📋 About This Mod
Update: added optional mod, a black scarf (bandana) for wolf armor. Beware minor clipping.
Recommend to use this armor with my other mod: "Alternative Hairstyles for All Witcher Armors" ______________________________________________________________ This is a alternative version of the mod

http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/384/?___________________________________________________________________ I love Dragonbird's mod, best Wolven set retexture so far IMO
However I missed the chain-mail meshes on the original Wolven Armor Set.
Also, his mod does not include dark colored swords scabbard.
I decided to restore the chain-mail meshes and add a dark scabbard for the wolven swords.
Now this is something a witcher would wear without feeling ashamed.

✅ Pros
- Community favorite with nearly 3,000 endorsements
- Over 92,000 downloads prove it's a go-to for many players
- Lightweight and easy to install—just drop the files in
⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a mesh replacer, make sure you have the original Dark Wolf Armor mod installed first, or the meshes won't have anything to replace.
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, you'll need to port the mod using the Creation Kit or find a converted version—this one is from 2015.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to keep your load order clean and avoid overwriting other armor mods.
