In 2075, you’d have to be crazy to consider walking outside with just a tee-shirt and jeans, even in some of the nicer parts of the Sprawl. You need protection: from the acid rain, from air pollution, from ultraviolet radiation from the completely fragged ozone layer, and of course, from random street violence.
Advances in ballistic fabrics from spiderweave venlar threads to ceramic-titanium composite plates enable modern armor to be lightweight, flexible, and concealable. For game rules dealing with armor, see p. 168.

Clothing in 2075 comes with amazing features you’ll likely completely take for granted. Commlinks, music players, and other electronic devices can be woven right into the fabric, powered by interwoven batter ies or special energy-gather ing fabrics. On the other side of the economy, cheap soybased “flats” can be had for five nuyen per ar ticle of clothing from vending machines around the Sprawl. The more money you spend on your threads, the more impressive you look.

- Changing your clothes’ settings is a Free Action, and while it’s not good enough to be camouflage, it can display images, text files, or flat video from your commlink.

Electrochromic threads can change color with voltage, letting you alter the color of your clothing or display text, images, or patterns. This is good for fashion, but great for vanishing into a crowd if you need a quick costume change. You can even get armored clothing in electrochromic styles. It takes a Simple Action to change the settings on your electrochromic clothes, but a couple of Combat Turns to complete the change.

Usually made of synthleather unless you’ve got mad nuyen, this type of jacket (waist-length to duster) never goes out of style and even offers a modicum of protection. Just don’t expect it to stop bullets.

- Looking forward, expect next year’s designs to host amix of Native American and old American styles as theOlympics, held in Seattle, will be the place to highlightfashion in ’76.
- Armanté has always been a leader in the armored fashionfield in terms of quality product, but while they manage tobe aces in that category, their lines have absolutely zerointerchangeability. You obviously cannot mix fashionsfrom different years, as they change radically, but evenmixing pieces from the same year is a challenge. The cutsand styles of their pieces look terrible if mixed.
- Taking a look back, we can see that Armanté lookedto Sub-Saharan Africa to influence their ’74 line, likelydue to a heavy push on the Kilimanjaro Mass Driver—aproject that still hasn’t been fully brought online, I mightadd. I actually thought Armanté was taking a seriousfashion forward leap in ’73 when they came back onthe scene with a totally retro/post-apocalypse-chic lookpulled from the styles of 1920s America blended withsomething out of an episode of Dark Futures.
- Dark Futures! I love that show. The “What If?” take onsome of the recent major world events is awesome.
|
This year’s line is heavily influenced by the worldwide outcry of support for Aztlan against the eco-terrorist forces of Amazonia. Neo-Aztec influences define the styles of Armanté this season. This isn’t surprising to those of us who keep our ears open to the shadows, as Aztechnology was a major supporter for Vitorrio Armanté’s shadow war with Zoé to recover the rights to the line name back in ’73.

- High-end enough to get you into some of the nicestestablishments but not completely out of reach for theaverage runner.
- Problem is, this stuff has become almost a dead giveawayof runners working places that are outside their incomebracket. And on top of that, they have a high enoughresale value that wearing them makes you a target for thescum that live in your neighborhood.
- I like the mix-n-match option Mortimer promotes,especially since their pieces can be mixed across yearswithout creating a total fashion faux-pas. Look for thisstuff on the resale market if you’re on a budget. It workswell with Armand’s “lightly worn” stock, too.
|
Not exactly fashion-forward, but classic enough to always stay near the height of fashion. Mortimer has stuck with the classics, anchored around the venerable Berwick line. All pieces are custom tailored and fit, and I especially love that they include custom tailoring to fit “exceptional physical aspects” of their individual customers. Original pieces have to be sat for with a Mortimer certified tailor.
I have a pretty solid stock of “lightly worn” Mortimer from some of his past lines. They lack the custom-cut features, but they can still have the important effect of making you look classier than you really are. The Crimson Sky and Summit lines from back in the early ’60s have aged quite well. And though they lack some of the wireless perks of many modern armors, they still stop bullets.

- To remind those who aren’t old … err … don’t remember, here’s the descriptions from the original line: Ace of Spades featured a WWII US fighter pilot style, Ace of Clubs went across the ocean for a WWII British bomber pilot style, Ace of Hearts updated the concept to a modern military pilot style, and Ace of Diamonds went into the future with designs based on the Spitfire Resurrection trid series.
- I liked Spitfire Res. Too bad what happened to the lead actor.
- Yup, too bad. ;)
- These new Aces lines may not fit in with the tarot line, but as you might guess, the public doesn’t really care. The styles are catching on with a large audience. Quality is good right now as Shia … Vashon Island tries to get its rep back.
- Best thing about the Steampunk line is the number of gadgets and doodads you can hide in the accessories. Slave them all to a primo link, drop it into silent mode, and you’ve got a sweet and secure setup that everyone thinks is just high-end fashion.
- The Synergist Business line is still the first suit every upand-coming corporate angler makes their life-changing deal in. Most of whom feel they have a little street cred thanks to the pistol they keep tucked snug in the hidden holster built into the clothing.
- Shiawase brought back the Sleeping Tiger line, but word on the street is they put a hell of a lot more nuyen into R&D than they will ever earn back from the armor. The new incarnation builds from the foundation created by the old with an upgraded color-change system and even an adaptive camouflage feature for the right price. I can guarantee that they’re exploring other uses for this technology.

Can’t resist throwing on the little tag line just so we remember who’s in charge of this line. A few years back these lines were hot, but they’ve been adding feature after feature since then so that the things are getting pretty unwieldy. The rather unoriginal Aces High line added the Ace of Cups (high-collar floor-length coat with back shoulder flaring and flowing-but-layered lower half), Ace of Swords (WWII Japanese pilot style, complete with wakizashi scabbard built into the back), Ace of Wands (new-age wizard styling with lots of little pockets for reagents), and Ace of Coins (black juggernaut hide with platinum thread stitching and solid gold accents) this year and have been having quite a resurgence of both the new and old lines. And before you say anything, yes, I know there are no aces in tarot decks. Vashon Island doesn’t care.
Vashon is still pushing the Steampunk line, as well as the old stand-by Synergist Business tag, along with the dime- (well, maybe a little more) a-dozen Actioneer line of suits. With the Shiawase connection, they have brought back the Sleeping Tiger with a vengeance. Each line has its own set of highlights that can draw a different audience.

- To remind those who aren’t old … err … don’t remember, here’s the descriptions from the original line: Ace of Spades featured a WWII US fighter pilot style, Ace of Clubs went across the ocean for a WWII British bomber pilot style, Ace of Hearts updated the concept to a modern military pilot style, and Ace of Diamonds went into the future with designs based on the Spitfire Resurrection trid series.
- I liked Spitfire Res. Too bad what happened to the lead actor.
- Yup, too bad. ;)
- These new Aces lines may not fit in with the tarot line, but as you might guess, the public doesn’t really care. The styles are catching on with a large audience. Quality is good right now as Shia … Vashon Island tries to get its rep back.
- Best thing about the Steampunk line is the number of gadgets and doodads you can hide in the accessories. Slave them all to a primo link, drop it into silent mode, and you’ve got a sweet and secure setup that everyone thinks is just high-end fashion.
- The Synergist Business line is still the first suit every upand-coming corporate angler makes their life-changing deal in. Most of whom feel they have a little street cred thanks to the pistol they keep tucked snug in the hidden holster built into the clothing.
- Shiawase brought back the Sleeping Tiger line, but word on the street is they put a hell of a lot more nuyen into R&D than they will ever earn back from the armor. The new incarnation builds from the foundation created by the old with an upgraded color-change system and even an adaptive camouflage feature for the right price. I can guarantee that they’re exploring other uses for this technology.

Can’t resist throwing on the little tag line just so we remember who’s in charge of this line. A few years back these lines were hot, but they’ve been adding feature after feature since then so that the things are getting pretty unwieldy. The rather unoriginal Aces High line added the Ace of Cups (high-collar floor-length coat with back shoulder flaring and flowing-but-layered lower half), Ace of Swords (WWII Japanese pilot style, complete with wakizashi scabbard built into the back), Ace of Wands (new-age wizard styling with lots of little pockets for reagents), and Ace of Coins (black juggernaut hide with platinum thread stitching and solid gold accents) this year and have been having quite a resurgence of both the new and old lines. And before you say anything, yes, I know there are no aces in tarot decks. Vashon Island doesn’t care.
Vashon is still pushing the Steampunk line, as well as the old stand-by Synergist Business tag, along with the dime- (well, maybe a little more) a-dozen Actioneer line of suits. With the Shiawase connection, they have brought back the Sleeping Tiger with a vengeance. Each line has its own set of highlights that can draw a different audience.

The line’s name pretty much says it all. These suits are usually found on the ultra-secure upper floors of megacorporate headquarters. They’re slick and smooth, and outside of the improvements they’ve had added from Zoé’s armor tech advancements, they haven’t changed much in the past decade.
