To bring more attention to this cosmetic issue that continues to plague outfit styles even to this day with new styles being introduced, I wanted to create a thread not only just mentioning the problem, but providing every single available style in the game that suffers from the unfortunate weapon placement. What's even more confusing however is it's not just isolated to specific styles, but to individual pieces of a style, such as your weapons will be on the hip appropriately when wearing the Robe, but then float several inches off wearing the Jerkin. I know ZOS has stated, when it comes to visuals, once they're released to the Live Server they won't be touched again, unless it's a gameplay impacting issue, so since this isn't affecting gameplay at all I highly doubt anything will come of this. Still, an Elder Fashion player can hope.
Of Note: Staves also suffer this problem concerning specific Shoulder styles pushing the staff off your back a couple inches.
This list consists of all Chest pieces I've found to give the player character floating weapons when they're sheathed. I've only included the styles where the floating is obvious. Some have it where you can argue the weapons are attached to the dreaded hip flaps instead, or they're clipping halfway into them. I'll update the list when I get more time to go through the Medium and Heavy pieces.
