The Human T2 medium cultural gloves have an elbow pad (for lack of a better term) that sticks out behind the bracer.

I could have sworn that these elbow pads were rigid and kept their position fixed relative to the forearm, but as I was working on some close-up screenshots and realized that they bend around onto the upper arm. This actually causes some fairly noticeable distortion and clipping (as shown in the attachment).

Am I incorrectly remembering how these bracers used to look? If not, I think this is something that should be reverted. I loved how the gloves (and accompanying boots) added some much-needed solid metal to the world of medium armor otherwise dominated by plain leather. Now that the elbow pads are all bendy, they don’t give nearly the impression of structure that I recall them having.

Even if I’m going senile and they’ve always been like this, it might be something nice to look into.

I think this is actually a bug or a change; the boots from the same set do not have the same bendy quality:

Sigh i was thinking about getting the cultural t2 for my ranger. Is there a kittening armor set in this game without graphics bugs/clipping issues?

Can anyone with a human male character check this out? I’m wondering if it was changed only on the female armor or on both.

I have proof that they are not bugged for males. Pics below.

Also, the gloves clip with that SPECIFIC coat you’re using, but not the falconer coat that goes with it. The issue seems to lie in the chestpiece you use. Not the gloves themselves.

So once again: Gloves do not clip with their respective set. They may clip with other armors.

The reason I know this is I have the Trooper’s chestpiece, and they do clip. But not with the Falconer’s, which is shown.

I also purchased the Falconer’s coat and the bending and clipping is still very visible. I think it’s fairly clear now that it’s just the female bracers that are messed up.

On the right, I tried to match the posture in the screenshot you posted. I think it makes the difference very obvious:
