The Fawn Hide Tank Top is a sleeveless top sewn from a small tanned fawn hide. It is worn in the Tank Top slot and covers the chest, the belly and the back. It is a handmade base layer for a survivor who hunts and works hides.
Its main strength over a cotton tank top is the leather. It keeps rain out better and gives the torso a little guard against scratches. Its main cost is the hide and the skill needed to make it.
The top is never found in the world. It comes only from the Sew Hide Tank Top recipe, which calls for Tailoring at level 3. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The tank top keeps the torso as warm as a cotton Tank Top and blocks the same amount of wind. It is a light first layer for mild weather, and it suits a cold day under a jacket.
The leather is where it pulls ahead. It sheds about a third of the rain, which helps keep the body dry. It also stops one zombie scratch in ten on the torso and back.
The Deer Hide Tank Top, the Cowhide Tank Top and the Hide Tank Top all give exactly the same warmth, rain cover and scratch guard. The choice between them comes down to which hide is at hand.
It costs nothing in speed or comfort. It takes only the Tank Top slot, so a shirt, a jacket and a vest can all go on over it.
Tailoring
The top is made of leather, so it takes leather patches when it is repaired. Ripping it gives leather strips.
Researching the top with Research Craft teaches three recipes: Sew Hide Coat, Sew Hide Jacket and Sew Sleeveless Shirt. That makes it a useful first step toward larger hide pieces.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Fawn Hide Tank Top and teaches the recipes below.

Locations
The Fawn Hide Tank Top only comes from crafting. The Sew Hide Tank Top recipe needs a small furred tanned hide and two lengths of thread or twine. It also needs scissors or a sharp knife, and a sewing needle or an awl, which are kept. It calls for Tailoring at level 3. The kind of hide used decides which tank top comes out.
Notes
- Researching the top teaches Sew Hide Coat, Sew Hide Jacket and Sew Sleeveless Shirt.
- A fawn hide makes this top, while deer and cow hides make look-alike tops with the same stats.
- It sits under a shirt and a jacket, so it adds rain cover to a full outfit.
- Ripping it gives leather strips rather than rags.
