It always frustrated me that there were no armor options that could cover hands or feet. I've had pawns lose fingers and toes more times than I care to recount. I'm sure you've been there.
Even with the excellent VE Armour mod having plate and marine boots and gloves, I wanted more. So I made more.
These sets of boots and gloves provide your pawns with a variety of vanilla-friendly foot and hand protection over various tiers of play. So now your pawns can fight without fear of losing their digits every battle!

[b]Additionally[/b], all spacefaring pawnkinds have been patched to spawn with boots and gloves (including the Odyssey starting scenario), so that they can explore without having their hands and feet exposed to the vacuum of space!

The vacsuit boots and gloves have been moved to the appropriate research with Vanilla Gravship Expanded - Chapter 1 loaded. You will still not be able to achieve 100% vaccum resistance with the boots and gloves, so you'll still have to be careful in space!

With Royalty loaded, the following boots and gloves are added:

[b]Is this CE compatible?[/b]
Look man, I made a nice looking infographic for you and everything. But yes, it is.
[b]This conflicts with [i](insert mod here)![/i][/b]
Let me know what it is and I'll see if I can patch it.
[b]Is this save game compatible?[/b]
Yep, but preexisting pawns won't get boots and gloves.
[b]Can I suggest a pair of boots and gloves to add?[/b]
Sure! I already have some ideas that I want to act on already, such as Bean's boots and gloves and Royalty stuff.
[b]Pawns with prosthetics can't wear boots or gloves![/b]
I know, and its terribly tragic, which is why I recommend [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2739055353]Prosthetic No Missing Body Parts[/url] or [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2056706586]Medical System Expansion 2[/url], so even your bionic pawns can bask in the glory that is wearing boots and gloves.
[b]Why do the heavier power armor boots and gloves not provide stat maluses?[/b]
Well, they have fancy futuristic mobility and precision equipment that make up for their bulkiness. Also, the game already punishes you hard enough for not using bionics, I'm not going to add on to that.

The thumbnail and basically all art assets (besides the mod/DLC icons in some of the infographics) were made by me. Yep, I learned how to draw. However, that does not mean that this was made alone.

A HUGE thanks to DetVisor for helping me out, as he provided me valuable art advice and critique when making the sprites. Without him, this mod would not have been possible. He also provided valuable advice on how to make the thumbnail and mod icon. Check out his mods [url=https://steamcommunity.com/id/detvisor/myworkshopfiles/?appid=294100]HERE[/url].

Another HUGE thanks to Elseud for helping me out, as he helped immensely with the infographics for this mod. Without him, they would not have looked nearly as good, thats for sure.

Big thanks to Oskar Potocki and the rest of the VE team for giving me the ok to use the VE logo for the infographics, as well as being cool with me retexturing and rebalancing VE Armour.
Thanks to ThatBartGuy and Sir Van for advice.
Odyssey and Royalty icons are made by Ludeon Studios.
CE icon is from the Combat Extended mod.
Check out Bean's boots and gloves mod [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3528330887]here[/url], which adds more boots and gloves that have the fortune of not overlapping with mine.
