The Leather Jacket is a classic leather jacket that covers the torso, arms and neck. It is everyday clothing that doubles as light armour.
Its strength is the balance of weather cover and protection. It blocks most wind, sheds a good share of rain and catches a fair number of bites and scratches. Its cost is a small cut to running and attack speed. It is common in leather clothing stores and turns up on clothing racks, at band practice spaces and in music schools. It comes in several looks, including black, brown and a Punk version. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The jacket keeps the body moderately warm and blocks most of the wind. It sheds about two fifths of the rain. That makes it a good choice for cool, windy or showery days.
It stops about one bite in five and two scratches in five on the torso, back and arms. It also gives the neck extra protection. A plain Jacket keeps the body a little warmer but stops only half as many bites. Hide Jackets match its weather cover but stop half as many bites and scratches. The Leather Coat gives the same defence and also covers the groin and thighs, at a bigger speed cost.
The jacket slows running by about 5 percent and attacks by about 3 percent. It takes the jacket slot, so it cannot be worn with other jackets, coats, bathrobes, boilersuits or full suits. Sweaters, shirts and T-shirts go underneath.
Tailoring
The jacket is leather, so leather patches repair holes in it, and ripping it gives leather strips.
Research Craft on the jacket 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 Jacket and teaches the recipes below.

Locations
Leather clothing stores are the best bet, with racks and shelves holding one about two times in three. Band practice rooms, band living rooms and music school dressers and lockers hold one now and then. Clothing racks in any building, clothing storage, pawn shops and department stores also carry it. Bowling alley counters, changing room lockers and survivor safehouses turn up the odd one. It is a fairly common find.
