The Sheepskin Jacket is a short, fur-lined leather jacket sewn from sheep hide. It covers the torso, the arms and the neck. It suits a survivor who wants warmth and solid protection in one piece.

Its main strength is the balance between the two. It keeps in a lot of body heat and blocks most of the wind. It also stops as many bites and scratches as a store-bought Leather Jacket. Its main cost is a small cut to running and attack speed.

The Sheepskin Jacket is always made by hand. It is sewn from furred sheep hide with the Sew Furred Hide Jacket recipe. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.

Wearing

The Sheepskin Jacket is worn in the Jacket slot. It covers the upper and lower torso, the back, the upper arms, the forearms and the neck.

It keeps in about 70 percent of body heat on those parts. It blocks most of the wind and keeps out half of the rain. That makes it a good choice for cold, windy days and autumn rain.

Against zombies it stops about one bite in five and two scratches in five on the covered parts. The Leather Jacket and the Cowhide Jacket give the same bite and scratch cover in the same slot. Both keep in far less heat, at 40 percent insulation. They also block less wind and rain. That makes the sheepskin the warmer of the three with no loss of protection.

The jacket gives the neck some extra protection. It slows running by 5 percent and attacks by 3 percent.

It cannot be worn with a bulky jacket, a long suit jacket or coat, a hooded jacket or a down jacket. Boilersuits, bathrobes, full suits and sport shoulder pads also clash with it. A vest, a sweater or a shirt can still go underneath.

Tailoring

The Sew Furred Hide Jacket recipe makes the jacket when it is fed furred sheep leather. It takes 1 Sheep Leather (Furred), 3 buttons and 4 heavy thread. The tools are scissors or a sharp knife, a Sewing Needle and an awl. All three tools are kept. The recipe needs Tailoring level 5 and must be learned first.

The jacket is leather, so leather patches repair it. Ripping it apart gives Leather Strips.

Using Research Craft on the jacket teaches six recipes. They are Sew Furred Hide Coat, Sew Furred Hide Jacket, Sew Hide Coat, Sew Hide Jacket, Sew Hide Hoodie and Sew Sheepskin Vest.

The Research Craft option in the inventory menu studies the Sheepskin Jacket and teaches the recipes below.
