The armor system in Fallout 4 is unlike previous games that used a single article of clothing for an entire outfit; instead, different armor pieces for the head, torso, arms and legs can be mixed and matched to create unique combinations. Specialized armor, namely power armor, requires pieces of armor specifically for different body parts, like the left leg or right arm.

Value: How much you can expect to sell the gear for, assuming the merchant is buying your items at 100% of their value.
