📋 About This Mod
NOTICE: Ashland Apparel is now completely Open Source and the category
is being pushed to the Resources section. It will not receive any more
updates and I am no longer supporting it. If you would like to continue
maintaining the mod you are welcome to do so.
An on-going WIP of all Dunmer armors from the Dragonborn DLC. Almost of the clothes have various patterns on them influenced by Indonesian, Israeli, Tibetan, and various Muslim prints. I referenced a ton of Morrowind fan art for the majority of my retextures. From time to time I will upload a standalone of the armors without the patterns as opposed to the main file with the patterns.
If you're looking for my coloring theme it's ash... literally. All of my retextures are made side by side with HQ vanilla ash, tree, rock, and building textures.
Pretty basic instruction. I prefer the "Download with Manager" utility so all of my files are setup for that.
For loose files:
1. Download Manually.
2. Open with . 7z Extraction Utility.
3. Extract to your Skyrim Directory (Steamsteamappscommonskyrim).

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 920 endorsements and 15k downloads.
- Gives Dragonborn gear a gritty, battle-worn feel that fits the harsh Solstheim environment.
- Simple retexture—no new meshes or scripts, so it's lightweight and safe.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2013—might be outdated for the latest Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition.
- If you prefer clean, shiny armor, this mod is the opposite—it's all about the grime.
For Skyrim players who want their Dragonborn gear to look like it's been through hell—dirty, worn, and realistic. Perfect for immersion-focused roleplayers. Skip if you prefer pristine, shiny armor or if you're playing on Special Edition without compatibility patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod needs a conversion or a patch to work.
- Load order doesn't matter much for textures, but place it after any mods that change the same armor meshes.
