✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 164 endorsements and 9,431 downloads
- Recently updated (November 2025), so likely compatible with current game version
- Gives early-game armor a fresh, civilian look for better immersion
⚠️ Cons
- Only replaces starter and rebel armors—doesn't touch other gear

- Check the mod's files for any optional variants or patches that might be included.
