  1. Fallout 2 Official Strategies & Secrets p.64: "There are two types of Leather Armor. They're both manufactured from the boiled hides of either brahmin or Geckos, and both look the same. Leather Armor Mk. 2 is made with more care, so it gives slightly more protection."
  2. Vault Dweller's Survival Guide p.5-17: "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 will make 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 attacks."
