SPECIAL FEATURES
- Three-piece garment includes sleeveless hooded white robe, made from shell spider silk; leather three-buckle waist cincher; and leather arm gauntlets covering the hands and arms to beneath the shoulders, joined together by wide straps across the chest and back, enabled to pass through arm openings on either side.
- Unique gauntlet system is donned first, and fit snugly on each arm, an adjustable buckled strap across the chest holds these firmly in place to prevent slipping down. The thin leather still permits notable hand and finger sensitivity and friction grip has been added to the palms and fingertips.
- Gauzy white silk robe covers the entire torso and has voluminous attached hood, perfect for avoiding sunlight and heat, or rain and light wind. Stylish waist cincher keeps this short robe neatly in place. Robe has single small pocket on lower left hip.
- Designed to fit snugly and securely over arms and torso, ensure great comfort and wearability for long periods of time.
- Leather is treated against fading, abrasions, moisture, punctures, cuts, or tears, and provides average (for leather) protection to the arms and hands.
- Added friction grip ensures good gripping abilities while thin leather allows greater dexterity than normal leather gloves.
- Thin layer of cellular padding into the forearms and elbows provides some light protection against kinetic damage.
- Lightweight silk robe offers terrific shade and heat protection, breathability, and shelter from light rain and wind.
- Removable gloves on either gauntlet, in case greater dexterity is needed, or if one wishes the gauntlet sleeves pushed up a bit for comfort.
- Garment set offers little to no protection against most weapons or threats, excepting only blaster pistols and bladed weapons.
- Garment set is tailored to fit each wearer specifically and cannot be worn by others.
- Robe will only protect against heat and sunlight or keep out light rain and wind, and won’t provide much more protection than that.
- Robe does not provide any insulation or protection against cold or heavily inclement weather.
A simple, very lightweight, yet utilitarian design, ideally-suited to many Outer Rim and even Mid Rim Worlds. Wears comfortably and snugly, and does not obstruct movement or flexibility. Just a simple traveler’s set, meant to offer a modicum of protection against possible dangers, and to suit the cultures and fashions of many worlds.
