The Leather Vest is a sleeveless leather vest worn over a shirt. It covers the chest, belly and back. It is everyday clothing that keeps the body warm and adds a little protection.
Its strength is warmth. It keeps out most of the cold and wind across the torso while leaving the arms free. It also catches some bites and scratches. It takes the vest slot, so it shares space with bulletproof vests and other torso armour. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The vest keeps the torso and back very warm and blocks most of the wind. That makes it a good layer for cold weather under a jacket. It stops about one bite in ten and three scratches in ten on the torso and back.
It is one of the warmest vests. The Hunting Vest - Gray matches its warmth and wind cover but stops fewer scratches and no bites. A Foreman Vest is cooler and stops one scratch in five. A plain Waistcoat is much cooler. The Leather Vest adds bite protection on top.
It is comfortable and leaves running and fighting speed as they are. It takes the vest slot. That means it cannot be worn with a Bulletproof Vest, a Cuirass, a suit jacket, bulky jackets, a bathrobe, an apron or a full suit. A regular jacket can still go over it.
Tailoring
The vest is leather, so leather patches repair holes in it. Ripping it gives leather strips.
Notes
- A Leather Jacket over the vest makes a very warm and fairly tough combination.
- It leaves the arms free, so forearm armour fits easily alongside it.
- Ripping a worn vest gives leather strips for repairs.
