📋 About This Mod
As far back as I can remember, the female version of reinforced leather armor has always had a bad case of "pointy-butt syndrome" with a side of "bent-straw legs", most noticeable when crouching. This fixes that.
This is just a mesh replacement, so texture mods should be compatible, as well as my Reinforced Leather Armor Only mod which uses .esp edits to point to the reinforced leather armor mesh, rather than replacing the normal leather armor mesh with that of reinforced leather armor.
This mod fixes the bad weight painting on the female version of Reinforced Leather Armor in Skyrim. It's a targeted bug fix for players who noticed visual clipping or deformation on female characters. With 983 endorsements and 42,105 downloads, it's a well-received fix for a specific issue.
