Leather armor

Made from tanned brahmin hide, the leather armour is a lightweight body armour, offering protection from firearms and melee damage.

The original Leather Armor was designed for Motorcycle Football and other dangerous contact sports. It is likely that the simple construction techniques required to produce armor of this design made it a popular choice following a nuclear disaster. It provides moderate protection, and the light construction makes it easier to dodge attacks while worn. Unfortunately, it provides little to no protection against explosions or plasma attack.

Leather Armor in Fallout 3 offers significant improvements over previous games, being comparable to the Recon suit and superior to vault police armor and the Raider armors (Badlands, Blastmaster, and Sadist )

Leather Armor is an armor in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel.



Fallout I
The Leather Armor in Fallout I is a fairly easy-to-find armor with moderate protection. Besides the benefits of having armor and the obvious reference to Mad Max, it is one of two ways to get Dogmeat to join your party. In Junktown, there is a man in the Gizmo's Casino area of town who cannot get inside his house due to Dogmeat "guarding" it. By either feeding the dog an iguana-on-a-stick or wearing the Leather Armor when you walk up to him, he will follow you.

Fallout Tactics
The Midwestern Brotherhood of Steel designed their own version of the leather armour, as a standard issue for all human members of the organization.
