The leather jacket is the first armor used by the protagonists in both S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky.

Contents

OverviewEdit

The leather jacket does not provide sufficient protection from the Zone's harsh conditions, since it's simply a leather anorak with blue trousers tucked into hiking boots. Typically, it's also worn with a backpack with extra straps across the chest. Leather offers little protection from gunfire or claws and it's absolutely useless against radiation or anomalies .

Bandits use a slightly different outfit, to identify themselves from rookie stalkers. It's called simply bandit jacket.

AppearancesEdit

Shadow of ChernobylEdit

The player starts with this jacket in his inventory. The variant given to the player is a tan color. The suit can be bought from Sidorovich. Other Loners may be seen with white Leather Jackets, which cannot be obtained by the player. It is the worst suit in the game by far, and provides very little protection. A unique variant exists, called the Skinner Anomaly, which still isn't particularly effective.

Users Edit

The suit is worn only by Rookies and very rarely by experienced Loners.

Notable usersEdit

Tips Edit

  • You can replace this suit at the beginning of Shadow of Chernobyl for the Merc Suit (Stalker suit in the unpatched version) by doing this: Climb the ladder behind Wolf at Cordon, walk by the ledge of the house and make it to the roof, now sprint to the rooftop of the house nearest to the road, on the farthest corner there should be a hole with a crate near, you can destroy it and a suit will come out.

Alternatively, you can also take the mission from Nimble to find the Mail Jacket and simply never turn it into him, this jacket can you at least till the bar or get you to the Dark Valley where you can find a stalker suit. After you have used it up and it offers next to no protection anymore accept the mission from Nimble and give it to him.

Two special copies of the Leather Jacket (which only offer 30% Rupture protection) can be found in an attic room in the Military checkpoint in Cordon; these are actually copies of the partially removed Army Outfit.


Clear SkyEdit

It is worn by rookie Loners and rookie Clear Sky members. It can be upgraded to use a pair of night vision goggles and can be upgraded to slightly increase its protection and durability with most upgrades costing only 350 RU. If one has a thing for Leather Jackets it can sport a light kevlar vest for 1,100 RU which increases it's bulletproof stats and reduces the chance of small caliber pistol bullets from causing the player to bleed. However, it is really pointless to extensively upgrade it unless one is actually serious about using it further than the Swamps.

UpgradesEdit

Upgrades marked in green are anomaly-oriented upgrades, while those marked in red are combat-oriented upgrades. They are mutually exclusive.

TipsEdit



Call of PripyatEdit

The suit isn't available to the player in the game in the traditional sense; Instead, Degtyarev will wear it when he is not wearing another suit. It provides a very minor protection from only two anomaly types (electrical and chemical) as well as 10% damage resistance to explosions, bullet wounds and mutant attacks, and it has no artifact slots.
