📋 About This Mod
I wanted this feature for a long time and thank po3 for the mod, I requested in one day on discord, and on the next, he delivered Item Equip Restrictor.
➡️This mod will block the player from wearing armor that does not fit his gender body (that is, armor/clothes mods that are made only for female or male characters and if the player tries to equip it is a totally different model or an empty model, resulting in a body that does not correspond to the original one or just an invisible body, well not anymore).
To see which armor mods are being covered, look at the requirements. In particular, for now, I'll restrict to the ones I use (Lokriin Gahrot - Additional Ornament (Armor, Clothing, and Jewelry Additions)).
The only requirements are Item Equip Restrictor and KID and its requirements.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE ALL THE ARMORS IN THE REQUIREMENTS, THERE IS NO PLUGIN WITH THIS MOD.
Because I use some of these armors distributed into the world via SPID or in Boss Chests, and sometimes it does not fit the player's gender (main image), also, these modded armors does not have both gender models available, and if the player tries to wear it, it will become invisible.

Item Equip Restrictor - Armor Gender and Race Equip Restriction for Various Mods blocks players and NPCs from equipping modded armors intended for a specific gender or race, such as beast armors. It prevents male characters from wearing female-oriented gear and vice versa. Supports a limited set of mods and relies on the Item Equip Restrictor framework. A niche bug fix for immersive roleplay.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community trust with 320 endorsements and 139k downloads.
- Fixes a real immersion-breaking issue for roleplayers who care about gender/race restrictions.
- Lightweight bug fix that doesn't overhaul gameplay, just enforces logical restrictions.
⚠️ Cons
- Only supports a limited set of mods, so it won't cover everything you have installed.
- Requires the Item Equip Restrictor framework as a dependency, adding setup overhead.
- Compatibility risk with other armor mods not on the supported list—they may bypass restrictions.
For roleplay-focused Skyrim players who want gender and race restrictions on modded armors to feel more immersive. Also for mod authors who want to enforce such restrictions in their own mods. Skip if you don't care about gender-locked gear or if you use armor mods that aren't supported.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Item Equip Restrictor framework installed and loaded before this mod.
- Check the mod's supported list to see if your armor mods are covered; if not, it won't affect them.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the installation and load order automatically.
