    Ah yeah forgot about the rather large download size.
    I guess I was more interested in the higher VR appearance of them. I can wait. :)

    Daedric Jerkin still looks like a robe =(
    Seems common at the crafting station I'm at too... Jerkin works without pants, but put your pants back on and it's still a robe. Daedric is a robe with a skirt, no trousers. /cry

    Can't wait to see what pretty new pics show up on ESO fashion,yes that is a website where you can see pics of armor. Might submit a few myself. Big bow to the fighting ladies that posted here. You are a ray of hope in a dark hour. Azura's light guide you. I am enchanted by your strong sentiments . Do not let anyone force you into skirts.That is the world of men and not of Mer. Spinner weave you strong threads.

    My download started at 500kb/s last night, now it's at 30kb/s. And it's only the first part -.-
    People keep telling me they're gonna buy me an ale. They never do.

    That has nothing to do with the jerkin. The daedric "breeches" have always been a skirt. Use the daedric jerkin with any other pants and you won't be wearing a robe. Use the daedric breeches with any non-robe chest piece and you'll still be wearing a skirt.

    Light jerkins are there so the teen male population who want to play scantily-clad female Sorcs no longer have to wear Medium to do so, it serves no other useful purpose as far as I see it.
    What? How about the rest of us have our own needs and reasoning for wanting it. Like for example I'm an adult male playing a MALE character and hate wearing dresses while I'm storming a keep with my friends in T.speak like. Look out and be afraid as my clothy (built like a greek god) approaches in a very intimidating.....DRESS?!!??! There are plenty who've shared my sentiment and it has nothing to do with pre-pubes teens. I'm in a mature guild with older friends who have shared the same opinion many o'times. So "serves no purpose" may apply for you...why even post here if it doesn't benefit you? This is a "kudos" happy thread where we are expressing our gratitude for Zeni's work on this as it is one more thing to see the glass half full. I always wonder why people like you in this instance feel like you have to try and come be some subtle little negative nancy for who knows why. Again, thanks Zeni, ignore the ungrateful, celebrate the good.

    Or maybe they don't want to play a female character who is forced to wear a dress? :)
    Exactly, many different reasons, see my previous response to the trollbait. fromtesonlineb16_ESO Who upon looking at his previous comments appears to have anger issues.

    now-now!, are you trying to mold me into one of those people who should be ignored because they see pink elephants roaming in their gardens?

    I'm perfectly aware that mer like me, humble scion of the Auri-El and glorious wielder of the vast intellect, might seem to be a distant figure in the eyes of the mortals but I would appreciate more consideration when you speak of my hallowed persona. subtitute 'strange' with 'he's a riddle I wish to solve' or at least 'mesmerising' [faint blush advised].

    Lol, you crack me up.

    Anyways, I don't see how is a snobbish Altmer whom prefers robes over jerkins due to his upbringing would be a riddle.

    Lol, why are they called "jerkins"? Makes me think they were meant for faping in. I'll be wearing my jerkins with pride.

    It's what they were called throughout most of history.

    Also if it lacks long sleeves it's a tunic.

    you underestimate the mythic of the robes! name itself bears witness to many layers and folds, a tapestry of Magnus hailing palm. robes are its motion and what is between we call 'magick'.

    Finally got my Jerkin on my Altmer Sorc, I went for the Dunmer style in the end, looks good, apart from my bright blue shoes. Everything else is brown and dark blue, and my shoes look like bright blue bandages, oh dear, just have to wait for dyes to arrive.

    My point still stands. I don't even play a sorc, let alone a scantily clad one, and it certainly isn't why I wanted craftable jerkins.

    and so does the classification stand. more or less, after all you claim to be an adult (I will not accept it, never!). miss manipulator!
    but for the sake of peace, love and understanding, I will pretend; believe that reasoning behind jerkins sympathy is simply a result of a maturing fashion sense.

    I like the style, well apart from the shoes.
    And it's may Altmer Sorc wearing a Dunmer Linnen Jerkin. He's still only level 25 so not gotten to Better cloths yet.
