:* [[Leather Armor]] - Generally provides the least amount of base defense. However it also has the smallest penalties to attack speed and walking speed. Leather Armor has defensive bonuses to bashing, while the equipment itself also gets extra damage from cutting.

:* [[Studded Leather Armor]] - Generally provides a moderate amount of base defense with similar penalities as leather Armor. Studded Leather Armor represents a good common ground between speed and reasonable defense though still less base defense then plate provides.<br>
