📋 About This Mod

RUSTIC CLOTHING  is a high resolution clothing texture overhaul for Skyrim. Every piece of clothing in the game is covered. The main file is labelled RUSTIC CLOTHING - COMPLETE. This download contains all the clothing in the base game + all the DLC. The underwear is also included. One simple download for people who own all the DLC.

If you don't own all the DLC, then you can download the individual files for the content that you do have. The base game clothing is available in the RUSTIC CLOTHING - SKYRIM file. Each DLC has it's own file, and the underwear is found in the optional download section.

QZYqlb5JJ5I Many thanks to Supertin for putting this lovely showcase video together UPDATE: RUSTIC CLOTHING - COMPLETE now comprises every clothing related texture found in the main "clothing" folder.  I decided to be a completist, and redo even wearable items weren't technically clothing. That's why I retextured the bandit/fur armor, even though it really belongs in the armor textures... but that's Bethesda organization for you. I also retextured the "minor" items of the bandages and the wounds (which are found on the dead body of Susanna the Wicked in the Windhelm graveyard), even if they aren't truly clothing. With the latest update, the Masque of Clavicus Vile, the Execution Hood, and Ulfric's Gag have been added. At last, I can say that RUSTIC CLOTHING is complete.

An overhaul of this size takes quite a bit of hard drive and VRAM space, so I endeavored to make the 2K and 2K-1K options more performance friendly. Since the hands and feet are the smallest body parts, I figured that I could reduce the normal maps for the footwear and gloves without negatively affecting the appearance of the 2K option. This shaves over 18MB from the file. The 2K-1K download is further optimized, since now the diffuse textures of the gloves and footwear have also been reduced for this option. This removes almost 29MB from the file.

There are added clothing textures included for kryptopyr's Clothing and Clutter Fixes mod. You will need her mod installed to be able to use the female Ulfric outfit, and the new color variations for the Monk hoods.

ATTENTION: This mod only contains textures, NO MESHES and NO ESP. These textures have exactly the same layout as the original Bethesda textures, so they will work with any mesh replacers you may be using (as long as they work with the original textures). Also, if you have interest

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Pick the 1K or 2K version if you're on a mid-range PC—4K can tank performance in crowded cities.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and easily switch between resolution options.
  • Load order doesn't matter much for texture replacers, but place it after any mods that change clothing meshes to avoid conflicts.
