Leather armor is a piece of armor in Fallout 3.

Characteristics

Leather armor is an enhanced, one long sleeved, black leather jacket. The female version also lacks a left sleeve, and has football shoulder pads in place of the Road Warrior style pauldrons.

It offers significant protection, being comparable to the recon armor and superior to Vault security armor and the raider armor. Effectively, it's the "poor man's" combat armor. It is a typical armor worn by mercenaries.

Variants

  • Wanderer's leather armor - A unique version of leather armor.
  • Jericho wears an unplayable version of leather armor, which cannot be taken from him or used by the player and has a different ID.

Three cut versions of leather armor can be found in the game files. They are identical to leather armor in all but name and can only be obtained via console commands. They are:

  • Commando armor
  • Defender armor
  • Road Rascal leather armor

All of those are in Fallout New Vegas as Legacy content.

Behind the scenes

It resembles the outfit worn by Mad Max in Road Warrior, an Easter egg similar to the leather jacket in previous Fallout titles.
