Description
Game flavor: "These oddly-thin leather pants cling so tight it feels as if they're not being worn at all. The city simply slides over them, raw and electric."
At ☉ 55, the Leather Trousers are the priciest single item on Carmuna's rack — more than five times the cost of the [Brown Sweatpants](/wiki/items/brown-sweatpants). The bonus is Sensors +1.
Sensors is the Action-cluster perception skill. It pings on what's in the room, what someone is hiding on their person, what's wrong with a space before you can name what's wrong. It's also the skill that gates the [Faux Fur Coat](/wiki/items/faux-fur-coat) acquisition check — so leveling Sensors is recursively useful: better Sensors means easier coat-spotting means a stronger Intellect bundle.
Is it worth ☉ 55 specifically for +1 Sensors? Probably not, if you're playing for raw value. The [Brown Sweatpants](/wiki/items/brown-sweatpants) at ☉ 11 give you Shadowplay +1 for one-fifth the price. The Leather Trousers are a buy when Sensors specifically is your priority skill and you have the Sol to burn.
Acquisition
Buy from [Carmuna Pessoa](/wiki/characters/carmuna-pessoa) at the Bootleg Bazaar in [Quisach](/wiki/locations/quisach). ☉ 55.
