- Bantha Leather Bandolier. The battle garb is adorned with many pouches and holsters made from bantha leather. This makes the armor ideal for carrying numerous amounts random items and extra ammunition.
- Light Weight. The Twisted battle garb lacks plates of solid metals, unlike most other armors. The armor is made from fabrics that are commonly used on the battlefield, allowing for a large degree of dexterity while in combat, and additional quickness.
- Elemental Resistances. Thanks to the tanned bantha hide, the twisted battle garb is excellent at avoiding damage from extreme heat and cold. A helpful side effect is keeping it's wearer cool and temperate while wearing.
- Melee Vulnerability. While the fabrics that make up this armor are quite lightweight, they are notoriously bad at defending against melee attacks from both vibro weapons and lightsabers.
- Slug Rounds. Again, due to the armor being made of fabrics, rather than solid plates it finds a weakness against slugs. Slugthrowers use kinetic force, making penetration of the armor an easy task. Thankfully, slug rounds are a somewhat uncommon sight.
Vizjaw was very clear in keeping his people's traditions and appearance sacred as they fromed their criminal syndicate. He felt that only a few tweeks were needed to traditional jawa clothing to make them more 'battle ready'. Using his expertise as a former bounty hunter, and a tinkerer, he and a team of jawa mechanics would begin construction of standard-issue armor for their gang's enforcers. Using armorweave, ironweave, and some bantha hide, they would make just the body armor they needed. Before long, they would managed to equip each jawa member of their organization with this new armor. Hopefully, they would appear far more fearsome than before.
