— Fallout 2 In-game description

Leather armor Mk II is a piece of armor in Fallout 2.

Background[]

The following section is transcluded from Leather armor. To modify, please edit the source page.

This leather armor is based on pre-War armor designed for Motorcycle Football and other dangerous contact sports. The simple construction techniques required to produce armor of this design made it a popular choice following the Great War. 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.[1]

The principal material used to construct leather armor after the war is tanned brahmin hide,[2] making it cheap and readily available to nearly anyone.

A superior version of the motorcycle football armor design, finely crafted from tanned brahmin hide.[3]
