Hampton Pants

Whether you need protection from poison gas or people making fun of your new facial tattoo, nothing helps you make a stationary getaway like the canned air in this fashionably post-apocalyptic gas mask.

A bit of the override code that sped up the unfortunate Machine program this hat came from still lends its wearer some residual benefits.





Scrapper Boots

Lupines use all four limbs when they attack; maybe these boots are their secret.
