The Leather Coat is a long leather coat that reaches down past the hips. It is a strong all-round outer layer. It covers the torso, back, arms, neck, groin and thighs in a single piece.
Its strength is the mix of warmth, rain cover and protection against zombies. Its cost is weight and a cut to running and attack speed. It is fairly easy to find, especially in leather clothing stores, on clothing racks and in changing room lockers. It comes in a black look and a random-colour look with the same stats. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The coat keeps the body warm and blocks a fair amount of wind. It also sheds nearly half the rain. That makes it a strong choice for autumn and winter.
It stops about one bite in five and two scratches in five on everything it covers. It also gives the neck extra protection, cutting the danger of a neck bite. A Leather Jacket matches its bite and scratch defence and blocks more wind. The jacket stops at the waist, though, while the coat also covers the groin and thighs. A Hide Coat is just as warm but stops only half as many bites and scratches.
The coat slows running by about 7 percent and attacks by about 3 percent. It takes the long jacket slot. It clashes with jackets, vests, sweaters, hoodies, webbing, bulletproof vests and full suits. A shirt or T-shirt can still go underneath.
Tailoring
The coat is leather, so leather patches repair holes in it. Ripping it gives leather strips.
Research Craft on the coat teaches three recipes. They are Sew Hide Coat, Sew Hide Jacket and Sew Hide Hoodie.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Leather Coat and teaches the recipes below.

Clothing racks in any building, clothing storage, pawn shops and department stores carry it now and then. Survivor safehouse dressers, wardrobes and boxes hold a rare one. It is a fairly common find.
