How to Get The Legend of the East Outfit in Red Dead Redemption 2

How does a dying outlaw achieve redemption in the west when urbanization is encroaching and corporate interests are blowing away anything resembling morals? By dressing up fancy, that’s how!  Throughout Red Dead Redemption 2, players can dress up Arthur Morgan in a number of different outfits. Heading into Saint Denis to have a cocktail? Put on a pinstriped suit. Off to the frozen mountains up north? Don’t forget to pack a heavy coat. Or perhaps Arthur is doing some moose-hunting, in which case, what is a more appropriate pair of footwear than some moose-hide moccasins?

There are tons of options, whether players are buying clothes from shops, or crafting them by delivering hides to the trapper. Style goes a long way, but some outfits give stat boosts as well, and one outfit does it all. That is the Legend of the East outfit. It’s a great looking set but isn’t so easy to come by. This guide will cover how to get the Legend of the East outfit.
