    Upgrade and Craft Vests in Weird West

    You need to go to a tanning rack to craft and upgrade vests. Check the needed materials to craft or upgrade a specific vest in your inventory. Once you have the requirements, the options for crafting/upgrading will automatically appear once you interact with the tanning rack.

    The materials specified can be quite specific. Be sure to check if what you need is a hide or leather from a specific animal. There are multiple ways to look for the acquire materials you need for the craft or upgrade.

    You can visit the Dagger & Bones in Grackle and other similar stores to buy animal hide and leather. Or you can skin themselves if you know how to. Once you have the materials, you simply need to approach a tanning rack and make the upgrade or craft the vest you want.

    You can buy materials from shop owners or hunt and skin animals yourself to get the materials you need to craft and upgrade vests. Keep in mind that this is separate from upgrading your weapons which requires going to the Blacksmith’s forge.
