The tribal headdress is a tribal clothing item that covers the head. It provides a +15% increase to Social Impact, minimal armor for the head and ears, and modest insulation.

Acquisition

Tribal headdresses can be crafted at a Crafting spot, Hand tailor bench, or Electric tailor bench. They require 50 Stuff (Fabric), 6,000 ticks (1.67 mins) of work, and a Crafting of 4. Leathers can't be used to craft tribal headdresses. Tribal headdresses can only be made by tribal factions.

They can also be purchased from Tribal traders, or obtained from the following raider kinds:

Raider Kind	Chance	Average Quality	Health
Trader	100%	Normal	50-180%
Archer chief	100%	Normal	100%
Berserker chief	100%	Normal	100%

Summary

Tribal headdresses' main function is to offer a +15 increase to Social Impact, as they offer both poor armor and insulation. Tribal headdresses are a poor substitute for proper winter or summer headgear, but are a weak best option without complex clothing researched.

Note: Social impact predominately affects the Opinion bonuses and maluses pawn interactions can create, the success chance of Speeches and some rituals. It does NOT affect trade prices as that is instead dependent on Trade Price Improvement, nor does it affect prisoner recruitment, beyond slightly hastening how quickly the prisoners like the warden, as that is instead dependent on Negotiation Ability.

Analysis

Tribal headdresses are worse than bowler hats by almost every measure. While identical in social impact (both +15%), headdresses require significantly more work (100 vs. 30) and significantly more materials (50 vs. 20) to craft, while offering worse insulation from heat (15% vs. 40%).

Versus a cowboy hat they excel only in social impact, falling even further behind in both heat and cold insulation.

All "hat" type apparel give equally dismal armor protection, and, lacking proper helmets of some sort, war masks should be used for that function, or at worst a veil.
