Leather Samurai Armor
Leather Samurai Armor is similar to standard leather armor in terms of resistances but weighs somewhat more. This, along with the higher skill/leather requirements involved in crafting it, means it is infrequently used (even by followers of bushido). Note that the Leather Mempo gives one less point of resist than the rest of the Leather Samurai Armor set
Base Properties
All types of armor in a given set come with the same basic resists. For example, a leather gorget provides exactly the same level of protection as a leather tunic. Armor that is exceptionally crafted will receive a bonus that is further boosted by your character's Arms Lore skill, while Runic Tools, Imbuing or Runic Re-Forging can be used to send the total resistance level far higher than reachable by crafting, and also to add additional Item Properties.
Some forms of armor are "medable", meaning they do not affect your use of the meditation skill when worn. Elven armor can only be worn elves.

Individual Properties
Leather Samurai Armor is crafted by tailors, and can be recycled using a Salvage Bag or scissors. Requires the Samurai Empire expansion.
Parts retain the color of the material from which they are made. Crafted (and not yet imbued) versions can have their durability increased, via Powder of Fortifying, to a maximum of 255 and can be dyed with Pigments of Tokuno. If crafted exceptionally by a GM+ crafter they can hold their maker's mark.
