Description
"You picked a bad time to get lost, friend" - Bandit tour guide

The height of fashion for bandits and ruffians throughout the holds, fur armor is now available for crafting. Recipes are available for both standard fur armor, and four tiers of higher grade outfits. There is also a cloth variant. Circlets are provided as an alternative to helmets. The armor set counts as matched for the Matching Set perk.

Multiple tiers means you can keep the same outfit appearance from hide quality all the way to dragon quality. There are other mods that allow the crafting of fur armor, but this is the only one I know of that lets you craft higher quality fur armor.

Fur Armor (Hide)
Wolf Fur Armor (Elven)
Sabre Cat Fur Armor (Scaled)
Bear Fur Armor (Glass)
Snow Bear Fur Armor (Dragonscale)
Cloth Fur Armor (Cloth)

Notes

There are Stormcloak items in the game named "fur boots" and "fur gauntlets". These are not the same armor and do not count for a matching set.

The basic fur armor is the same armor that is found in the game worn by most bandits, but it is now craftable and counts as a matching set. It ranges between hide and leather in quality. Crafting does not require a perk and uses only leather.

The four higher tier sets all require the appropriate perks and furs for crafting. Wolf Fur Armor requires wolf pelts, Sabre Cat Fur Armor requires sabre cat furs, etc. So collect your furs as you level up, you will need them for crafting and tempering. Please note that the recipes are particular about which furs you use. Wolf Fur Armor needs wolf pelts and NOT ice wolf pelts. The Snow Bear Fur Armor is dragonscale quality, but needs snow bear pelts and not dragon scales.

I highly recommend BIG: Helmetless Combat Perks! (a Better Improvements for Gameplay mod) with this.

This is so awesome. I hate how armor in fantasy games end up looking like a walking bread bin. This way I can level all the way to Dragon Armor (light) and there are variants (from fur boob tube to top and fur shawl) to choose from. Also the option to choose shoes or boots (armored).

Damn, came looking for craftable Fur Armour and this mod is exactly what i was hoping for, my ranger can level all the way up with fur armour now.

I always thought the model for the boots looked wrong somehow. Now I realize the mod uses the hide boots model instead of the actual fur boots model. Unfortunate.

One issue: having the Elven smithing perk didn't let me upgrade the Wolf Fur Armor at lower Smithing skill levels, but it did work for the Sabre Cat tier (Flawless at 57). Hopefully the next two tiers also work this way.

This mod is perfect! I love the look of the fur armor, which is a big part of why I like playing this character, but I was worried the armor wouldn't keep up with the leveling enemies. The ability to craft and upgrade leveled fur armor is exactly what I wanted, and this mod does it beautifully! Thank you!

Cloth variants should be under the misc section and leather under leather. Make sure the mod actually downloaded and is active. Check that it's checked in the mod tab of the game launcher.

I am not seeing any of the armors show up as an option when at a forge. I have no smithy perks, but I should be able to see at least the cloth variant (which is what I want for my mage).

Each tier of armor needs a perk. For example, for Wolf Fur Armor you will need Elven Smithing. If you have no smithing perks, you should at least be able to craft basid Fur Armor under the Hides section, at any forge.

where do i craft the fur armor? im not seeing it in any of the steel or hide or wherever. Do i need a higher smithing skill to craft it?
