The Hide Bandeau is a simple strip top sewn from tanned hide. It is clothing worn in the T-Shirt slot and covers the upper torso. It is a crafted piece for a survivor who lives off the land.
For such a small piece it is fairly warm, and it keeps out some wind and rain. It also stops a few scratches on the chest. Its cost is that it fills the T-Shirt slot, where a full shirt would cover more of the body.
The bandeau is sewn by hand. One recipe uses a small tanned hide, and another uses Leather Strips. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The bandeau covers the upper torso. It holds in a fair amount of warmth and blocks about a third of the wind. It keeps out about a third of the rain as well. That makes it a sound base layer under a jacket in cool weather.
It stops about one scratch in ten on the chest. The Denim Bandeau stops the same share of scratches, while the hide one is much warmer. The Fawn Hide Bandeau matches the hide version in every figure.
It sits in the T-Shirt slot, so a T-shirt or another top of that kind cannot be worn with it. A shirt, a sweater or a jacket fits over it.
Tailoring
The bandeau is leather, so it repairs with leather patches. Ripping it gives Leather Strips. The Sew Hide Bandeau recipe needs scissors or a sharp knife, a needle or an awl, a small tanned hide and thread or twine. It needs Tailoring at level 1. The Sew Improvised Bandeau recipe makes one from four Leather Strips with a needle or awl and two lengths of thread or twine, at any skill level. Research Craft on the bandeau teaches Sew Sleeveless Shirt.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Hide Bandeau and teaches the recipes below.
