Jeans

Jeans is an Outer legs item in The Long Dark. It adds 1°C warmth and 0°C windproofing. It weighs 0.5 kg.

Within the Outer legs slot its 1°C warmth ranks #7 of 9 entries here — on the lighter-warmth end for that layer.

At 2°C per kg its warmth-to-weight ratio ranks #44 of 100 clothing items with both values recorded — a middling ratio.

Its 2% protection is a small edge in a predator struggle, though mobility and warmth matter more in most runs.

Note the 1% mobility penalty — it slows you slightly, so a lighter inner layer can be the better trade when you are carrying a heavy load.

Crafting notes: it repairs with 1 × Cloth; 30 minutes; 30% condition and harvests into 1 × Cloth; 30 minutes.

Verdict: Overall Jeans is a 1°C Outer legs piece.
