Leather Strip Footwraps are strips of leather wound around the feet and lower legs in place of shoes. They are makeshift footwear sewn from scraps. They suit a survivor who has lost their shoes or needs warm feet in a hurry.
Their strength is that they are cheap and quick to make, need no Tailoring skill, and keep the feet fairly warm. They also catch a few bites and scratches on the feet and shins. Their cost is short life, since they wear out after a handful of hits. They are never found as loot and are sewn with the Sew Footwraps recipe. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The wraps keep the feet and shins fairly warm and block most of the wind. That makes them usable in cold weather. They stop about one bite in ten and one scratch in five on the feet and shins.
They are the toughest of the footwraps. Denim and Tarp Footwraps keep the feet just as warm and stop as many scratches, but only the leather wraps also stop bites. Rag and Burlap Footwraps are colder and weaker. Hide Boots last far longer and stop four bites in ten and most scratches, though they slow running a little.
The wraps take the shoes slot. They are comfortable and leave running speed as it is.
Tailoring
The Sew Footwraps recipe needs no skill. It takes six Leather Strips and some thread or twine. A sewing needle or an awl is used and kept. The same recipe makes Denim, Rag and Burlap Footwraps from other scraps.
The wraps are leather, so leather patches repair holes. They hold only a few points of condition and lose one about every fourth hit.
Research Craft on the wraps teaches three recipes. They are Sew Hide Boots, Weave Twine Shoes and Sew Sandals.
The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies Leather Strip Footwraps and teaches the recipes below.

Notes
