The Sheriff Deputy Jacket is the cotton uniform jacket of a sheriff's deputy. It covers the torso, the arms and the neck. It is a sturdy outer layer with fair warmth and solid bite protection.
Its strength is the mix of protection and warmth. It stops as many bites as a Leather Jacket and keeps the body warmer. Its main cost is speed, since it slows running more than a Leather Jacket.
The jacket is a rare find. It turns up in backstage rooms and in survivor safehouses. It belongs to the same sheriff set as the Sheriff Deputy Hat and the Sheriff Deputy Shirt. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
The Sheriff Deputy 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 more than half of body heat and blocks a little under half of the wind. It keeps out a quarter of the rain. That suits cool autumn days and mild winter weather.
Against zombies it stops about one bite in five and three scratches in ten on the covered parts. It also gives the neck some extra protection.
The Leather Jacket stops the same share of bites and more scratches, at two in five. The Leather Jacket keeps in less heat, at 40 percent against 60 for the sheriff jacket. The Police Jacket matches the sheriff jacket in every figure.
The cost is speed. The jacket cuts running speed by 7 percent and attack speed by 2 percent. A Leather Jacket slows running by only 5 percent.
It cannot be worn with a bulky jacket, a long 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 go underneath.
Tailoring
The jacket is cotton, so cotton patches repair it. The Rip Clothing recipe tears it into a Rag.

Locations
The Sheriff Deputy Jacket is a rare find. Backstage clothing racks and dressers hold one about once in a hundred searches. Dressers and wardrobes in mid and late game survivor safehouses turn one up just as rarely. Boxes and crates in those safehouses hold one even less often.
