The Burlap Bandeau is a simple band of burlap wrapped around the chest. It is one of the improvised bandeaus a survivor can sew from scraps. It covers the upper torso as a basic top layer.
Its main strength is how cheap it is, needing only burlap, thread and a needle. It gives a little scratch cover to the chest. Its main cost is comfort, because coarse burlap is unpleasant to wear for long.
It is never found as loot. It comes from the Sew Improvised Bandeau recipe. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The Burlap Bandeau stops about one scratch in ten on the upper torso. It is fairly uncomfortable to wear.
The other improvised bandeaus make an easy comparison. The Denim Bandeau gives the same scratch cover with no comfort cost. The Rag Bandeau stops half as many scratches. The Hide Bandeau matches its scratch cover and also keeps the chest warm and blocks some wind, all without discomfort. The Garbage Bag Bandeau is warmer but stops half as many scratches.
The bandeau is worn in the T-Shirt slot. Shirts, sweaters and jackets go over it as normal.
Tailoring
The Research Craft option on the Burlap Bandeau teaches the Sew Sleeveless Shirt recipe.
