Alright so the boots he wears are Red Wing Irish Settlers. I picked up a used vintage pair for 80$ shipped off feebay. I got a size and a half bigger then my normal size and they fit great. One thing about Daryl's are that his have eye lids going all the way up the boot so look for that as well when buying. His also have a pattern at the bottom (The Irish Settler Model Has These). Mine are pretty dry and worn out so I'll condition them one day LOL. (These Are Also Very Comfy)

Next, his belt. He wears a black belt with a sorta pattern on it at the sides of the belts (VERY Hard To See). I bought a belt VERY similar to it for 8$ shipped off feebay. His belt buckle is simple. Its a blank oval (UGLY) belt buckle. I would never wear it outside of Daryl LOL. Anyways here are the pictures to go with my rambling.

His little red rag in his back pocket he loves to carry around. If you played Survival Instinct you would know SPOILER Scout throws it to him when she finds her dad and drives off. Since its based before he meets the group I'm assuming thats who they wanted him to get it from but anyways!!! Its a simple oil rag (Red Color). It is tied in a knot at one end and put into the back pocket. I bought a lot just in case I lost one or 2. But anyways there pretty cheap and simple to find. I payed $5 for a good amount (6-7?? I Forget).

Clothing TIME. His shirt in Season 1 is a thermal with a waffle pattern. Now color wise thats on you! I tried olive green faded but is WAY to green so I went with Khaki and also a size larger then I usually wear (Size XL Rather Then My Normal Size L). I need to weather it but here it is. They come shipped with long sleeves. You just need to cut them till you can see your shoulder and your good. Make sure not to cut down too far or you'll see inside your shirt and on the show its sorta tight and loose at the same time but you cant see in LOL.

Alright the moment you guys have been waiting for! The crossbow. He uses in Season 1-3 until "Clear" the Horton HD Scout 125. This is a pretty rare crossbow now and not cheap. The original price was 150$ I saw and now they sell for MUCH more (DAMN YOU TWD LOL). I payed 400$ Shipped for mine. Now keep in mind on the show he uses the same scope and quiver you get with the "red dot package" this package is pretty much the only way you could get the Horton 125. Anyways. It would be quite hard to buy just a base of the bow with out the accerioes and buy those separate so I recommend buying the package from feebay. Now you'll have to be patient took me awhile to find "the one" haha! Mine was used but in great condition came with OG box and instructions as well as the "red dot package". Then once that is done and you get it and set it up you need the sling. Now on the show it has a leather topper on the 3 ridges of the sling (Which Are Camo). I went to basspro and found the excalibur crossbow sling. It matched perfectly! I ordered it and snapped it on. Then the fun part. Weathering!!! I used black grease makeup this is more temporary weathering if I wanted permanent I would take black spray paint and mist it over parts of the camo lightly. But I bought some grease makeup for like 8$ shipped then I used my fingers and applied it to the front camo and the sides and the stock camo. Anything camo basically needs to be toned down but not totally. You can faintly see the logos and brand and on the show. I also used the makeup for the sling. I know that sounds stupid but after watching the show and again and again I realized they tried toning it down the match the bow as well. Other then that once thats finished. Your done with the bow. BTW this is a nice accurate bow and is really nice feeling when shot.

Last but not least. The HARDEST part IMO. The pants. Don't ask me what he wears now because I don't know LOL. But his Season 1 pants are Dickies DARK grey. I bought a pair and they fit and looks exactly like his. The pockets are the same style as well and the way they sit on my Red Wings is just like his wardrobe pair. Anyways here you go (Pictures)!
