The RUST Road Sign Jacket is a partial torso armor piece that adds additional protection to the chest from projectile, melee, and bite damage. Like other pieces from the road sign set, it suffers from a lack of cold and radiation protection.
Having debuted in June 2015, the road sign jacket operates much in the same way that Hide Poncho and Wood Chestplate do. It is only surpassed in projectile defensive stats by the Metal Chest Plate armor piece, though it is considerably cheaper to craft and far more disposable.
The road sign jacket is primarily composed of common items such as Road Signs and Leather. Where this item leaves players wanting is cold and radiation protection, but it is still a wonderful kit piece for roaming gunplay.
They are found in mid to high-tier loot crates and boxes, as well as drops from multiple types of scientists. They can be researched at a Research Table, or through Scrap investment at a Tier 2 Work Bench.
The road sign jacket may be recycled for a small amount of Leather, a single road sign, and a sewing kit and is a prominent item popular to be skinned by the community.
