LocationsEdit

• Atomic Wrangler Casino, Freeside - the guards in the casino have a set.
• Goodsprings general store, Goodsprings - it can be bought from Chet.
• Goodsprings, Sunny Smiles wears one.
• Nipton - two can be found inside one of the Nipton houses together with a dead wastelander, a laser rifle and a .357 magnum revolver. However, the interior of this house is guarded by a Mister Gutsy.
• Primm - Deputy Beagle wears leather armor.
• Leather armor can be found in a range of places, most commonly worn by mercenaries.
• The earliest point in which leather armor is obtainable in New Vegas is in the quest Ghost Town Gunfight where the player can convince Chet with a barter check to give everyone in town supplies to defend themselves.
• Tomas, the man you will meet near Nipton fighting Jacklyn wears one.
• Most of the Jackal gang members, Viper gunslingers and the Scorpions wear them.

NotesEdit

• The Pip-Boy icon for the leather armor is supposedly mirrored; the Vault Boy's left arm has the large shoulder pad, when in reality it is the right shoulder of the armor that has the shoulder pad.

Behind the scenesEdit

It being black and with just one sleeve is a reference to the outfit worn by Mad Max in Road Warrior, just like the leather jacket in Fallout and Fallout 2.
