Like my previous (and accepted) bug report about the recipe for Hard Leather Sandals, this armor piece is only obtainable through NPC vendors, therefore an HQ version cannot be found. According to the item description, it is repairable by a lv16 Leathercrafter. The rest of this Disciple of War armor set (Hunting Hat, Cotton Tabard, Cotton Sarouel and Fingerless Hard Leather Gloves) is all craftable by the respective classes. Is this a mistake, or is it intended? I'd like to know.
