. Great video.

There is a winter version of the foot wrap used with mukluks by the Inuit tribes in Alaska and Canada. I tried them on a winter camping trip once in Northern Minnesota. The wraps were much, much warmer than the heavy wool socks I had packed in… no idea why they are so much warmer but I’m a convert.

Outstanding video my friend! This answers some questions ive had regarding stovepipe/jackboots for years. This is a concern that is extremely practical and functional, as the modern.." outdoorsman's" real skills these days are buying crap they do not need. Here in Maine in the US, it might not be AS cold as Russia...but still gets pretty cold, and this method will come in mighty handy. Thank you! I subscribed to your channel, as you and I seem to have the same appreciation for simple, durable surplus gear, particularly the Swedish wool gear- I love their rubberized wool gaiters. Keep up the great work!

Having worn combat boots most of my adult life(retired Army Vet), in a survival situation, hygiene is important and taking care of your feet is probably a close second. Anyone who has had foot injuries, it might as well be an amputation, LOL . I buy crazy expensive wool socks(they don't have to be expensive socks BTW, wool is hands down the best boot socks though. Rotating your socks is important. I have never used foot wraps, but may try it now on my next hiking trip. Though most of my hiking may only be 6-10 KMs max LOL Side note, in the US Army we were better equipped, but I think that the Soldiers in the US were spoiled and would have never thought of wraps. I always like to see what other countries do and I always learn a lot. Lars, LOVE this channel!

Great video! Thanks for the information. I can remember seeing a demonstration on TV in the 1960s, and the Soviet demonstrator said that socks wear out, but the wraps, by changing position of the cloth, would last far longer, and like you said, the cloths could be washed out and dried, just about anywhere - they are very versatile. I have read that they were used by the soldiers of Frederick the Great, so they have been around for a long time...but I bet every European army will claim to have invented them. Good work!

Well, after learning it would take about 40 man hours to knit a pair of socks this is a very practical item before the advent of mass produced socks. I see this could be of use again should one bust their bunions through their last pair of socks should another great depression ever occur. (More like when another great depression occurs.)
@MadNumForce
@MadNumForce 8 лет назад
40 MAN hours maybe, but probably 3 to 8 experienced grandma hours depending on the yarn. :-D It's actually much easier to transform raw sheep fleece to knitted socks (it only requires carding, spinning and knitting), than to turn it into woven fabric (which requires finer carding, much finer spinning, loom setup -which takes a looong time- and actual weaving). But mass produced fabric appeared relatively early, at the beginning of the modern period. It would take a few more centuries to develop tubular knitting machines, which are much more complicated than a "semi-automatic" loom.

Thanks so much for posting. Would you please do a video on the way WWII Russians "shared a Greatcoat"? I can't find too many references to this (probably considered too mundane, too everyday, too 'everybody know how to do this, why would anyone find this interesting') on this subject. I did read somewhere, that during the Soviet-Chinese border conflict of the 60s? 70s? that several Soviet troops froze to death and all members of the Soviet military, including Generals, were ordered to sleep in the snow and cold for one night to become reacquainted with using the Greatcoat. I still find it difficult, being from the southern US, that two soldiers can use two Greatcoats and two small groundcloths to survive in zero F. weather at night. Oh, and please do a video on how the Greatcoat is rolled for carrying. I have read that it was a court martial offence for a soldier to lose his Greatcoat. Thank you, from one former soldier to another.

Ларс, ступня должна быть на весу... в воздухе, при намотке портянки... Полотно портянки растягивается разведёнными руками под подошвой, в натяг. Если нужно перемотать портянки в грязи или снегу - этот метод единственно верный... не всегда есть под рукой кусок поролона или бересты, а сбившуюся или пропотевшую портянку - нужно перемотать сразу же... чтобы не получить потёртости на ноге. Удобнее наматывать портянки сидя, но "высший пилотаж" - стоя в луже поочерёдно на одной ноге. Можно прислониться спиной к дереву, например... для устойчивости.)) И в ролике не отражено самое главное; смещая точку под ступнёй, переворачивая портянку - получаешь замену 4-6 парам носок. Последнее преимущество - удобство стирки и сушки. Привет и слава вятичам!!!

***Я знаю парня, который использовал один комплект в течение двух месяцев)))*** Ещё скажи - без стирки...))) Но был у меня случай в армейской командировке под Ярославлем-Залесским (объявили карантин по холере, притащили ребята после стрельб в Средней Азии) , когда негде было сушить портянки... и подмены не было. Так я приспособился после стирки сушить их во сне, обматывая вокруг ляжек. Не очень приятно, но - если отжать как следует - терпимо... и к утру - практически сухие. Не два месяца, но две недели в таком режиме - было. (прятное слово "байка"... но - многозначное))))

Have you tried fleece? I think that works rather well during winter. Fleece blankets are cheap, readily available, soft, warm and wicks away moisture well so it's actually quite good to make fusslappen from, at least for the winter months.

Of course the breechcloth is a great substitute for underwear, but I've never found a good substitute for stockings. Until now! That is simple yet it works. Thank you! How do you spell that? Pachunki ?
@SurvivalRussia
@SurvivalRussia 8 лет назад
It works best in jack boots but you can use it in laced boots, just don't wrap them too tight. It's spelled Portyanki or Портянки. Thank you :)

This is very practical. Did this as a kid growing up in poverty during the winter. Also plastic bread bags over the shoes while walking in snow. Didn't last long though and there were never enough bread bags. Thanks for the reminder and the proper way to apply.

I grew up in south east PA. Bucks county. It was still country and very beautiful. Lot's of farms. Mostly the farmers and family were of eastern European decent. There were a few horse farms. My big brother had a fondness for hunting and trapping. He would sell the furs and we would eat what was left if eatable. No Skunk thank you. My brother would ask me to help him so I learned how to be in the woods hunt. We always had many guns. Guns are fun. There were rules that we had to follow. My father said this only once. Don't shoot anything that you don't intend to eat. Never point a gun at anything living. Most importantly, a gun is always loaded even when you think it's empty and hanging on the wall for years. In those days we had many guns. I liked guns better then dolls. My dolls were usually made from corn husk. I only hunted for food or picked up deer road killed. My favorite rifle was a Winchester 32-40. No longer have it. Lost to time. I would like to get a Mosin nagent. I also like the 30-06. I am old now so that be a kicker. How did you grow up and where in Russia did you grow up.
