How to Get Leather Strips in Project Zomboid

Oftentimes, a survival game is based on a post-apocalyptic scenario, or when the player is stranded on a deserted island or in severe weather conditions. The kind of game I would be interested in would be one where you will be a young man trying to make it in life. You will have to survive life itself. There is no doubt that this is much more challenging than any zombie apocalypse that has ever been portrayed on TV. Anyway, why play a game that I’m already playing in extreme VR, am I right? Anyway, before I continue beating up this bush, here is how to get leather strips in Project Zomboid.

How to Get Leather Strips

Getting leather strips in Project Zomboid is not an easy task. They will help you patch up clothes (you will need a needle and string) and serve as a bandage of sorts. In order to obtain leather strips, you will have to craft them, they aren’t found in the wild like other resources. In fact, leather strips are collected by recycling other objects. To do so, you will need some scissors that are commonly found in desks. Once you have some leather clothing as well as the scissors in your inventory, go ahead and open it and right-click on your item of leather clothing. Select the option Rip Clothing. Once you do, you will get some leather strips. The total amount of leather strips crafted will depend on the exact item of clothing you are ripping with the scissors. For example, ripping a jacket will grant you four leather strips.

If you wish to patch up clothes, just right-click on the desired item and click on Inspect. You will see the piece of clothing and the areas that need to be patched up due to bleeding or wear. Right-click on an area and select Add Padding. Finally, select the leather strips and you will be ready to go. I hope that learning to create leather strips will ensure your survival in Project Zomboid. Good luck!
