Outfits in Redemption

Outfits in Red Dead Redemption are influenced by historical events and reflect the fashions of the era. Some outfits give John Marston bonuses or special abilities when worn. Accessories such as the bandana, which nullifies changes to the player's Honor, and the Bandolier, which increases the amount of ammo they can carry, can be used in conjunction with outfits.

At the start of the Abigail Marston mission "The Outlaw's Return" when the player obtains the Rancher Clothing, he won't be able to change outfits again until he completes the Jack Marston mission "The Last Enemy That Shall Be Destroyed".

Overview
There are 13 outfits in the main game and an additional 8 which can be obtained through various DLC. Only 9 outfits count towards 100% Completion (DLC outfits do not count for obvious reasons). Some outfits are rewarded for completing gameplay missions. Other outfits must be earned. They are initially unlocked by advancing through gameplay missions, and accumulating Fame and Honor, or by downloading them from DLC or pre-orders. Once unlocked, players must track down various "scraps" by completing mini-games such as Five Finger Fillet and Arm Wrestling. Other scraps must be found, purchased or looted.

Note that you may experience issues with certain outfits (U.S. Marshal Outfit and Rancher Clothing) not being completely in-sync between the Social Club page and your game. Rockstar Games is working to patch this very soon. Don’t worry, as progress earned in your save game will still be properly reflected there once this fix is in place.

Standard Outfits
These 13 outfits are available in all versions of the game.

Others
These 4 outfits, although available in the main game, do not factor into 100% completion.


 * Bureau Uniform: Acquired upon reaching 100% game completion which means only Jack Marston can wear it. Dress like a federal bureau agent and the law won't be able to touch you (complete amnesty from the law).


 * Cowboy Outfit: This is Marston's typical bounty hunter attire, and the one he wears at the beginning of the game. It conveys no particular benefit. Available in the Undead Nightmare DLC.


 * Duster Coat: This is the Cowboy Outfit with a brown duster over it. This is achieved once the player receives the honor level "peacemaker". No additional bonus. Available in the Undead Nightmare DLC.


 * Legend of the West Outfit: Once unlocked, Marston has more Dead-Eye than usual.
